Beautiful landscape. I experienced good horse riding here. I loved it. Turtle shaped rock and meditation temple are nice.

I came during autumn when the trees are shedding yellow and casting beautiful shades of life beside the running Tuul river. There are resorts which offer stays in Ger or normal hotel rooms, serving stone-cooked lamb meat… a great getaway with friends or family during the weekend or for a party!

The area is quite scenic. Rock formations are a must for anyone traveling there. Also, for people looking to stay in the area for a number of days or for a few hours, camps are quite accommodating.
