Bayanbulag (Bayankhongor) is the capital of the Bayankhongor Province of Mongolia and is located in the west-central part of the country, about 630 kilometers from the capital city of Ulaanbaatar. The city is situated at the junction of the Altai Mountains and the Gobi Desert, at an average altitude of about 1,850 meters above sea level, and has a typical continental climate with short warm summers and cold, dry winters. With a population of about 30,000, predominantly Mongolian, and an economy based on animal husbandry, agriculture and small-scale trade, tourism has been on the rise in recent years, attracting tourists to explore the surrounding natural landscapes and traditional culture.
Bayanbulag is known for its rich cultural heritage and natural beauty, with famous sand dunes, hot springs and wildlife reserves such as the Gobi Bear Nature Reserve nearby. The city has a museum showcasing the history of the region, and its inhabitants tend to live a nomadic lifestyle, preserving traditional yurts and horse-racing practices. As an important transportation hub in western Mongolia, it is connected to a number of provinces, but the infrastructure is relatively simple and the pace of life is slow, reflecting the tranquility and authenticity of the Mongolian steppe.
