September Travel

Last night, I impulsively booked my flight, and by 6 AM, I was on my way. I flew from Ulaanbaatar to Murun and then continued the journey for over an hour to reach the serene shores of Khoton Lake. The lake's crystal-clear waters are reminiscent of Southeast Asia's glassy seas. The sight took my breath away, and I found myself wanting to sit and lose myself in daydreams amidst the natural splendor!
