Khentii Province, Administrative division in eastern Mongolia

Khentii Province spans 80,325 square kilometers across diverse terrains, from mountainous landscapes in the northwest to eastern Mongolian steppe plains in the southeast.

The province underwent significant administrative changes after its establishment in 1930, including the separation of Dornod Province and later Sukhbaatar Province in 1942.

The region contains numerous sacred sites, including Burkhan Khaldun Mountain within the Khan Khentii Protected Area, drawing visitors interested in Mongolian heritage.

The provincial capital, Chinggis City, functions as the central administrative hub, connecting seventeen districts through a network of regional transportation routes.

The province marks the birthplace of Genghis Khan and houses the Onon-Balj National Park, where the Kherlen River flows through the southern territories.
