Later in 2000 Buddhist monks of Lamiran temple in Ulaanbaatar initiated the project to restore this temple and completed the restoration work in 2004-2007. Lamiran temple monks sometimes come to this temple and cater religious service here and in many days of year it is open place for visitors and tourists, who want to thank for the god and do meditation.

First excavated in 1922, it is best-known worldwide for the number of dinosaur bones and eggs found in the area, which you can see in museums around the world.

The 469-sq-km Khögnö Khan Uul Nature Reserve (Хөгнө Хан Уул) centres on a large, boulder-strewn rocky mountain that rises up surreally from its semidesert surrounds. The arid terrain is good for short hikes (there's plenty of rock clambering to be done), and there are old temples to explore, both ruined and active. In terms of wildlife, as well as majestic red deer, you might also spot ibexes, various varieties of hawk, and even wolves.

On the way you'll explore the magical place Tovhon khiid /temple/ which was founded in 1653 by Zanabazar. 
Karakorum
In the mid-13th century, Karakorum was a happening place. ChinggisKhaan established a supply base here and his son Ogedei ordered the construction of a proper capital, a decree that attracted traders, dignitaries and skilled workers from across Asia and even Europe. The good times lasted around 40 years until Kublai moved the capital to Khanbalik (later called Beijing), a decision that still incites resentment among some Mongolians. Following the move to Beijing and the subsequent collapse of the Mongol empire, Karakorum was abandoned and then destroyed by vengeful Manchurian soldiers in 1388. Whatever was left of Karakorum was used to help build, in the 16th century, the enormous monastery, Erdene Zuu monastery, which itself was badly damaged during the Stalinist purges. The rather nondescript Soviet-built town of  Karakorum was built a couple of kilometers away from Erdene Zuu Khiid, and there is little of interest in the town itself
