Biger Red Yabar

The Gobi


About 28km before you reach Biger (74km from Altai), you'll see these striking, red-coloured cliffs off to your right (south). Their crenellated formation is accentuated in early-morning or late-afternoon light, and the snow-capped backdrop completes a dramatic scene.

The official road-side sign for these monastery ruins states that they are around 750 years old. We doubt they are quite that old, but they're interesting…
