Outer Mongolia is one of the few places on earth where travellers can still explore with a true sense of adventure. Vast tracts of this "land of blue sky" can be discovered on the back of a horse or camel, for an authentic cultural experience in the style of Ghengis Khan's mounted army, or in the comfort of a four-wheel drive. Comprehensive coverage of the opportunities for riding, climbing, fishing, biking and rafting are provided for this top global destination for adventure tourism. Mongolian hospitality is legendary, making responsible travel and Bradt's customary "giving something back" advice especially relevant for travellers. It includes cultural, environmental and adventure-sports travel, festivals such as Naadam, the annual celebration of wrestling, archery and horse riding, and tips on enjoying nomadic "ger" hospitality. It also covers overland travel preparations, exploring the Great Wall of China, the capital, Ulaanbaatar, and useful phrases.
Mongolia is one of the few countries left that can be explored with a true spirit of adventure. Open to the Western world only since 1990, this "Land of Blue Sky" offers excellent horse or camel riding, thrilling festivals such as the renowned Naadam, and a heritage steeped in rich culture and tradition.
This comprehensive guide includes detailed history and natural-history sections, and full coverage of the thriving capital, Ulaanbaatar. And, for those keen to sample the unique pleasures of staying with nomads, it explains how and where to experience the traditional lifestyle of a Mongolian ger.
Inside you will find information on: customs, ceremonies and festivals; special-interest holidays, including riding, hiking, biking and bird watching; in-depth information on national parks, wildlife, conservation and flora; language, pronunciation and useful phrases; Trans-Mongolian/Trans-Siberian railway; 37 clear, detailed maps.
