This place is really awsome. After leaving the city of Kharakhorum, you can go up a hill to a monument that overlooks the city. If you look into the other direction, then you see the river Orkhon like blue snake flowing in the middle of a lush green valley between two hill ranges. If you drive upstream on the dirt road, you will meet quite a few nomadic families looking after their herds of goats, sheep, cows or horses and crossing the river on horseback. On hot summer days the horses love standing in the cold water to cool down. There are a lot of wild animals too: birds of prey, mice and other small mammals and some other water birds too. There are even trees here, which is not very common sight in Central Mongolia. As you go further upstream you even meet herds of yaks and the place starts to look like Tibet... besides some gers here and there, and the dirt road of course, there’s no sight of humans, just beautiful intact nature wherever you look. We even experienced a massive thunderstorm coming out of the mountains, across the river and pass right over our camp. It was an amazing experience. I would recommend spending more days and nights discovering this area, especially if you love taking pictures.

In a pleasant verdant wooded area, some yurts camps with equipment and baths with a less hot temperature have been set up for the travellers, but also for the nomads and the inhabitants of Ulan Bator who are very keen on these baths. Tsenkher hot springs have healing properties notably on articular diseases and nervous system’s diseases. Composition: sodium carbonate, hydrocarbonate, sulfate, fluorite, hydrogen sulfide.
