Varela's travel journal

Ulaanbaatar, or Ulan Bator, in Mongolia, was my next destination, it was actually very interesting to learn about its geography formerly.
Ulan Bator, formerly known as Urga or Niislel Khureheh, capital and largest city of Mongolia. It is situated on the Tuul River on a windswept plateau at an elevation of 4,430 feet (1,350 m).

I also visited the Temple of Vazhrakhara, the first stone church of the Gandan monastery. The main altar in this temple is the statue of Tara Vazdra, created by the great Zanazabar.
Sadly, inside this temple it is prohibited to take photographs.
