A picturesque Mountain Baga Gazriin Chuluu is one of the most attractive areas of the Gobi desert
Baga Gazriin Chuluu, literally means “Rocks of the small lands”. It is a large, maze like area of granite rock formations, harboring many secrets. Hidden among the large rocks the ruins of a small 17th century monastery and a small cave, where local people make offerings, are waiting to be explored. This picturesque area is also habitat to various wildlife. With some luck we might see the rare Siberian Ibex and various raptors.
We travel in one of the emptiest areas of Mongolia. Between rock desert and semi-arid steppes, we reach the white stupa, Tsagaan suvarga. For centuries, this 30-metres (98,43 feet) high, abrupt, stupa-shaped mountain, is honoured by the Mongolians. The traveller will be surprised by the sumptuous lunar landscapes that evoke the end of the world, and by the many fossils. This area was totally covered by the sea a few million years ago.
