Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️
I thought you going back to Iraq again!, but can you go back to Bangladesh and Iraq or can you going to Russia and China.
first video i ever saw from your channel. great stuff. earned a sub :)
The statue of Genghis Khan, or Temu Jhin, this man, and his mongols, CHANGED HISTORY.
is ulaanbaatar улаанбаатар
Little correction here. 1:30, As a Mongolian, we never been part of china. We were autonomous country for Manchu dynasty. We also declared our country in December 29 1911.
As a Mongolian, Currently living in US, this video brought home to me, smiled thru entire thing. Appreciate this video, keep up the goodwork Doug
that means a lot, thank you for watching!
Im Mongolian+Vietnamese, grandma's and mom's side is Vietnamese and father's side is Mongolian. I told him to come to Vietnam too for that reason.
why you live in US?
because mongolia too poor?
@@cocamilo22 Mongolia is not poor like the early 90s now. Their development is getting much more better.
@@efootballunitedyt.4685 They are poor as hell....
If you go from inner mongolia to Mongolia
You will feel like from South Korea to north korea....
Even north Korea poor
But not depend to other country
But Mongolia very poor and depend too much to china
If not because china Mercy
They will go back to nomads live
the sky looks so unreal
of course mongolia is also called "the land of eternal blue skies"
Thanks to Mongolia for letting Russian refugees in. You are saving Russian and Ukrainian lives! Respect from 🇷🇺
The Mongolian accent while speaking English really fascinates me, I haven't seen any research, academic or otherwise, but it sounds so unique, I can't put my finger on it.
all shrt vwls ar drppd excpt th frst at th strt of a wrd. this how mongolians talk
@@starsnstrife no.
@@starsnstrife Grow up & learn to speak properly, dick !!!!!
@@starsnstrife no.
its a turkic language
My wife is Mongolian and we’re going from Brooklyn in late September. Thank you my g!!! Can’t wait to watch more of ur other videos.
that’s awesome, enjoy it man, you’re gonna love it there!
I'm from Nagaland, India and we Nagas are of Mongoloid race.
We look exactly like the Mongoloids, our English accent are exactly the same as well.
I wish I'll be able to visit Mongolia one fine day.
My dream destination. I wanna visit. Love from the 🇵🇭
It was so wholesome to see how friendly the people are there in mongolia
they're great!
@@doug_barnard nice to know you'r though about us
Good to know
Yeah sorry mongolian might seem like a friendly country but its not that friendly when you live in it
@@darkflash6251 agree
As a Mongolian, this video was so weird to watch(in a good way ofc). Watching you being in awe of these things that seem so normal to us, describing them through your own unique perspective and just exploring the little parts was so refreshing. I realized that i take a lot of things in our culture for granted. Great video, keep up the good work mate
Me to im mongolian
Just the way most “Foreigners” are the first time they come to America, we are when in another country too
Is Outer Mongolia's independence from China a good thing or a bad thing? Is it right or wrong？？？？？？？？？？😨😨😨
For someone like me who grew up in and lives on an Island in northern Europe, Mongolia and its culture seem so different and amazing!
@@lili-xz8bm ???
Mongolia looks to be a beautiful country, would love to visit there some time, hello from Ireland
Yeah, It is a beautiful country!
Welcome to Mongolia 😊
Hello! Love from mongolia, I would love to visit Ireland!
@@-MsY-come any time. More than welcome 🙏
I'm going to Mongolia 🇲🇳 this year and it's good to find out all about that wonderful country and all about its culture. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
As a Mongolian living abroad who hasn't gone back in 5 years, this made me so nostalgic. Thank you for making this vlog and I hope you enjoy your stay
我是中国人，由于历史原因把我们分开了，但是我们一直都把蒙古人当成自己的兄弟同胞！
@@user-ni4uw6dz6q 好的。我是蒙古人，我会说一点点中文
@@user-ni4uw6dz6q 成立。 蒙古人属于阿尔泰-图鲁克血统，我读到他们从未与中国人一起统治过任何东西，也从未与中国人一起生活过。 中国人的文化和生活方式与蒙古人完全不同。 我曾经认为他们是相似的，但这是错误的。
Have you found burial site of chinggis khaan?
Lord, protect me from the Catholic , Protestant, Evangelical, Adventist, Jehovah's Witness, Muslim, Buddhist, Judaic and branhamists gods Because they are gods who easily send people to hell.
