Tsagaan Suvarga

Tsagaan Suvraga is located 419km away to the south west of Ulaanbaatar city in Dundgobi province. Having 10 million years history, the cliff indicates different times by its colored layers. It’s 90 degree of straight, consists of many colors of clay deposits. In ancient times, there was a big sea in KHevtee and Bosoo valleys of Tsagaan Suvarga. However, after the sea dried up, the area transformed into a valley marked by numerous glacis and escarpments, all formed by a range of sedimentary deposits. Today, Tsagaan suvarga is a big escarpment with 200m height and 400m long. It earned its’ name because of the Harmony of the colors. And as it looks like an ancient city and sometimes like white stupas from a distance. Furthermore, the unusual forms of Tsagaan Suvarga cliffs can also look like a massive waterfall after heavy rains. Enjoy hiking around colorful Stupa, feeling like meditation in Tsagaan Suvarga. Imagine yourself standing before a 400-meter-long stretch of white-sand cliffs, streaked with soft pastel shades of purple, orange, and red, while swallows dart around, their wings beating rhythmically. Now, move toward the edge (be careful not to get too close to an eroding overhang). Look down, and you’ll see more of the same: white sand, streaked with minerals formed into a rolling landscape of color, before finally flattening into big sky plains. For those interested in exploring more, Gobi Tours offers a chance to experience this natural wonder firsthand, making it an unforgettable adventure.
