The nights in Ulaanbaatar are truly beautiful.

Transportation from Beijing to Ulaanbaatar is very convenient, taking only about 2 hours. The locals mostly travel by hailing taxis. If you want to travel conveniently, it is recommended to use the hotel's taxi service. On busy roads, shared scooters are also a good choice. ⏳Recommended attractions: First, you can go to the Zaisan Memorial, climb to the highest point of Ulaanbaatar, and overlook the city's night view; second, it is recommended to go to Terelj National Park, which has magnificent scenery and is a must-visit place; the Genghis Khan Statue Museum and Gandan Monastery are also worth visiting. 📝Tips: Be sure to pay attention to sun protection during your trip, and try the local Mongolian and Korean cuisine. There are many Korean convenience stores locally, which can meet different taste needs.

He not only became our guide, but also let us experience the authentic Mongolian customs. We enjoyed the food and the unique charm of Mongolian KTV. At that moment, language was no longer a barrier.

There are very few cars with taxi signs in the city. When I asked the locals how to take a taxi, they replied that they could just wave their hands on the road, and the cars willing to take you would stop. Later, I followed the locals and waved my hands on the road to get a taxi. I also met a super nice Mongolian guy who took us to many places.