#Prophetkacouphilippe
Oh mongolia is one of my bucketlist because it's underrated and not popular for tourist..
You know the less known is sometimes more beautiful
The boy with the black Shirt is so cute. Trying to help you
I am Mongol and the way you pronounce Mongolian words is really good. Grateful that you put an effort to it.
Mongol Uls
Chinggis khaan needs to be reincarnated
I’m Mongolian but I left when I was a baby and never visited. I was a little nervous to return because I didn’t know what to expect but this video helped so much! Very insightful. I can’t wait to visit
Love Mongolia from Egypt, used to listen to their music.
We always welcome tourists with warm hands
What about Chinese tourists with loud mouths?
Power to the people. I support that protest against the debt trap of all countries. 👏👍👊
Those countries could choose not to borrow money. If they did, it meant that it was good for their countries. At least in the twenty-first Century, I had never seen China force debt
You sure have brainwashed power.
Without trading, who can afford the beautiful goods in the mall?
I live in Ulaanbaatar and it's definitely strange seeing places I go around everyday from a different perspective. Ulaanbaatar may not be the prettiest or the most interesting city lol, but it certainly has its own charm and it's pretty safe. Also the coldest capital city in the world! Really enjoyed this video, thanks!!
Is it good internet connection out there?
@@EllieEleonora Yep same internet as everywhere else lol
@@michelle.b9224 same as everywhere else?? not all places have good internet lol
Bro. It's a big dream for me to go to Mongolia send me ur WhatsApp.please
@@Alex_Gordon yeahh... even here, there are both good and bad internet connections coexisting in peace ig
Класс!!!!!Мы 5 августа вернулись из Монголии.Было всё супер!!!!!
Top-Klasse! (From Germany with love)
The world is fighting but we never heared about Mongolia. It seems like this place are just so peaceful.
Definitely not, I’m not saying this country is hell on Earth (that would be North Korea), but our country has its own fair share of problems, mainly:
1. Underpaid citizens, resulting in them being not so nice to talk to most of the time
2. The most polluted air in a capital city on Earth, resulting in everybody living here automatically having some lung health problems
3. China and Russia squeezing us between them, two powerful countries struggling with one another to see who can assimilate Mongolia into itself in the future
4. Corrupt political officials destroying the country’s future
@@an18yearoldmongolianguy Ordos, Wuhai and Hohhot Belongs to China btw, if Southern Mongolia is freed by USA and the West and given to Mongolia. Belongs to the Jin Chinese, not Ordos Mongolians.
@@GL-iv4rw Russia and China pretty much use us
no i live in mongolia 🇲🇳 its not peaceful
Nah bro
Seriously one of the best vids I have watched in ages. Your interactions with the family members at the arts commemoration was so sweet. That is how one should travel. Curious, open, friendly, and respectful.
Incredible video! It is very heart-warming to see people document and travel around our country in spite of Mongolia’s not-well-known nature. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for visiting Mongolia, especially Ulaanbaatar city, and making a wonderful video
This so cute all the families celebrating them is so wholesome the whole video I was just smiling so cute
I'm from a race known as the Moran race living in the northeast region of India. As I've heard long back from my father and other paternal elders, our race had migrated from Mongolia more than a thousand years ago into this Brahmaputra valley of the state of Assam and so Mongol genes are present in our blood.
It's interesting how people migrate and populate newer places, taking up newer names.
so cool!
I am Kachin, from Kachin. We are called Singpo in India & Jingpo in China. Our greatgrand elders told us that we are descendants from the Mogolians. So, when we talk about our ancetral history, it dates back to Mogolia.
The Kachins were described by the White as ''Warlike people'' due to our skillful and subtle fights against the enemies. The well-known evidence to show is when we fought against the Japanese who invaded into our land and they got defeated. We celebrated by our cultural "Manau'' dance, which we celebrate every year up to this day. Another occasion was when the British invaded. While the lower part of Burma fell under the British within days, it took over a month for the British to conquer the Kachinland. Comparing the advance arms and weaponaries the British soldiers were equipped with, the Kachin fighters only fought back with hand-made pellet-guns, swords, spears and traps set up in th jungle. So, Mogols gene sure is present in our blood.
