Ulaanbaatar, despite its challenges, stands as the beating heart of modern Mongolia, pulsating with contemporary urban life. Home to more than half of the city’s residents, the semi-formal ger districts – the original form of Ulaanbaatar – characterised by a unique cultural blend of traditional nomadic heritage and modern urbanism.
Our Urban Lives experience takes you beyond the conventional tourist path. Instead, you’ll be welcomed by local Mongolians who not only inhabit the ger districts but also actively strive to enhance and develop their communities. Through their stories and firsthand experiences, you’ll gain insight into the distinctive atmosphere and spirit of the ger district areas. By the end of the day, you’ll come to appreciate that, despite the challenges, these areas are teeming with rich culture, aspirations, and ambitions.
Partnering with an inspiring community-based initiative located within the ger districts, we ensure that your visit as our guest leaves a positive impact on the community. So, leave behind any preconceived notions and embrace the opportunity to be surprised and delighted by the authentic experiences awaiting you in the heart of Ulaanbaatar’s urban landscape.
