    The monastery of Erdenezuu was the first big monastery on the territory of today's Mongolia 🇲🇳!

    It was not just a meeting place for Buddhist monks, but also a safe fortress with its mighty enclosing walls 🏰.

    An extensive tour of the monastery complex is a must as soon as you come to Kharkhorin.

    The construction period took over 300 years. Twice, in the 17th and 18th centuries, the monastery was badly damaged in battles and was rebuilt and expanded in the years 1760 to 1796 and 1806 to 1814.
