Unlock the niche country Ulaanbaatar Citywalk guide

Ulaanbaatar, as an important stop on our trip to Mongolia, although the time reserved is not long (about 2 days), there are many angles to explore the beauty of this city. If you want to have a relaxing trip, if you want to unlock an off-the-beaten-path destination, then Ulaanbaatar can be the ideal answer. - ✔Transportation There are very few taxis in the city, and there is traffic congestion everywhere. If you really need to take a taxi, it is recommended to try hailing a car on the road, but most drivers do not speak English well, so you need to use a translation app to communicate. You can also experience the local buses. Regardless of the distance or route, it costs 1 unit per trip. However, the exhaust from the buses is heavy, and they do not drive fast. - ✔Route DAY1: Genghis Khan Square - Genghis Khan Museum - Blue Sky Tower - Ulaanbaatar Landmark - State Department Store DAY2: Gandantegchinlen Monastery - Bogd Khan Winter Palace - Zaisan Memorial - 🌟Genghis Khan Square: Located in the center of Ulaanbaatar, the north side is the seat of the presidential parliament, with a majestic statue of Genghis Khan sitting, and in the center is a statue of Sukhbaatar on horseback. Many locals take wedding photos here, and many children play here. - 🌟Genghis Khan Museum: The museum displays relics from various dynasties of Mongolia. After taking the elevator past a huge portrait of Genghis Khan, photography is not allowed in all exhibition halls. - 🌟Blue Sky Tower: A landmark building in Ulaanbaatar, located opposite Genghis Khan Square. The shape is very modern, resembling the Burj Al Arab, so it is also nicknamed the Mongolian Burj Al Arab by locals. This building itself is a hotel, and you can enjoy the city night view while having dinner at the restaurant on the top floor. - 🌟Ulaanbaatar Landmark: Opposite the Blue Sky Tower is a red sculpture with the English name of Ulaanbaatar. If you are playing nearby, you can stop by to take a photo. - 🌟State Department Store: It is considered a relatively large department store locally. Although it looks quite old from the outside, there are actually many things worth visiting inside. - 🌟Gandantegchinlen Monastery: A famous local attraction, built in 1838, it is a well-known temple locally. Many people come to listen to the scriptures every day, but most of the tourists are from Europe and America. - 🌟Bogd Khan Winter Palace: It actually consists of a winter palace and a summer palace, but the summer palace is under renovation, so currently only the winter palace can be visited. The palace area is not large, and the overall style is purely Chinese. There are places for tourists to rest in the garden. Overall, there are not many visitors. - 🌟Zaisan Memorial: A memorial built by the Soviet Union to commemorate the soldiers who died. This place is an excellent spot to overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire city of Ulaanbaatar.
