The Mongun
Taiga, meaning Silver Mountain, is a massif in Tuva, southwest Siberia. Located
between Mongolia and the Altai. In 2003 The Uvs Nuur Basin was inscripted on
the Unesco Whs list. The inscription was for twelve protected areas in this
region, one of them is the Mongun Taiga.
It is a harsh land of wind-blown high-altitude
meadows, stony slopes and icy rivers. Only strong and tough people survive here,
Tuvans of Turkic roots, living a nomadic life with their herds of sheep and
yaks.
