[Trip Moment Delivery.🗞️] Recommended 1-day course in Terelj, Mongolia!✈️ 🛄ㅣRecommended 1-day course in Terelj, Mongolia🚗 1. Genghis Khan Statue 2. Turtle Rock 3. Aryabal Monastery 4. Horseback Riding ✅️ | Genghis Khan Statue Complex 🏇✨ The first destination is the Genghis Khan Statue, the world's largest equestrian statue! It looks magnificent from afar, but when you get closer, your mouth will drop open. The figure of Genghis Khan wearing silver armor and riding a horse is very majestic, and the inside of the statue is decorated like a museum, so you can learn about Mongolian history. If you take the elevator to the observatory above the statue, you can see the wide open grassland in 360 degrees... The view is truly spectacular. It was the moment when I thought, "This is Mongolia!" The magnificence of nature and the legend of Genghis Khan were combined to create a moving experience. - ✅️ | Turtle Rock 🐢⛰️ The second is a work of art created by nature, Turtle Rock! A rock that really looks like a turtle is located right in the middle of a peaceful meadow. It is said to be a symbol of good luck in this area, so I made a wish in front of Turtle Rock. The area near the rock is quiet and the air is refreshing, so it is a perfect spot to take a break. I took a commemorative photo next to the rock and was able to feel relaxed while staying in nature for a while. ✅️ | Ariyabal Temple 🕉️️🌄 The third place I visited was Ariyabal Temple located in the mountains. The path up to the temple is quite steep and there are many stairs, but there are Buddhist sayings and phrases to calm the mind written on the side of the road as I walked up, so my mind was calm the whole time. When I arrived at the temple and looked down at the surrounding scenery, I felt really refreshed! The quiet temple bell, the sound of the wind, the sound of birds… everything was healing. The temple itself is beautiful, and Mongolian traditions and Buddhism are well-blended, so I was able to feel a moment of meditation. ✅️ | Horseback Riding Experience 🐎💨 The last highlight was the horseback riding experience! I think the experience of riding a horse through the Mongolian grasslands will be something I will remember for the rest of my life. I was a little nervous at first, but the horses were so gentle and the guide was kind, so I quickly became comfortable. The scenery from the horseback ride was another world. The wind blowing through the grasslands, the sound of horse hooves, the land spread out under the blue sky… I felt like I was the main character in a movie! It was a short time, but it was a moment where I could really feel this land while communing with Mongolian nature. ✅️ | Overall It was only one day, but it was a really fulfilling and profound trip. It was a course that combined historical emotion, the peacefulness of nature, and cultural experiences. If you are traveling to Mongolia, I definitely recommend the Terelj 1-day tour! It was the first time I felt that a day could be this full~🫠 #Travel itinerary #Mongolia travel recommendation #Mongolia tour #Terelj National Park #mongolia #Terelj

Ariyabal Monastery in Terelj National Park, Mongolia. Many temples in Mongolia disappeared during the Russian military regime due to the suppression of Buddhism, but this is said to be one of the few old temples that survived that history. It is located on a mountainside about 1km from the entrance to Terelj National Park, so it takes a long walk to get to the temple. The scenery was so beautiful that I didn't even feel tired of going up because I was looking at it. #AriyabalMonastery #Mongolia #MongolianMonastery #TereljNationalPark

About an hour's drive from Ulaanbaatar, Terelj is Mongolia's premier tourist destination. You can enjoy various sceneries such as rivers and mountains in Inner Terelj, and admire the landscape dotted with large rocks. There are also tourist spots like Turtle Rock and Aryabal Temple. Turtle Rock appears shortly after entering Terelj National Park. The rock, made of large orthoclase granite pegmatite, is shaped like a giant turtle and stands about 15 meters tall, independently located at the foot of a mountain. You can climb up to the base of its neck and enjoy a small adventure by passing under the rock. Aryabal Temple's approach starts with a grassland, followed by a suspension bridge, and finally stone steps leading to the main hall. There are also prayer wheels used in Tibetan Buddhism, and the temple is still supported by strong faith.
