  This monastery can be dated back to 1585, built from the ruins of Genghis Khan's ancient capital. Today, it is still used as an active monastery. Worth a visit.  more »

  This place is a must if you're interested in getting to know about buddhism in Mongolia. The monastery's history even connects to Karakorum, the ancient Mongol empire capital, and the Mongolian history itself. It's an amazing place from the historical heritage point of view. So make sure you're with a knowledgeable guide who can tell you not only what's there inside the monastery stupas, but also other stunning stories. Very sad history tho 😥 The only drawback is that it's not that touristee. Recommended to visit in summer. Overall it's a good place.
