If you don’t have time and you’re not dead,
You're a madman chasing chimeras
That will confuse your mind.
If you spend your time counting time, then you are afraid
And already lost.
If you're wasting your time
Then you have no heart to speak of
And this is the worst thing of all.

According to legend, in the Gobi there is a mystical city of Shambhala, which can only be accessed by those with pure thoughts.
The Chinese believed that this is where the Land of the Immortals is located, a country where gods and demigods live, and preside over all life on the planet.
According to another legend, Atlantis was located here—a kingdom of titans with knowledge far surpassing modern science.

THE LIFE OF ANY MONGOLIAN SETTLEMENT RESTS ON THE DYNAMIC INTERACTION BETWEEN A PROFANE SPACE WHERE YURTS STAND AND A SACRED SPACE WHERE A BUDDHIST TEMPLE IS ERECTED.

On the first day of the journey, having stopped in the village of Delgersogt (in the middle of the Gobi), we saw an open circle formed by small stones. This is how the site for constructing a Buddhist temple, with its south-facing entrance, is designated.

On the passes and tops of hills and mountains, ovoo are being built. These sanctuaries, where spirits rule, are pyramids of stones hung with blue khadaks (silk scarves). Here one might find the bones or horns of a ram or a mountain goat, sweets, or sugar cubes.

THE RITUAL MARCH AROUND THE STUPA FOLLOWING THE SUN HELPS THE PEOPLE WHO VISIT THEM TO BRING HARMONY INTO THEIR LIVES, TO CLEANSE THEMSELVES OF THEIR VICES, AND TO BECOME MORE VIRTUOUS.