@@efootballunitedyt.4685 Some information in mainstream historical records are actually not too authentic. Wikipedia has a lot of misinformation on this regard. In reality, India's northeastern region is full of Tibetan, Sino, Burmese and Mongoloid alongwith other Polynesian stock origin races, now mostly mutually assimilated. This assimilation has resulted in mixing of genes amongst the present day ethnicities. Hence you'll find a lot of subtle to notable anthropologically major and/or minor differences on the facial and physical appearances between them. For example, an Angami Naga is usually seen with a longer neck and sharper nose than those of a Sumi Naga although both are from the Naga ethnicity. Down here in the valley where I hail from, we have broader noses with stocky and more robust calves and thighs than most other ethnicities here like the Ahoms(migrated here from the Yunan province during the 1200s). There has never been an exhaustive and thorough anthropological research done on each and every race here so far and our history has always been oral with hardly any written records. Hence most modern historic records are based on oral information and assumption with some amount of anthropological study(which, IMO, isn't enough to establish origins in a concrete way).
@@sutsangan3992 We have a certain Singpho minor population here in Assam's easternmost part. They must've migrated centuries ago. The Moran race have amicable ties with them and we even have some matrimonial alliances with them.
@@AdMBandLeader oh i see, one day I'd like to visit northeast India too. We Mongolians originated from China, a nomadic tribal Chinese people who resided in the north and east of China. Our lineage were the Xianbei, Liao, etc. Olden times those Mongols were Chinese nomadic tribal people who were known as Shi Wei. They were moved away from Xianbei after the collapse of the Xianbei. They moved to mountainous northern regions, there they might have met Turks and intermixed with them and also influenced to Turk cultures too. In around the 12th century, Genghis Khan ruled and united all the Mongols and formed one of the biggest Empires in history, The Mongol Empire. And we are also a Chinese but non-Han ethnic ones. Mongols are one of China's 56 ethnic groups too.
Your fisrt impressions are totally positive and very nice. Thank you for that.
Growing up, I wrote fiction and would research and set the stories in locations inspired by various central to east Asian countries. Mongolia was always my favorite, and I featured Nadaam the best I could.
Hi! Its actually not Nadaam its Naadam😃
I am from Tanzania, East Africa. Before watching this video I knew little about the country. I am quiet impressed and will definately add Ulaan Bataar to my bucket list.
I've been so looking forward to the Mongolia videos...definitely on my list of places to visit. I have to say that your videos are some of my favorite content out there...keep up the great work!
thanks a lot david i really appreciate it!!
Welcome to Mongolia! It was interesting to watch your video from a foreign visitor perspective. Hope you have a great adventure in the countryside. Look forward to your next videos and thanks for visiting my beautiful country. 🙏 🇲🇳 ❤️👏
Beautifull city, unique architecture and the landscape are so peacefull. cheers from Manado, Indonesia
I really love this guy. Feels really nice when a tourist knows about the country very well . Keep going bro
What a wonderful country this is...I went camping there a few years ago, solo, stayed UB for about 4 days and spent rest of time moving around.. living also in jurts ( or yurts) ...I LOVED to go back some day...these are beautiful people and so polite...
В Монголии больше вероятности встретиться с англоязычными, чем в России и Китае. Особенно дети.Часто они знают 2 иностранных языка.
Just like me
Im especially learnin japanese
Ya I know 2 Mongolia and English
Да это точно
Уверено, у них хороший акцент...
Ноооо некоторые монгольские дети плохо знают русский, чем английский 🤷🏻♀️
yeah you finally in Mongolia!!!! i hope you enjoyed our beautiful country!! Thank you so much!
thank you!! i loved it!
Excellent content! Thanks Doug👍🏻
You go to places that not many think of! Can't wait for more from Mongolia. Plus you really got me interested in Morocco!
thanks a lot!!
Marrakech a city in Morocco actually won the most visited city in the world 2015
Mongolia is a beautiful country. I moved there 2 yrs ago. I wouldn't live anywhere else in the world.
have been to Mongolia but didn't see any of that. will be headed there next year. wonderful video. thank you.
This is awesome to see as a Mongolian who lives in London, UK and not been able to go back for 6 years! I can already see some notable differences. I can't wait to watch the rest of your journey 🤩
我是中国人。看见蒙古人🇲🇳就很亲切
I lived in Mongolia from 2007-2009, and the place seems to have changed SO MUCH in 13 years. Like... We had zero international brands at ih delguur, and zah didn't have any food court or escalators.
