Mongolia , the cradle of ancient nomadic Mongols is located in the heart of Central Asia .
It borders with the Russia in the north and the People's Republic of China in the south.
Territory -1,566 thousand square kilometers.
Population - 2.5 millions
This beautiful country of forever-blue sky is surrounded by High Altai rocky mountains in the west; dense forested areas in the north, vast plain in the east, and Gobi desert in the south. Present-day Mongolia is famous for its heritage of ancient history, culture and arts, specific traditions and custom, indigenous species of the world's rare animals. Two distinctive features of the Mongolian culture are nomadic way of life and Tibetan Buddhism that widespread as the major religion in Mongolia . The nomadic lifestyle, which has little changed through the passage of time, coupled with the vast expanses of steppes, absolute magnitude, beauty and breathtaking view of the Mongolian scenery, and renowned hospitality have been major attractions for outsiders. 
 The historic heritage of Mongolia is mainly related to Chinggis Khaan, the warrior-statesman, who in the 13th century, united the Mongolian people into a strong nation that controlled most of Asia . The traditional nomadic way of life, based on livestock raising and living in traditional gers, is of great interest to overseas tourists.
We, at Juulchin World Tours Corporation are happy to invite you all to make a wonderful journey across Mongolia , the Great Empire of Chinggis Khaan and the land of Mongols with unique nomadic way of lifestyle.

In the western part of the country, the largest ethnic groups are the Kazakh (5 percent), the Uriankhai-Tuva, the Tsaatan and the Khoton.
Descendants of the Oirat speak a slightly different variation of Mongolian. They are subdivided into several ethnic groups: the Bayat (2.1 percent), the Durvut (2.8 percent), the Zakhchin, Myangat, Ulut and the Torguut.
The Buryat represent 1.7 percent of the population. Among the other groups are the Dariganga (1.3 percent) in the south-east of the country, as well as the Uzemchin and Barga in the west.
