geography

The neighboring aimags are Darchan-Uul in the northwest, Töw in the west, Gobi-Sümber in the southwest, Dorno-Gobi in the south, Süchbaatar in the southeast, and Dornod in the east. The border with Tow is interrupted by the city of Baganuur , an administrative exclave of Ulan Bator .

In the northwest of the aimag lies the eastern part of the Chentii Mountains , to the southeast the landscape merges into the eastern Mongolian steppe plains. Burchan Chaldun Mountain in Khan Chentii Protected Area is considered sacred. It is considered the birthplace of Genghis Khan and one suspects his grave here.

The Cherlen rises south of the Burchan Chaldun , which after a detour via the Töw-Aimag crosses the south of the Aimag to the east. A little further to the east is the source of the Onon . In the northeast of the Aimages is the Baldsch-Onon National Park .
