Regularly readers of my blog know that my son Daniel is serving a mission in Mongolia. Though he will be there for nearly two years these are some of the landscapes he will probably never see. As you can see from the photographs, Mongolia is a very beautiful and varied country. I like landscapes from any country, consider these varied vistas from China.
If you have visited any of these locations please tell me about your experience. Click on the images for a larger photograph or follow the photo credit links.

These pictures are FAN-TAS-TIC! Especially the third one, with the open field running up against the mountains. I would give almost anything to have a home with a view like that.
Wow great post. Those are some amazing photos of a beautiful country. Would love to see it some day.
Wow, I mean just WOW! I find Mongolia fascinating, one of the most inhospitable climates in the world and yet, beautiful!
these are wonderful photographs. I’ve always wanted to visit Mongolia. Hopefully one day…
why not visit before it gets destroyed?!
Welcome to our virgin country, Mongolia!
These photographs have emerged an idea in my mind that I should go for world tour.
Beautiful, nicely done

My son when he lived there for a year thought Mongolia was a beautiful country.
All the photos are beautiful, but I am particularly struck by the sunset photo. Amazing!
Proud to be a Mongolian. I love my country, missing it soo much. the photos are tooooooo beautiful

THIS THING HELPED ME A LOT!!
there are so many mongolians that live out of mongolia!!!!!!!!!! the population in mongolia is less than the population of mongolian people out of mongolia living in another country.

MONGOLIA IS NOT CHINA!!!!!! I LOVE THE PICS BUT BE CAREFUL WITH THE WORDS. THANK YOU
It is a link to a separate blog post about China, hence the link is prefaced by the words “…landscapes from any country…”
Very beautiful pics. Students of Geography will find it very helpful. Well done!
Some lovely photos. I recently spent some time in Mongolia travelling around mainly the southern part photographing its landscapes. I can sy hands down that it is the most stunning country for landscape photography that I have visited. The sheer vastness of it coupled with the customary big blue skies make it a great place to gtravel with a camera.
Thanks a lot for sharing. It brings back fond memories for me and my time travelling there.
