Mongolia adventure travel: In one of the last great frontiers of the earth, step back in time and experience life through the eyes of a nomadic people who embrace a beautiful culture inextricably tied to the natural world.
If a Mongolian family owns tavai tolgoi mal (five-animal herd) of sheep, goat, camel, horse and yak/cattle they are considered wealthy indeed. For visitors to this magical country, its true wealth lies in a simpler way of life that touches the spirit of the nomad in us all.
