A Journey Through Mongolia (Full Length Documentary)

Mongolia! A Journey through Mongolia is a travel documentary from our one month trip through the great expanses of the Mongolian plains.
We started the trip with a few days in Ulaanbaatar to experience the sprawling metropolis. We also had a chance to go to Hustai National Park not far from UB to see the last remaining wild horse, the Takhi. Then we went on a ten day adventure to go live with the Tsaatan Reindeer Herder tribe in the very north on the border of Siberia. This was an incredible experience and it was very demanding with multiple days on horseback after a long strenuous multi-day 4WD trip. After a short recovery we went to the eastern part of the country to the Bayan-Ölgii Province to attend the Golden Eagle Festival. This festival has really been the focus of the Mongolian travel in recent time, very much because of Aishol-pan the "Eagle Huntress". We had a chance to meet this incredible girl who is certainly an inspiration to women across the world. After the festival we went and lived with an eagle hunter family deep in the Altai Mountain Range.
We hope you will enjoy this full length travel documentary and please subscribe to our channel for more adventures around the world. If you have any questions or comments please leave them here and we will be happy to answer if we can.

I have been guiding and organizing soft-adventure and cultural tours for 15 years. There are 2 things makes people love Mongolia. 1 is the open space and nature, the second is the hospitable nomadic community. I love my country. I have been traveling over 30 countries in 4 continents I but decided to stay in my home country.

Mongolia. A country of vast and unlimited beauty. A land where a rich cultural heritage reigns supreme. A place where a mesmerizing language flows like music. A nation where its music flies like the wind. Where its people demonstrate their amazing hospitality and hardiness. Where the scents of their mouthwatering cuisine warms the Earth. This is Mongolia, a land of beauty. I hope to meet you, as a country, face to face someday. Much love from the United States. 🇲🇳🇺🇸

When the girl in the video got invited and stayed with family on the road i cried and missed my country so faithfully ! I am here in United states. First i arrived in Chico, California which is very small town. I had to stay there for couple days before i move to Chicago. And rented a room for a week. Suddenly i needed to move out and let the landlord knew. He was so angry and insisted to not giving my deposit back. Almost kicked me out of the room i couldn’t argue because of my language knowledge at a time. I cried a lot and missed my motherland and its people its amazing culture and hospitality that how we treat people we don’t even know. I love my country! And i miss you so much. Can’t wait to be back soon!

Sorry to teach you: Nomadic culture in Mongolia is not brutal. It´s just real nature. I´ve been in Mongolia for five times - totally half a year. Mongolia is the most peaceful place in the world for me. I have discovered more than 30 countries at this planet. I´ve been also a few times in Ethiopia. Also nice experiences. But sorry to tell: never met so many pocket thieves at any other place in the world compared to Ethiopia. But they don´t make a difference :-) They attack everybody: tourists and natives :-) In Ethiopia I was even attacked with an axe, cause I didn´t see the man within the cattles, who didn´t like me to take a picture from the cattles. That I would regards as brutal. But I still love Ethiopia and Buna - Amaseginalehu :-)

If you don't like Mongolia, you Kazakh can go to Kazakhstan and live under prejudice and discrimination or back to china get oppressed and jailed. Kazakh refugees fled to Mongolia begins in 1840 with many refugees arriving from areas now Xin Jiang, Western China. Records suggest that in 1905, there were 1370 Kazakh households, increasing to 1,870 households by 1924 (the year Mongolia adopted socialism). By 1989, the Kazakh population grew to approximately 120,000 individuals... Don’t be Turk nationalist.

I lived in UB for two years. The cheese and Airag I don't miss.

[@AdventureCalls]

Yeah the cheese is pretty rough

[@nemesisvsbrad]

I just don't buy airag from retailers. When I want to, I go to a herder family and drink it right there to be safe. Maybe I am a little paranoid, but not everybody is so "hospitable" and naive as the tour companies would love to portray them. You could drink real airag before 2000's but now some Mongolians would do anything to make some extra dough. You gotta be more cautious these days. I didn't mean to bash tourism but I don't want some clueless foreigner falling sick and badmouth Mongolia, you know what I mean.

[@nemesisvsbrad]

@@AdventureCalls That cheese you thought rough was never meant to be eaten right away. You eat cheese when it's fresh and moisty, but the dried cheese you break it into smaller pieces and just keep it in your mouth probably for hours and slowly suck the interior. When children tend to the cattle in the steppe or mountain, dried cheese become their main food source because its small size makes it ideal to carry around. The ancient Mongol armies didn't require messy supply baggage 'cause they were sucking dried cheese in their mouths and they could produce cheese whenever and wherever cows are around. So the dried cheese had extremely important military application to it which is mostly ignored these days. Dried cheese is never meant to be a delicious treat, it's designed to sustain your energy for the grueling task of tending the cattle. Having that rough cheese in your mouth for hours while tending your cows or sheep is only the half of the whole picture. Unless you are armed or know how to appear tough badass even as children, there's always a chance that a wolf, leopard or other wild beasts plunge at you. Behind every bush or a little hill there's some other form of living thing sneaking to attack if you let down your guard. Being a nomad is not for the faint hearted. Their very existence has been a constant struggle for survival. But modern nomads are lucky to have some access to modern technologies to make their lives far easier than their ancestors. If you think these Mongolian nomads have tough lifestyle then just multiply that toughness like 10 or 20 times and you have a nomadic warrior which filled the ranks of the great horde army of Chingis Khaan. Chingis Khaan himself was so brutal and so cunning that even those warriors pissed in their pants like little kids. And imagine 10000 such a stone faced semi human, semi beast creatures attacking your cities to plunder. Is it not petrifying enough? The greatest horde army assembled was Chingis Khaan's revenge campaign against Kwarezmian Empire with 135 000 warriors and Kwarezmian huge army of 537000 in their own soil was obliterated without trace and grand prince Jelal Ad Din barely escaping to India and the Shah of Kwarezm was abandoned alone and starved to death on a island which is submerged nowadays as if even the nature itself was against that ill-fated empire. That's just hard to imagine but if you examine every little details, the victory could be deciphered and understood. What do you think those military scientists at the Pentagon study? This is what they study. Sorry about the long post though, dried cheese has deep history buried in its past. I just couldn't let it go. Had to say something. I suspect whoever gave you the dry cheese just played prank on you. Just for a little laugh I guess. Who said nomads have no sense of humor? That's most likely. But I don't know the circumstance.
