Arvaikheer

城市概覽

Arvayheer has quite the scrubby steppe look.

如何抵達

Arvayheer is well connected by paved roads with Ulaanbaatar to the northeast and Bayanhongor to the west, making it one of the easier places to reach in Mongolia.

By bus Buses for Arvayheer leave from the Dragon bus station in Ulaanbaatar at 8:00 and 14:00 daily. The ride typically lasts at least 6-7 hours, and tickets must be purchased a day or two in advance. Bus tickets from Ulaanbaatar to Arvayheer cost approximately 20,000 ₮. There are paved roads the whole way. There are also microbuses that run between Ulaanbaatar and Arvayheer. These are often very cramped (four across a bench seat), as drivers want to fit as many people in as possible to maximize profit. If possible, it is not a bad idea to pay for an extra seat to be left empty.
