The Gobi is a large desert region in Asia. It covers parts of northern and northwestern China, and of southern Mongolia. The desert basins of the Gobi are bounded by the Altai Mountains and the grasslands and steppes of Mongolia on the north. The good example of the gobi desert is South gobi province. South gobi or Umnugobi is the largest province in Mongolia, and has a population density of only 0.4 people per square kilometer. With an average annual precipitation of only 130mm a year, and summer temperatures reaching an average of 38°C, this is the driest, hottest and harshest region in the entire country. But South gobi is the most popular tourism destination in Mongolia. The Gobi classic 7 days tour gives you a chance to see gobi desert by visiting Gurvan Saikhan National park, Khongor sand dune and Bayanzag cliff.

The Gurvan saikhan National park or Three beauties of the Gobi mountain ridge has an exotic natural landscape known as Yolin Am (Valley of the Vultures), which is narrow gorge with ice field that lasts even in hot summer. Visit to Yolin Am early morning rewards you to see wildlife of this area.

The Flaming Cliffs site, also known as Bayanzag, is an important fossil finds have been made. It was given this name by American paleontologist Roy Chapman Andrews, who visited in the 1920s. The area is most famous for yielding the first discovery of dinosaur eggs. Other finds in the area include specimens of Velociraptor and eutherian mammals.
