The tourism potential of this country is still far from ideal. Seasoned and experienced travelers who want new sensations decide to go to rest in the endless Mongolian steppes. The cost of living in Mongolia is not so high, especially when compared to neighboring China.
In Mongolia, problems of a different plan may arise - in some periods it is difficult to book a room because of the grandiose cultural festivals that gather fans from all over the world.
Ulan Bator invites
This amazing capital is home to 40% of the country's population. Accordingly, most tourists live in the city or its surroundings, seeing the sights and monuments of ancient Mongolian history.
In Ulaanbaatar, you can absolutely safely trust the stars located on the facade of the hotel, which determine its class. 5 * hotels are ready to give a single room to a tourist for $ 150 and more (one night stay), their less eminent colleagues set the price already at $ 80-100.
Although sometimes you can come across a super offer from the administration of a hotel and spend the night in the chic atmosphere of a four-star hotel for only $ 70. If comfort is not very important, you want to save on accommodation and spend money on excursions, you can find accommodation for $ 30, and breakfast will also be included in the price.
The life of a real Mongol
An unforgettable experience is caused by the national dwelling - the yurt. Nomadic Mongolia knows what a lonely traveler feels in the endless steppe, so the hospitality is at the highest level. Any tourist can now spend a night or a week in a real Mongolian yurt. True, you need to take care of this in advance, since such accommodation options are very popular with tourists, and there are not enough yurts for everyone.
There are also democratic accommodation options for real travelers - guest houses and tourist centers. During the high season, it is almost impossible to get here, seats are booked several months in advance. In the low season, there are only a few who want to relax.
Outside the capital
Since the population of Mongolia is mainly concentrated in the capital, most of the hotels are located here. Small hotels can be found in regions, small towns like Darkhan or Erdenet. And tourists who come to Gutsuurt, where the largest gold deposit is located, are forced to return to Ulan Bator for the night.
