Northern Mongolia Travel Guide

I think this is reference to Amarbayasgalant Monastery.... built at the request of the Manchurian Emperor in the early 1700s it was one of a few (out of 978) monasteries that survived the brutal fate of the revolution in the 1921s till 1989. Its operational to the old traditions, all monks live on site and its situated next to the Irvin River/Mountain Valley. Ger to Ger Operates here in association with nomdic herders and the monastery itself: http://www.gertoger.org

Ok, one of my personal favorite provinces of Mongolia is Selenge! Check out http://www.gertoger.org as we do also operate here! 1. horseback expeditions to Amarbayasgalant Monestary
2. raft or canoe the Orhon River
3. base camp it a "The Valley of the Kings"
4. homestay with nomads!
5. Great trekking! Just everything for the active explorer who loves cultural eco adventures!

transit point to go to UB by plane or due north to Khuvgsul Lake, Mongolia's largest inland fresh water lake... this lake is amazing and you should plan to spend about a week here. 1. Canoeing or kayaking 2. Horseback riding 3. trekking and hiking 4. visit nomadic families etc.
