Mongolia
Overview
Most of Mongolia looks like it did centuries ago - endless open land meeting big sky. Many people still live in gers (round tents), moving with their animals through the seasons. The capital, Ulaanbaatar, is growing fast with new buildings, but drive an hour out and you're back where horses run free.
