Introducing Uliastai

Along with Khovd, Uliastai is one of Mongolia’s oldest cities, founded by the Manchus during their reign in Mongolia. The old garrison is long gone but the town has retained a pleasant, antiquated feel, with a tree-lined main street and rows of one-storey shops and restaurants. Rivers flowing nearby and a lush valley surrounded by mountains complete the picture, making this an enjoyable place to stay while you consider the direction of your next plunge.
