About the trip
On the first day of the spring, Mongolians celebrate Lunar New Year for 3 days. This holiday is all about family and ancestry. After the challenging winter, locals celebrate and make a tour between their family and friends. Join a local family who are delighted to adopt you for a few days, dress up in traditional costume, pocket the snuff bottle, make your first step of the year in the right direction advised by the Buddhist astrologists, share the first meal with your family, and then leave for a grand tour to visit all the elders in the family, even the ones who live in the countryside.
The only way to get a full experience and get the deepest meaning of this special time is to do what locals do, become a member of their family, and you will have the experience not many dared. Step out of your comfort…
