The 10 Most Haunted Places in Asia

"A once-prominent Mongolian Silk Road city now largely buried by sand in the Gobi Desert after a 14th-century conquest in which invaders reportedly diverted a nearby river and rendered the walled city uninhabitable. The ruins have a desolate, otherworldly beauty, and travelers report strange noises and mysterious fires; guided excursions run from Jiayuguan and involve long drives across remote terrain to reach the site." - Alison Fox Alison Fox Alison Fox is a Travel + Leisure contributor.

Visited part of the vast desert and tried climbing up to the top of a pretty high sand dune. Unfortunately, couldn't make it all the way to the top. But allover it'd beautiful place with lof of mountains and rare animals like snow leopards and bactrian camels, I enjoyed a lot with local people.

Gobi desert series. Located in southern Mongolia, it's known for its elegant shaped dunes, mountains and rare animals such as snow leopards and Bactrian camels. I just enjoyed spending nights with local nomads at the campfire listening for their stories. #Mongolia #gobi #gobidesert #Nikon #madewithluminar #gitzoinspires

Traveled through here with a guide from "Wind of Mongolia". Had the most amazing time here rolling around in the sand, not having a shower for a week. You can only imagine the relief, after I finally had one. Sand gets everywhere...

We enjoyed our quick stop in the Gobi Desert. The hike up was intense but well worth the views. Bring water as it gets very hot during the day. They had a store selling drinks and ice cream at the parking lot. Getting there driving dirt roads for 150KM was a bit crazy and not normal, but well worth the effort.
