The winters here are harsh and long, but when the spring arrives, the city bursts into life. This chaotic capital is a fascinating part of any Mongolian adventure and taking time to admire traditional theatre, sample international cuisine and party till three in the morning can all be enjoyed. This ever-changing city may be the biggest surprise of your Mongolian adventure.
