World Shambhala Land: Mongolia Hotspot, Fossil Excavation Experience, and
Meditation Sites of Ancient Lamas, 4-Day Tour
Visit South Khamar Monastery, founded by Danzanravjaa, the famous 19th-century Mongolian scholar, poet and Living Buddha of the Gobi. It is said to have been the cultural center of Mongolia around the 19th century. The monastery was renovated in 1990 and enshrines old Buddha statues. Many pilgrims still visit it today.
Gobi Nature
You can see features of the Mongolian Gobi: sand dunes, oases, forests of saxaul trees, the astonishing rocks called Senjit Khad, petrified trees and 200-million-year-old dinosaur bones that remain in their natural state.
Danzanravjaa Museum
The Danzanravjaa Museum was founded in 1991 in memory of the greatest and most unusual intellectual in Mongolian history. The museum displays Danzanravjaa's original artistic works and literary manuscripts, together with his books, religious items, stage costumes, personal belongings and similar objects illustrating his life and work. A 17th-century Japanese samurai sword is also on display.
World Energy Center Shambhala Land
Danzanravjaa, the Living Buddha of the Gobi, had his disciples gather among the many colored hills (near Khamar Monastery) and lay out the plans for where Shambhala would land, and built a place for meditation practice with wooden stupas, doors and a pile of stones. At that place, his holiness prayed to meet all his disciples in the sacred Shambhala Land, and this place is known as where Shambhala now lands. Therefore it is one of the holiest places today for prostrations and circumambulation.
Khamar Monastery
Khamar Monastery was founded in the 1820s by Danzanravjaa, the famous 19th-century Mongolian educator and literary figure. The monastery was an important center of the Red Sect of Buddhism and the seat of the Living Buddha of the Gobi. He was an outspoken critic of the society he lived in, its rigid class system and the characteristics of his age. He devoted great effort to the cause of public education, which he advanced at Khamar Monastery through founding public schools, a theater, a museum and a library.
