"CHINGGIS" TOURIST CAMP:
Located in the Tuul Valley, this majestic setting with its green
hills and flocks of sheep was reminiscent of Ireland. Most people
think of Mongolia as desert, and indeed, the southern part is.
Here, though, about 55 km eastern of Ulaan Baatar it was all
hills, rivers, and valleys with mountains in the background.
Yours truly, Maxwell C. Berins (USA)/
Greetings from London and many thanks for making
the September trip so memorable. As you will see from photo links
below, I have some amazing photos of the "Chinggis" Ger Tourist
Camp in the snow! . I hope I shall see you both next year!
With kind regards,
Catherine Dixon

I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed my Mongolian vacation.
The location of the "Chinggis" tourist ger camp is extremely
beautiful. You should put pictures of the surrounding
area on your website. I think if foreigners saw how beautiful
it was they would like to come and spend a longer time, like
I did, not just pass through. Nara was a wonderful translator
and a big help all around. She helped me have the best vacation
possible. The food was excellent. The horses were better than
American horses. I was never bored. If you want to use anything
I wrote in advertisement , you have my permission.
