Uuliastai


There is no way to tell you about Uuliastai except to show it to you, so this is a long notebook with a short introduction. Located between mountains at the confluence of two rivers, Uuliastai has the feel of a much larger, older city than Khovd. Even though it has lots of abandoned factories at the southern edge of town, it still seems vibrant and colorful.
