KHENTII AIMAG
UGLUGCHIIN KHEREM
It is situated in the Daichin Mountain passing pine and larch forest, 45km
southwest from Batshireet Soum of Khentii province and 8-10km from the
confluence of Ugluch and Bayangol rivers. Uglugchiin Kherem is a fortress of
neatly placed stone propped up against the mountain. It is 2.5-3 meters high,
2.5 meters wide and approximately 3km long. Traces of two graces have left in
the front section. There are some remains of rolled-earth dams inside the
fortress but some of them are can be barely distinguished from the ground.
However, there weren’t any traces of building. A terrace of clay just attached
to inner side of the fortress is regarded to be a platform where the 12th-14th
century archers stood on.
