Map of the inside of the giant status of Genghis Khan on the bank of the Tuul river near Ulaanbaatar. Visitors can walk around on top of the horse’s head, and there is a museum inside the base.

Zuun Taiga, Mongolia, 2007

Nachdem Anne und ich im PA Office waren (und es dort Feueralarm gab weil es im Müllschacht brannte) ging es zum Zaisan Monument noch mit Nao, Mary-Anne, Will und Cherlyn (aus Singapor). Sieht sehr hübsch aus auch wenn es wohl nur aus Soviet-Propaganda besteht. Aber man hat einen sehr netten Ausblick auf UB. Es war zudem herrlich sonnig und ich bin etwas braun geworden. Yai :D Und wir hatten viel Spaß beim Fotos machen und rumblödeln, daher: Fotospam. Hooray.
