Introducing Mandalgov

Mandalgov came into existence in 1942 and originally consisted of just 40 gers. Today, it’s a sleepy town that offers the usual amenities for an aimag capital: a hotel, a monastery, a museum and a few shops. It also has a useful Ger to Ger information office. A walk to the top of Mandalin Khar Ovoo, just north of the town centre, affords sweeping views of the bleak terrain. There is more to see in western Dundgov, but Mandalgov is a useful stop-off on the way to Dalanzadgad in Ömnögov.
