Nomadic family & Manzushir Monastery (Day tour)

Experience nomadic lifestyle at the home of local nomad family. Visit Manzushir monastery & Tuv province's museum

Overiew

    Manzushir Monastery, located on the southern slope of the Bogd Khan Mountain, just 45 kilometers from Ulaanbaatar, is a captivating destination with a rich history. Established in 1773 to honor the Bodhisattva Manzushir, it sits in a serene pine-covered valley at 1800 meters altitude, offering a picturesque and tranquil setting. Despite suffering during the Soviet Era and the communist purge in 1937, the partially restored main temple still stands today. The area also serves as a starting point for hiking to the peak of Bogd Khan Mountain and features a small natural museum created by locals, making it an excellent spot for trekking and spiritual retreats.
