Few tourists come to Mongolia without visiting its most iconic landmark, a 40m-high glistening silver Chinggis Khaan statue. Constructed in 2008 from stainless steel, the dramatic statue, built with private funds, has a lift (elevator) rising up its tail, from where there are steps to the horse’s head. It was built here, so the legend goes, because this was the spot where Chinggis Khaan found a golden whip.
The complex includes an impressive museum (with Hunnu artefacts and items from the Mongol empire), a cafe and a souvenir shop. A short film describes how the monument was built. For an extra T3000 you can don Chinggis Khaan armour for a photo shoot in front of an enormous Mongolian boot, which stands at 9m high. There's ger accommodation, too, if for some reason you want to stay the night. It's located just off the main road between Nalaikh and Erdene, at a place called Tsonjin Boldog. A round trip in a taxi from Ulaanbaatar will set you back about T80,000. Located just up the road is the statue of Chinggis Khan's mother, Hoelun, who gazes back towards her son.
GORKHI-TERELJ National Park is considered one of the most beautiful worth visiting places for travelers who wanted to rest in surroundings near UB. If you like adventure activities such as hiking, rafting, horse or camel riding and visiting nomad family and stay overnight in traditional Ger dwelling within short period, this is the real place to fulfill your wishes.
Aryaval meditation centre was inaugurated in summer 2006 after many years of construction. It’s located within Gorkhi-Terelj National Park, about 10 kilometres (6,21 miles) from the entrance. From the turtle rock, you can make a pleasant hike (about 45 minutes). Located on the hillside of a mountain covered with larches and granite rock, Aryaval meditation centre will delight the travellers. To reach the temple, you will have to pass a small wooden bridge on which a sign tells: ”the bridge that leads beyond wisdom”. The main temple is dedicated to Kalachakra philosophy, ”wheel of time”. The temple contains a thangka representing the myth of the Shambhala (a thangka is a painting on cotton or silk; Shambhala is, according to Buddhist philosophy, a fabulous place hidden somewhere in Asia), a Kalachakra mandala, and other objects bound to this belief. On the ground floor of this building, you can admire a ”gallery of Buddhist philosophy”, with 220 original paintings of the artist.

This ia a great day trip feom Ulaanbaatar. Our guides George and Baga were awesome and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend this tour! The guides were super helpful and nice. We visited all the attractions on the itinerary. Beautiful scenery, and really something everyone should do! At first, I was having trouble finding guides that were reasonably priced, and I'd say this one def was! So definitely a good value for money. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. SUPER NICE GUIDES that will take pics of u and help u pose (for those that dont know how to).
A truly interesting excursion with a total of 11 participants from 7 countries. Everything was perfect, the two guides were friendly and always helpful. The only downside is that Ulaanbaatar is an absolute traffic nightmare. I have rarely seen such a congested metropolis, but of course, the organizer cannot be blamed for that; we must have spent a total of 2-3 hours in various traffic jams.
Visiting the statue was not just about seeing the artwork; it was a complete cultural experience. I booked the tour with Amazing Mongolia. My guide, degi, was excellent—his English is perfect, and his passion for Mongolian history brought the giant steel statue to life.
My friends and I booked a one-day tour and it exceeded all expectations! The itinerary covered all the must-see attractions and included a delightful experience of tasting local Mongolian cuisine. A special shoutout goes to our guide, who also expertly handled the driving duties. His knowledge of the area was impressive, and he shared fascinating insights into Chinggis Khaan and Mongolian history. His passion for the subject truly shone through, making the trip not only enjoyable but also educational. This tour was worth every moment and I can't recommend it highly enough. If you're looking for an enriching and immersive experience, this is it!
This trip was certainly one for the memory bank. Amazing statue and museum. Our guide was super passionate and brought enthusiasm in his presentation. He really made the tour more interesting and brought the Mongolian history to life with his great attitude. The national park/turtle rock was OK but the highlight was the statue. Lunch was traditional and nice, again the guide's attitude made the day fun. Comfortable van to travel in and a small group was great. Only downside was the expensive souvenir shop - but that's nothing to do with the tour operator.
This was an awesome tour! Our guide, Bayur, is an incredible storyteller. He made the history of Mongolia come to live by describing events, important people and battles in vivid detail. It was a lot of fun. He was also very patient and a good driver. At the end of our tour, we had trouble locating our lodging. He offered to stay with us until we found where we were going. It was a nice very nice gesture. I highly recommend anyone who visits Mongolia to get the tour with him. You'll never forget your experience.
The trip is very exciting. It is a great choice and a very nice relaxing day learning history and enjoying nature as well.
Excellent tour . ~Bayar Agvaan was a great tour guide and had great in depth knowledge of the history and culture of Mongolia. I highly recommend this tour operator .
Friendly and professional staff. The tour agency offers day trips at a fair price. Our guide (Bayar) was knowledgeable and made our trip very enjoyable!
