Highlights:
- 1 of Mongolia's most vibrant cities with its own distinct and unique culture
- Perfect hub for exploring the rest of the Gobi desert
Travel from Ulaanbaatar:
8 hour drive on good roads or flights running directly nearly every day year round
Advice:
The city itself is well worth a visit with numerous museums, galleries, shops and pretty promenades dating back to the early socialist era
From here you can easily visit nearby tourist attractions like Yolyn Am, Tsagaan Suvarga and Bayanzag
Dalanzadgad is a fascinating city in the heart of the Gobi desert but do not expect too much in the way of western comfort, think of it more as a town on the frontier with adventure!
