Baldan Bereeven Monastery, Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Ömnödelger, Mongolia
The religious complex stands in the Baruun Jargalant River valley, surrounded by four mountains of the Khentii range representing sacred animals.
Founded in 1654 by lama Tsevendorj, the monastery expanded to accommodate 8000 monks by 1850, making it one of Mongolia's largest religious centers.
The monastery includes three restored temples, remains of fifty religious structures, and cliff carvings depicting Buddhist deities and mantras.
The site reopened after 1990 following decades of closure, with restoration work continuing on several buildings within the monastery complex.
The steep cliff of Munkh Ulziit mountain behind the monastery features numerous Buddhist carvings and a large Soyombo symbol.
