Bayan river poplar grove
There is a beautiful place called the Poplar Grove of the Bayan River, which occupies tens of hectares of land in Dersen Us Bag of Nomgon Sum.
About 200 years ago, the five sons of Khukh Taij Gombosuren, who lived in this area at that time, consulted to create something that would last for a long time. Their youngest son, Sain Er, proposed the idea of establishing a poplar grove in Bayangol.The poplar tree, a species native to the Gobi forest, reaches a height of 5-12 meters, featuring greenish-gray bark and robust, straight trunks.

Sharaviin Changalan
Located 150 km southwest of Nomgon Sum on the road to Bor Tolgoi in Orvog Gashuun, another curious sight is "Sharaviin Changlan" situated in Tooroin Tugul. Before the People's Revolution victory, when there were no barriers between Mongolia and China, livestock often traveled back and forth. Camels frequently crossed the border from the south, and border guards had the dual responsibility of detaining and returning them during border meetings between the two countries. Between 1972 and 1975, a herd of approximately 60 camels arrived and halted near open water while a soldier named Jigmed Sharav was serving at the Jaalshand outpost. Following orders from above, J. Sharav enclosed the camel herd with a metal wire around the grove. Remarkably, to this day, the camels have not disappeared.

White sandalwood
A white sandalwood tree has grown in the foothills of the Yellow Khad Mountain in the area of Khatanbulag Sum in Dornogovi Province, belonging to the protection zone of the Govi Baga Nature Reserve. White sandalwood emits a unique and pleasant fragrance. However, the preservation of this scent for many years has become the main reason for its extinction, attributed to people's bad habits and superstitions.
