Mongolia - Mountain to Steppe

Season 2 Episode 212 | 26m 40s | CC

Known for its arid steppes, skilled nomadic horsemen and Genghis Khan, a visit to Mongolia feels like a trip back in time. At the annual Naadam Festival, contestants vie to be the victor in wrestling, archery and horseracing. Art Wolfe pursues prehistoric wild horses, rides with a Kazakh tribesman and catches up with nomadic reindeer herders at their summer camp near the Siberian border.
