From Bayankhongor Travel Site

Та Монголоор уншмаар байвал БАЯНХОНГОР МОНГОЛ САЙТ руу ороод үзээрэй.

Welcome

Beautiful Bayankhongor Province is located in the central-western part of Mongolia. "Bayan" means rich and "khongor" sometimes means darling. With an area of 116 thousand square kilometers, Bayankhongor sure has a lot of darling, darling.

Bayankhongor encompasses three major geographical zones including a lush northern forest zone (hangai), the central grass steppe zone and the awe inspiring Gobi Desert zone. There are many attractions to see in Bayankhongor including natural sites like the Shargaljuut Hot Springs and man-made structures like the Chess Stones of Erdentsogt. In addition there is a wealth of Flora and Fauna including such rare species as the Gobi Bear.

The information on this site is useful for independent travelers, group travelers, you crazy Mongol Rally folk, you crazier people that follow Mongol Rally folk and the many of you that visit Bayankhongor outfitted with refurbished WWII resupply vehicles in case Chinggis' Mongol hordes resurface.

Thanks,

Баянхонгор
