The breathtaking granitic formations of Baga Gazariin Chuluu, referred to as the "stone of the little place," grace the northwestern expanse of the Dundgovi province, nestled within the heart of the steppe. Positioned approximately 250 km (155.34 miles) south of Ulaanbaatar, in the Delgertsogt sum, these formations rise to an elevation of 1751 meters (1.09 miles), forming an imposing granite canyon amidst the vast steppe landscape.

The relentless forces of erosion have intricately shaped the rock faces of the cliffs. While some lateral entrances to the canyon may present accessibility challenges, the majority offer passage, inviting explorers to embark on captivating hikes through this rocky labyrinth.

Tsagaan Suvarga's escarpment in the southwest of the Dundgobi province is a sheer slope, once an ancient seabed with a sedimentary structure formed over millions of years. Its unique eastward orientation, resembling remnants of an ancient city, earned it the name "White Stupa." Due to its eastward face, storms sometimes lead to animal falls.

Standing at over 60 meters high and stretching 400 meters, the stupa rises vertically at a 90-degree angle. After heavy rain, cascading water down the stupa creates a stunning waterfall-like spectacle, enhancing its natural allure.