Man... Sanaj uhlee.
Thank you Doug for wonderful video. Keep doing good work!
Love to watch your videos. Your videos inspire me a lot 👍
Such a beautiful sky❤️
I'm a mongolian that lives in Australia and I haven't been there for around 3 or 4 years, and it brings me back lot's of memories
Ausdroolia pepper sprays old ladies for refusing to poison themselves. Insane liberal country.
Why do you leave your homeland ...
While watching your video, I'm always smiled and felt really good. Thank you for making a great video about my home country. As a Mongolian, currently living in Japan, your video makes me happy ☺️ Good luck
Oneday I will visit Mongolia.. Thank you Doug for sharing this video with us..
thank you for watching!
Mongolia🇲🇳 is a beautiful country 👍 from Uzbekistan🇺🇿
♡
does all the country that have stan in it love mongolia lol
@@Chishka921 maybe because turkish have some connection with mongolians…? Have you heard of ‘transeurasian theory( though its little outdated)’?
If Mongols believed in Islam, our country name would be Mongolistan😅
10:30 looks like North Korea
I would love to go to Mongolia too. Seem like a place with wonderful and friendly people. Much respect from Denmark to Mongolia and its people 🇲🇳🇩🇰
Ghenghis Khan laughing at you💀
Welcome to Mongolia 🇲🇳
thanks for the great video and impression! Looking forward to also visit Mongolia during our travels :)
i am from mongolia and this video gave me a lot of nostalgia, thank you. also i love the fact that you pronounced it chinghis khan instead of genghis khan, it made me really happy
Such a beautiful, neat, and clean country! Love the landscape behind the buildings/city. The department store was impeccable as well. And, again, such nice people you continue to meet everywhere. Can't wait to see more!!
Well said, my fellow Habibi badge holder! See you at the next meeting :)
As a person still in Mongolia after a month, « clean » really depends on the places you go to. If you stay in the « luxury » areas obviously not much trash but as soon as you go to some normal places and even in the countryside you will unfortunately realize a miserable managing of trash with random stuff laying around in random places. But obviously that is not everywhere and as soon as you escape the crowded places it feels like heaven!
Cheers
The landscape that you see south of the city is actually the oldest national park (Bogd Khan Uul National Park) in the world, it predates the Yellowstone National Park by almost 100 years.
I don't know about clean 🤣 my white shoes get dirty the moment I step outside
@Blackberry muffin is it a safe country?
Love mongolia from azerbaijan 🇦🇿💚🇲🇳
Love azerbaijan from mongolia🇲🇳💖🇦🇿
you have absolutely NOTHING in common with them, except for the turkic language family
@@Alex_Gordon Not even that, Mongol and Azeri are 2 completely unrelated languages. One is a Mongolic language and another is Turkic.
The Azeris are Persian-Iranian, they are not Turks and they are not Mongols. Wake up from the illusion of the Turkish identity. The Turks are only in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and the Shanghai province of East Turkestan. Only these are the Turks. Anatolian Turkey and Azerbaijan are a different race from the Turks
@@r0__.0 No one asked + no one cares + stay mad + cringe + cry about it.
YOU have an experience that I would give ANYTHING to have!!!! Thank YOU for the video!
This is so beautiful I cried. What makes the country are the people ❤
The people of Sarnia
I can’t express how happy I am to see someone from overseas talking positive things about my country. It feels so amazing to see a non Mongolian to appreciate our food. I thought ppl from other countries wouldn’t like it. Thank you!
Why? The food looks tasty tho. Idk maybe because I'm asian, from the appearance itself I know that's my taste lol.
@@alebaobao the meat can seem overwhelming as well as 'greasy' 😅
Your country looks amazing, I don’t know about the politics in your country, but it seems peaceful. The food also looked amazing.
@@mayanaztec6440 Thank you but some of the services are not good. The government is shit. There are many nice and bad things. Food is yummy
I love too much Mongólia. The heart of this beautiful country belongs to Brazil. Ulaan Bator is wonderful.
as a mongolian that isn't living in Mongolia, i'm so happy to see foreign people being that curious about my country. I went there to see my family this summer and seeing the capital by this video is bringing me there again. thank you !!
I got almost no knowledge about modern Mongolia and just stumbled across your Video by chance.
This is great and really interesting to watch. It`s amazing that you came across the award celebration and it`s so cool to see how communicative and nice the guys you talked to were.
