Kazak Cultural Encounter: A Day Trip to Visit a Kazak Family

2024-11-18
Nalaikh, Mongolia
1 ~ 8 people

During the Soviet era, a small group of Kazakh people settled in Nalaikh town for work, and today they remain a vibrant minority community, proudly preserving their rich traditions and culture. If you're short on time in Mongolia but eager to experience Kazakh heritage, this is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in their customs, admire their intricate embroidery, and enjoy traditional melody of dombra.

Between June and July, you'll also have the chance to meet eagle hunters in Terelj National Park, where they’ll demonstrate how to call and interact with their majestic eagles. Join us for an unforgettable day of exploring Kazakh culture and the ancient art of eagle hunting, while enjoying their warm hospitality.

Trip plan

Meet in the morning and start a day trip to Nalakh town which is 30 km away from Ulaanbaatar in the east. If your time is limited and unable to reach Western Mongolia, a visit to a Kazakh family in Nalaikh town is the perfect option. You'll have the opportunity to learn about the Kazakh people, one of the major ethnic groups in Mongolia, who predominantly reside in Bayan-Ulgii province in Western Mongolia. The highlight of this experience is discovering their unique culture of Hunting with Eagle. You'll even get a chance to hold an eagle on your arm and listen to the captivating sounds of their traditional musical instrument, the "Dombra."

Additionally, you can savor their delicious traditional cuisine, "Beshpirmak," a finger food consisting of steamed meat, potatoes, and fresh onions.

For those eager to delve deeper into the art of eagle hunting, an optional experience is available with an extra charge in Terelj National park.
