Although the time has changed and Mongolia has been transferring to globalization, Mongolians keep their traditional wedding ceremony. One of the things that you must see is Mongolian traditional wedding ceremony. Thank you for Ideree's family!

Mongolian Wedding – On the morning of November 06, 2018 we headed central Mongolia; a heart of nomadic culture and heritage to witness authentic Mongolian traditional wedding.
Driving on asphalt paved road through endless steppe and pointy hills we finally arrived in Arvaiheer from where bumpy road led us to a Uyanga village surrounded by mountain with alpine lakes.
After several hours of driving, finally we arrived our host family who offered us yak milk tea and noodle soup. It was starry night as one can marvel at but cold weather was discouraging.
The next day everyone got up early to get dressed and saddle on horse. We dressed traditional Mongolian costume “Deel” with sheep skin inside for winter.
I was excited as others to visit bridegroom’s parent and see the wedding preparation and venue. Our group of wanderers were excellent riders as we had enjoyable gallops.
We could see a crowd of people and some cars from distance where wedding preparation was taking a place.

Sanjeev said: “I saw a herd of camels crossing the road. It was a sight I couldn’t resist clicking.

Wedding rituals kick up intrigue, because it differs from nation to nation, more bizarre ethnic to ethnic. Mongolian has its own distintive, enough to take strange looks or glance..
