CAVES OF GALTAI AGUI

A succession of openings in the Tsagaan Chuluut range. The mountain is sacred, and the caves, the main one of which is more than 80 meters deep, are said to have been used for medicinal purposes by the local shamans. Due to their proximity to the Russian border, a special permit is required to visit them. The Dalal border guard barracks is able to give it, but no one speaks English there. It is also possible to obtain this permit in Ulaanbaatar at the Border Office.
