Mongolia Travel Guide 2026: Places to Visit and Mongolian Culture

Mongolia is a vast steppe country between China and Russia, and its currency is the tögrög. June to August is the most comfortable time to go, because winters are very cold. The capital, Ulaanbaatar, is the largest city. In the countryside, nomadic life continues in felt tents called gers.

Places to visit

  • Karakorum: the settlement that served as the imperial capital under Genghis Khan, home to the Erdene Zuu Monastery and the Karakorum Museum.
  • Orkhon Inscriptions: the Bilge Khagan and Kül Tigin monuments, raised in the 8th century, are among the oldest known written Turkic documents.
  • Terelj National Park: rock formations, the Aryabal Meditation Temple on a hillside and the 40 metre equestrian statue of Genghis Khan.
  • Khustai National Park: the natural habitat of the Przewalski horses, called takhi.

Planning tips

The road from Ulaanbaatar to Karakorum takes 6 to 7 hours. Nights on the steppe are spent in ger camps, so pack warm clothes even in summer.
