	Naadam Adventure, 10 Days			from
				$1775*
	HIGHLIGHTS: Mongolia - Naadam Festival. Mongolia's ancient capital We begin in Ulaanbaatar and on the first evening are treated to a wonderful show of traditional arts, music and song, including the unforgettable "throat-singing' as a welcome to Mongolia. Beyond the capital we journey to Kharkhorin, the capital of Mongolia in the 13th century during the rule of Genghis Khan. The main attraction is Erdene Zuu Hiid Monastery, built in 1586, the largest monastery and first Buddhist centre in Mongolia. Over 100 temples were constructed, but most were destroyed during the Soviet era, nevertheless, Erdene Zuu Hiid retains much of its former glory, and is a remarkable sight to visit. We spend two nights here in traditional Mongolian gers. We break our return journey at the Khustai National Park. Here Przewalski horses, known locally as 'takhi', were reintroduced after previously becoming extinct in their native land. Another night in gers, with plenty of time to relax before returning to the capital. The Naadam Festival We make our way with the crowds to the Naadam stadium for the spectacular opening ceremony. Taking our place for the procession, we see not only the athletes, but monks, officials and local celebrities. The first rounds of wrestling and archery begin with horseracing the focus on the second day. These races are the domain of younger children, who compete for the title 'tumnii ekh' ('Leader of Ten Thousand'). Join the crowds in cheering the winners, and singing songs to the losers and mingle with the locals - often taking as much pleasure from watching the audience as observing the competitors! As the festival draws to a close, we travel to the splendid alpine scenery of Terelj National Park. Terelj National park After our busy days at the Naadam, we enjoy tranquil surroundings of this countryside retreat. After a night in traditional gers - accommodation we are now quite familiar with - we visit a local family to experience their nomadic lifestyle firsthand. There are opportunities for hiking, or simply relaxing and enjoying the scenery. Returning to Ulaanbaatar and with the city and its inhabitants still recovering from the festivities, we say our goodbyes to Mongolia.
