Mongolia's Steppe

Mongolia's Steppe is a vast, grassy plain covering much of the country, characterized by wide-open spaces, rolling hills, and minimal trees. It forms part of the Eurasian Steppe, supporting nomadic herding of animals like horses, sheep, and camels due to its rich grasses. The climate is continental, with hot summers and cold winters, making the land both challenging and vital for traditional lifestyles. This expansive landscape has shaped Mongolia’s culture, history, and economy, serving as a symbol of nomadic resilience and providing habitat for unique wildlife adapted to open, grassland environments.
