Today I was invited by Zenee and his wife Byambaa to a day trip to the Dulaankhan mountain
Mongolia is actually full of mountains, from small to quite big (more than 4000 meters)
So we went this morning by car to the mountain, 90 km away from Darkhan.
The weather was not so good but at least it was not snowing :-)
People go there because there is some thermal water that we drink that is supposed to be good for the stomach
In there there is a Buddha carved in the stone next to the water
And we had our glasses!!!
I think that this water is full of minerals because it has quite a strong taste!!
This mountain is in Selenge aimag, which is a quite green place in Mongolia
And this is the mountain full of small rocks.
What is also nice is that there the grass is smelling very very good!!!
And there is a small museum hold by an old man. We can not take pictures but he is making wood carving and also have a lot of dead animals stuffed (I don't know how to say :-))
I was the attraction there, some mongolian tourist were explaining me everything as well as the old man (but he was explaining in mongolian so well …)
And nearby there is a praying tree, this is for the shamanism.
And here a picture of all of us!!
After that we had lunch. But in the car because it was to cold and too windy outside …
Mongolian weather changing every 5 minutes …
So it was meat meat meat and some vegetables :-)
And this is me in the steppe in the middle of nowhere
And me again (oh yeah) near to a river. There are not so many in Mongolia, so nice to take pictures of them!!!
And this is an Ovoo, for shamanism again.
You turn around it 3 times and you also put 3 stones
But some people also leave some artificial leg ….
And after that we went to see some camels.
They are belonging to someone but are free to go where they want
From a distance they were not really disturb by us
But as soon as you get loser they start to move
This is still not so warm season but they are starting to loose their winter fur and their amp is starting growing, easier to ride after!!
Now I am waiting to see what the water is doing :-)
