Mongolia 🇲🇳, 

Namegetu is a hollow surrounded by three mountains: in the north — Namegt uul and Altan uul, in the south — Toast uul. But more this area is known as the "valley of dinosaurs".

It is assumed that a global catastrophe occurred at the boundary of the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods in the evolution of the Earth, which caused the death of everything on Earth. Just here, in the "dead layer" of the Gobi Desert, the burials of Mesoic dinosaurs were discovered. 

In 1946, a paleontological expedition from the USSR discovered here the richest location of these ancient giant animals, not inferior in scale to the famous African location of Tendaguru.

In addition, there is a stunning sight of a lifeless "lunar" landscape with steep cliffs and baked earth.
