Mongolia desert

Mar 27, 2021

I was standing in the middle of nowhere on the side road desert in Mongolia, with special work shooting animals help care project, it was late winter but still super cold for me winds and dry outside

When we drive in this desert country its seems very easy by drive on the sand wherever the track can be, I mean you can create your own road which is not road actually.... you just follow the map by satellite connected

Only a girl in the trip so, Between I ask them for a toilet which is I know there is nowhere toilet but they still find for me one box stick out on the sand area, I walked there first I see was its three walls life wall right wall and the back wall.... so where is the door? so I decided to sit on the luxury toilet desert toilet hole dig in the ground with two stone path to step on, unfortunately two stones I had to step on make me turn my face to open door ( no door) anyway no one walk by even any animal, it was a cold wind hitting my skin ;)

On the photos it was natural lake in the middle of the desert, the nature always create balance for life so this lake help a lot of animal living around and near by, from my photo it wasn't look so green or blue but the real lake it was super clean clear and blue mix with green color reflection from a blue sky

Mongolia from Etymology on Wiki

The name Mongolia means the "Land of the Mongols" in Latin. The origin of the Mongolian word "Mongol" (монгол) is of uncertain etymology, given variously such as the name of a mountain or river; a corruption of the Mongolian Mongkhe-tengri-gal ("Eternal Sky Fire") or a derivation from Mugulu, the 4th-century founder of the Rouran Khaganate. First attested as the Mungu (Chinese蒙兀Modern Chinese MěngwùMiddle Chinese Muwngu branch of the Shiwei in an 8th-century Tang dynasty list of northern tribes, presumably related to the Liao-era Mungku (Chinese蒙古Modern Chinenes, Middle Chinese Muwngku tribe now known as the Khamag Mongol.

After the fall of the Liao in 1125, the Khamag Mongols became a leading tribe on the Mongolian Plateau. However, their wars with the Jurchen-ruled Jin dynasty and the Tatar confederation had weakened them. The last head of the tribe was Yesügei, whose son Temüjin eventually united all the Shiwei tribes as the Mongol Empire (Yekhe Monggol Ulus). In the thirteenth century, the word Mongol grew into an umbrella term for a large group of Mongolic-speaking tribes united under the rule of Genghis Khan.

Since the adoption of the new Constitution of Mongolia on February 13, 1992, the official name of the state is "Mongolia
