I stayed in Ulaanbaatar this week. There are so many fun places to explore in this big city, so it was an eventful time regardless! For example, I went to the Choijin Lama temple museum, which makes you feel like you are in a different, ancient world--even though you are still in the city!
So far, I have walked many miles in Ulaanbaatar, but I have not left the capital city yet. I just arrived here, so I have many fun adventures planned. Stay tuned!
I walked everywhere. In Ulaanbaatar, most of the places I need to go are very close to each other, and I can walk anywhere in under 30 minutes. It's great exercise, too!
This week has been a little too cold for me to spend much time outdoors, but a few weeks ago, I went hiking with some friends on Bogd Khan mountain! Bogd Khan mountain is a very sacred place looking over the capital city of Ulaanbaatar. Many people enjoy camping here in the warmer months, and you can spot all kinds of wildlife then, including deer, lynx, wild boar and birds!
