Description | Mongolian worship ceremonies are performed at sacred sites to invoke assistance from deities of nature: in the summer for timely rain and abundant pastures and in the autumn for protecting humans and livestock from a harsh winter. The tradition maintains a variety of forms of intangible cultural heritage and builds a sense of community and solidarity among the people while strengthening awareness of the importance of protecting the environment. On a specified day, all the participants gather early in the morning at the worship site. Everyone wears their ceremonial clothes and brings offerings to the deities. | ||
