Ulaanbaatar - photo from the hotel window

This photo encapsulates much of the capital of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar. It is a city with a population of over a million.

 

Blocks of apartments are being constructed everywhere but there is still the occasional ger (round tent characteristic of Mongolia) (seen in the foreground).

 

Infrastructure is generally poor. Potholes are common in the roads.
