Welcome to the heart of the Gobi's spiritual energy. Here at the Khamariin Khiid Monastery, you're standing in what many believe to be one of the most powerful energy centers on Earth, often called Shambhala. To truly connect with the place, try to arrive at sunrise when the desert light is magical and the spiritual energy is said to be at its peak. You can walk among the 108 stupas, meditate in the same caves as monks once did, or simply lie on the ground to absorb the unique vibrations of this sacred land. The main sites are spread out across the desert landscape, so be prepared for a bit of walking on sandy terrain to experience everything.
