The Hongor Els Sand Dunes, Mongolia’s largest area of dunes, stretches for 180 kilometers. Bordered at its northern edge by the bank of the Hongoriin River, some of the peaks of the dunes tower 250 feet. There is an oasis in this region, which is rich in vegetation and supplies drinking water for the surrounding animal populations.
