Khavtsgait Rock Drawing

Khavtsgait Rock Drawing

LOCATION: 1 km southeast of Khavtsgait bag (Bag is the smallest administrative unit in Mongolia), 40 km west of Flaming Cliffs, and 30 km southwest of Bulgan town, Umnugobi province.

3000-2000 BC Khavtsgait rock drawing dates back to the late Bronze Age and early Iron Age, stands on the northern slope of West Saikhan Mountain in the Gobi Gurban Saikhan National Park.
Among the numerous rock drawings in the mountain, Khavtsgair rock drawing is unique in terms of its expression and composition. Repeatedly depicted animal features such as tiger, bison, and birds similar to ostriches, do not exist in Mongolia.
The highlight of the rock drawing is 1.5*2 m rock facing the southwest, which shows figures drawn inseparably.