Баярлалаа ахаа та дан болсонгүй байсан баярлалаа i LOVE you
I’m in Finland and after watching this video I wish I could come back to my homeland
That is so nice - so warm and neighbourly.
Hey, Thank you so much visiting our Country, currently living in Germany. this video brought home to me.
Keep going
Wanderful county.. with wanderful people.. ✌️from 🇰🇬
Thats dope, will you make a food tour video? I grew up eating Mongolian food which was my preferred asian food at the time.
Love the videos man. Just genuine authentic content!
i appreciate it!!
Thank you for the amazing video experience in Mongolia 🇲🇳
Great job!
Oh my god,, I am so excited to see more of Mongolia. I think you are one of the best guys shows the modern Mongolia. All the TV shows shows the nomad part. Because of that I was worried to visit Mongolia. I am reading a book "Lords of the bow" it's about the true story of khan and happy to see his statue in the government building.
Mongolia is mostly a safe place. Ulaanbaatar and Erdenet are modernized global cities. In fact about 70% of Mongolians live in urban areas and the rest 30% are nomads. So if you want to see modern Mongolia go to Ulaanbaatar but if you want to go to traditional Mongolia go to the countryside
Wow. I do love your video and your explanations about Mongolian things. Thanks 👍👍🥰🥰
thanks for watching!
Ulaanbaatar. Gotta love them and they're country. Thanks for showing us .
Such a beautiful country and a video! 🤯
I lived in UB for a year and loved it (2019-2020). Had to evacuate because of Covid. Your video brought back so many wonderful memories. Thank you!
It doesn't exist.
how did you cope with the immense cold in the winter?
@@Alex_Gordon Dressed really warm and didn't stay ouside more than an hour at a time! Heavy lined boots, Wool socks, hat, scarf, and down coat.
@@cindyhills5593 good thinking! but all the pollution from wood burners in the winter?? hmm....not sure if that's even worse than the cold! lol
@@Alex_Gordon haha! It was definitely worse than the cold. But we loved the people and the culture.
What a beautiful place...I love it...
i really love and appreciate that you are showing different sides of mongolia. as you said the only thing ppl seem to know is chingis khan. but there‘s so much more. and also that you talked to ppl who actually live there and not western representatives. love this format keep going!😍🙌🏾
Thank u for the great vid doug i rlly feel great as a mongolian
it's a bit surprising that you read "сийлбэртэй гэр" .big thumbs up.
A place where we share our tears and laugher. Wecome to Mongolia. Hope you had such a comfort.
Great video... friendly people there.
Very fun! Thanks for doing the walking for me. 😊
Ever since playing Ghost of Tsushima, I've gained an interest in Mongolia and it's culture. I love their own appreciation for it aswell 🇬🇧🤝🇲🇳
Ya been taught modified , patched history ok then
Love from mongolia💖
@@morlarav602 Do I care? It's still cool
@@morlarav602 If it encourages people to learn more about the country on their own, that's a good thing.
i recommend this popular youtube channel called ArtGer, they have many videos with eng subs or narrated
I like to see and explore different places of the world so I like your channel keep it up I'm from Iraq
I want to visit Iraq! Doug had no problem as an American. Our government, and media are the problem here in the US. Inshallah

This video made me smile i would absolutely love to go back and see my family, would also love to try and learn my native language again since i forgot it since i learned english, beautiful country and people though.
Thanks for traveling in my country! 😀💖
thanks so much for watching!
Crazy how powerful they were

Great video! I hope to visit Mongolia sometime in my life.
2:55 I know that little kid and his brother, grew up in the same apartment block together, I’m a few years older than him and moved away to japan but it was a nice throwback
Always welcome to Mongolia!!!
Such a gorgeous country
The skys look so blue ❤
Wow, they changed that State Department store too! When I was there in 2016, the interior was much older and the stuff the sold was different. I remember the very top floor was filled with Mongolian paintings and clothing/apparel.
I ❤ Mongolia. My dream country. ❤ From Philippines
I have always wanted to visit Mongolia and the other central Asian Steppe nations.
sweet.. always wonder about countries that i imagine will never be able to travel to or think ill never get to go and Mongolia is def one of them.. i pray i get to experience such a beautiful and friendly place in my life time
nice dawg, havent seen my home country in a while. So thanks for showing lol
