    World's Oldest National Park is Here in Mongolia.

    Mongolia has the oldest National Park in the world. Lying just south of Ulaanbaatar the Bogd Khan National Park dates its origin to 1778 — it predates Yellowstone by over 100 years. Established by the Mongolian government in 1778, it was originally chartered by Ming Dynasty officials in the 1500s as an area to be kept off-limits to extractive uses, protected for its beauty and sacred nature. #TravelToMongolia #TravelWithStyle #Mongolia #VisitMongolia #Trivia #WorldsOldest #Na

    Country of the last wild horses.

    Mongolian native horses are called takhi, the Mongol word for “spirit,” and have 66 chromosomes, or two more than the average horse. They are the last truly wild horses left on the planet. The Tarpan, a Eurasian subspecies of wild horse found from southern Spain to eastern Russia, died out in the 1920s. #TravelToMongolia #TravelWithStyle #Mongolia #VisitMongolia #Trivia #Takhi #WildHorse

    Wrestling /Bökh/ has been Mongolian tradition for a long time.

    In Mongolia, wrestling is a tradition that goes back hundreds of years, perhaps further than recorded history. Chinese who visited Mongolia in the 7th century A.D. reported watching wrestling matches, and the chronicle of the Franciscan friar Carpini, who was in the Mongol capital of Karakoram in the 13th century, also mentions the sport. #TravelToMongolia #TravelWithStyle #Mongolia #VisitMongolia #Trivia #Wrestling #Naadam

    Mongolian Horseman Might Have Invented Your Favourite Treat

    There is a theory that Mongolian horseman may have invented ice cream, when they took cream in containers made from animal intestines as provisions on long journeys across the Gobi desert in winter. As they galloped, the cream was vigorously shaken, while the sub-zero temperature caused it to freeze. The expansion of the Mongol Empire spread ice cream through China, from where Marco Polo reputedly brought the idea to Italy when he returned from his travels in 1295. #TravelToM
