Nomads
Only about 40 percent of the population continue to live traditional nomadic lifestyle tending more than 28 million livestock. Animal husbandry remains a backbone of the national economy, providing 20 percent of the world's cashmere production.
The nomads' life changed very little since old days, except that nomadic herders prefer to use sometimes motorbikes or "iron horses" rather than live ones.
Mongolia remains the last refuge of the pastoral nomadism, preserving and continuing the traditional cultural heritage of the many nomadic nations that once flourished on the present day territory of Mongolia .
If there's anybody who wishes to come to mongolia and discover its natural beauties and cultural wonders, don't hesitate to contact me! I can help you!
