What you can expect

  • Escape the city and discover Aglag Buteel Temple at your own pace. Located near Bornuur in Töv Province, just north of Ulaanbaatar, this unique outdoor Buddhist park is surrounded by peaceful mountain scenery and blends art, spirituality, and nature.

    This is a self-guided discovery. Your local driver will drop you off at the main parking area and wait there while you explore independently. No tour guide is provided, allowing you to enjoy the site at your own pace.

    Follow the well-marked forest trails through the temple grounds, where you'll encounter impressive stone sculptures, intricate rock carvings, and tranquil viewpoints. The full walking loop typically takes 1–2 hours, depending on your pace. Faster walkers can complete it in about an hour, while most visitors spend 90–120 minutes appreciating the artwork, natural surroundings, and taking photos.

    Created by renowned Mongolian artist and Buddhist lama Purevbat, Aglag Buteel is an inspiring open-air sanctuary offering a peaceful escape and a unique opportunity to experience Mongolia's artistic and spiritual heritage in a stunning natural setting.
