Long-awaited Mongolia travel begins in the Gobi Desert
As we all had learnt about the country named Mongolia in our middle schools, all of us were excited to travel around the vast country with an astonishing history and spectacular nature. We met our perfect team consisting of guides Chimgee and Ariuka; as well as our drivers Nasaa and Uugii. There the long-awaited journey began, and we departed from our hotel at 8:53 am on the 18th of June.
On the way to the airport, the traffic was pretty bad however we have spent our time talking about the current lifestyle in Ub and Overall Mongolia. Also, we had a precious time to introduce ourselves carefully and spoke about our occupation and the purpose to visit Mongolia.
We said that we understand the current Mongolian situation because Korea had also gone through this kind of times in their history in 1970-1980s. Then we stopped by Sansar Supermarket, which is one of the big supermarket chains in Mongolia as the guide said. We didn’t buy anything, not even a snack. However, only ladies bought snacks and other things.
Moreover, 10:30 it is time to depart from UB. We have filled our car bank and ready for the long drive to White Stupa.
One of the fantastic things our tour was that we are not just driving around the beautiful nature we have an excellent opportunity to enjoy it by having an outdoor lunch which flavouring the journey with a little bit of camping. Moreover, there we found out that our guide, Chimgee, is a super talented chef.
Around 7:00 pm, Finally we arrived at our very first camp, Stupa of Gobi. The driving in off-road was like a rollercoaster has been an ultimate experience. All of us enjoyed the fun and adventurous road where we can see the beautiful land of Mongolia and tribes of live stocks.
On the way to camp, tourists saw the horse and camels grazing freely that make us felt the stress less and free nomadic lifestyle.
Then the moment, we have waited for long, finally came at 7:20 pm. All of our tourists are excited to see wonderful White Stupa, which has an unbelievable hidden story about how it can exist in the middle of gobi.
The incredible natural wonder has been impressive beauty for our tourists. We enjoyed the nature a lot and spent almost an hour to take a picture. After a long drive, all of us must have been tired. However, natural beauty has refreshed our strength more powerfully.
