Located in the south-central part of Mongolia, Tolgoi is a small town under the jurisdiction of Töv Province, located in the hinterland of the Mongolian Plateau about 200 kilometers away from the capital city of Ulaanbaatar. The traditional nomadic culture is the core of this area, and animal husbandry is the mainstay of the economy, with most of the inhabitants engaged in cattle and sheep breeding and processing of livestock products. The grassland around Tolgoi is vast, with abundant water and grass in summer, which is a typical nomadic living area, while the winter is cold and dry. The local community has retained traditional Mongolian customs, such as the annual "Naadam" conference, including horse racing, wrestling and other folk activities, attracting the participation of neighboring herdsmen. As a node connecting the pasture area with the town, there is a small market in the town where livestock products and handicrafts are traded. Though small in scale, it shows the unique charm of the Mongolian nomadic culture, and is an ideal place for experiencing the life on the grassland.
