Travel with any Mongolian tours and you will find adventure around every turn. There are sights your entire vacation party will enjoy. One of your first stops should be to gaze at the finely crafted gold plate statue in the Gandan Monastery it is of the Buddha Megjid Janraiseg and is truly something you will want to photograph for your travel scrapbook.

You will also enjoy the Museum of Natural History too. You cannot miss the sights at the Sukhbaatar Square either. The elaborate building which surround the square are truly amazing, like the Cultural Palace and the National Opera Theater. Next head over to Eagle valley for some treasures of the Gobi.

Yolem Am is a true tourist attraction in the Gobi Desert. Who would believe you if you did not have pictures as proof that there are actual glaciers and ice formations within the desert sands. There are also panoramic meadows filled with native grasses and wild flowers as well. You can eve have a sighting of the local sheep with great horns called Argalis.

A relaxing journey can be had to the Hot Spa and Springs of Tsenkher. Here you can enjoy the sulphur hot springs which is a steady 192 degrees year round. For your convenience they also have indoor baths and showers. In the Province of Bayan Ogli in the town of Ulgii which is very remote you will see a true Nomadic culture's everyday life.

Next you can venture over to Ulgii where Nomads of the tribe called Kazakh live. This is a unique people with divers cultures and they invite tourists into their province and share their daily life with them. If your lucky you may even be serenaded by songs of praise called throat songs.

On some Mongolian tours you can spend the night with Nomads in their real traditional Ger. These Nomads actually breed Bactrian two-humped camels for a living so you will be taught their customs, everyday activities and more. For the adventurous you can even ride a camel as well.
