Uglugchiin kherem
Posted By : Admin/608
It is situated in the Daichin mountain pass with a forest of pine and larch 45km southwest from Batshireet Soum, Khentii Aimag and 8-10km from confluence of Ugluch and Bayangol rivers. Uglugchiin Kherem is a fortress of neatly placed stone propped up against the mountain.
It is 2.5-3m high, 2,5m wide and approximately 3km long. 2 gate traces have left in the front section. There are some remains of rolled-earth dams inside the fortress, but some of them are barely distinguished from the ground. However, there weren’t any traces of building. A terrace of clay just attached to inside of the fortress is regarded to be a platform where the 12th-14th century archers stood on.
