His riveting gaze was intense!

Standing outside Ulaan Baatar's distinctive parliament buildings, the bronze statue was immense! Born to a family of nobility in 1162, his given name was Temujin. When his family was banished from its tribe after his father's death, he eventually conquered his enemies, rising to the position of Khaan, or ruler. By 1206, he had united all the disparate Mongol tribes and was proclaimed at an assembly of nobles, the Great Khaan of Mongolia.

He was... Chinggis Khaan - the most feared, and revered ruler of all Asia!

Today the pastoral lands, grassy steppes and mighty Gobi desert remain much the same as they were in his time.
