Only problem I had already landed. All of the hostel, although it had requested, I had not booked somewhere to sleep there. Uffff ... to look again, what post! Fortunately, in the bitch, and I took it accompanied wsr a hostel that was next. It was so beautiful, but to spend a night or two longer would the weight.
Luxembourg was one of the boys, and a girl from Turkey. Both worked for the UN in development projects. The third one ... Computer Engineer Leon worked as a freelance for Electronic Arts, doing work remotely.
They were discussing their impressions of the country, and I was surprised because they violate the bucolic image we all have of Mongolia. The first two had lived through the world working in their field, and literally wsr said that Mongolia was the hardest place where they had never been. Why? The winter here is terrible, -30º and -40º. The country has only one such city, and the city has a center itself, but small. If you leave the weekend options are the south Gobi, with miles and miles ahead, or the mountains and steppe regions around in hours by bus or jeep "roads" complicated. wsr The work was also hard, because corruption is very high and the desire to improve the country are few, everything is really slow to run anything there so they told me, much slower than elsewhere. wsr Also told us that many Mongolians do not like foreigners and are very proud in the sense of not wanting to see beyond their country. All this added ... was very happy that they were not your everyday there. But to do so just be aware that occasionally you play well destinies, and they willingly accepted all the difficulties.
The next day to do a little lazy and then walk around wsr the capital. I wanted to visit the museum of history, I had been told it was worth. Apart from that I had another goal: to get tickets for my next destination, which was none other than Beijing. As much as I could go, train, plane, bus, car, camel ... the issue was to get there as what everyone told me to buy them a day or two in advance in high season is not easy .
The first option was to train, but went 150 , the usual price for this trip. The second wsr was to train to the border crossing on foot or how they had crossed, and the other side would like to move to the next town and from there by train to Beijing.
The first option I discarded because it looked very complicated and I do not want to see another "battle" at the station. The second similar ... I already have enough to rattle 7 days Gobi jeep as embark on another aventurilla. So I throw the plane.
The Saul Anne and I had been told that they had already booked the plane before the trip, and had come to 200 . I was looking at me, and had tickets for that price next day, and the other for 10 less. But it felt like a big city, so I decided: Ulan Bator to Beijing by plane. So ... the end of a journey. And another begins.
Once dead sloth and completed the formalities to be played 4 photos. The center is not a lot to one day power. The main point is the artery of the city Peace Avenue, where you can find the main square of the city, Sukhbaatar Square.
The museum was quite good, but if you're not a fan of the story will follow the thread coast. We must also say that it has a good section on Genghis Khan, the national hero par excellence, which can be found everywhere.
Both were very nice, but they looked different. Despite being a little cut her she looked a little critical of the country and how they were doing. She had lived in Taiwan and I think that living wsr in Ulaanbaatar again he was a bit complicated, not many opportunities to evolve and there should not be more complicated. He also lived outside, but I was surprised that it was the kind of character I had spoken the day before. Very proud of his country. In fact we are all in general, and we see our country as the best place in the world, but that we should never take that critical defects we suffer, and he simply said that for him there was nothing better than that city, without constructive criticism.
Ulan Bator surprisingly, much too. The nivellàs city car that I have not seen anywhere. Mercedes, Infiniti, Lexus, Hummers and do not know how many brands. Typical wsr brands that make cars to countries where there are no paved roads and almost typical sports car ideal for cities where the streets are perforated every 10metres. wsr
There are things I do not understand, and that the craze for cars worth 50-100 thousand in countries where only certain lack is money ..
