Introducing Bulgan City

Bulgan is one of Mongolia’s prettiest aimag capitals. There is a grassy pine-clad park in the middle of town and a lazy main street where you are just as likely to see a horseman as you are a passing vehicle. With Erdenet so close by, the town has never had a chance to develop much – there are only a couple of small hotels and restaurants and very few jeeps. As a quiet backwater it’s not a bad place to spend a night if you are travelling between Mörön and Ulaanbaatar.
