An ethnographic excursion to the Steppe Nomad ethno-complex and a visit to the Atsagat datsan leave indelible impressions.
The tour program includes a visit to the datsan, acquaintance with Buddhist traditions. After the tour of the datsan, we will visit the Agvan Dorzhiev House Museum, which houses the only wax figures of Buddhist hierarchs in Eastern Siberia and a copy of the Atlas of Tibetan Medicine. Next, we move to the Steppe Nomad tourist complex, where guests are greeted with a traditional ceremony with khadaks, a symbol of the hospitality of the Buryat people, and white food, a symbol of prosperity and pure thoughts.
The tour of the tourist complex includes an introduction to the traditions and way of life of the Buryats in a felt yurt and a traditional house, as well as lunch / dinner of traditional Buryat cuisine, archery, horseback riding, admiring camels.
We will have a fun and exciting time in the steppe nomad. We will also play dice (the national Buryat game), dance an axe, and take photos in national costumes.
Atsagatsky datsan, one of the oldest and most revered in Buryatia.
At the Atsagat datsan, we will perform a kora and tune in to another shrine in the Shulut datsan. Touching the ear of the divine fallow deer is especially useful for those who have hearing problems. Shocked people very often report the beginning of improvements in their hearing quality and even the disappearance of long-standing problems with sound perception.
A trip to the Face of Shakyamuni Buddha on Mount Bayan-Hongor in the Khorinsky district of Buryatia has long been considered important by the Khorinsky Buryats and a special pilgrimage to this sacred place. Here, residents of Bayan Gol village conduct obo twice a year - in summer and on the second day of Sagaalgan, and they often come to worship the shrines throughout the year.
