How a governor presents this province

This page is a tool. Show the land, the know-how and the families. We do not invent a name, a quote or a film. The administration sends its own material.

  1. Record a short film of the land and the people, and of what this aimag is known for. It sits in the frame above. Publish a YouTube link from the aimag office, or send a file through contact.
  2. Name the specialties of this province (the tags on this page). That is how a city member first understands the territory.
  3. Show the producing families. They are listed below. Invite those who are still missing — the office keeps a list and a sign-up link.
  4. A pickup in the city — a ger, a khoroo local, or a corner in an independent shop — is how the products actually travel. Without a point, the film stays a postcard.
