AKIPRESS.COM - Mongolia considers India as an important partner for tourism, said Gonchig Ganbold, the Ambassador of Mongolia to India, at an interaction held at the Indian Merchants’ Chamber in Mumbai, TravelBiz Monitor reports.

“There’s great scope for tourism exchange between the two countries,” Gonchig stated.

The mineral rich country sends many tourists to India; most of them come for religious purposes. “Mongolia considers India as the sacred land of Buddha. Many Mongolian citizens come to India to become monks,” the Ambassador shared.

For Indian visitors looking to travel to Mongolia, the visa process is quite relaxed. “We have liberal visa regime for Indian passport holders, we do not charge any visa fee,” he said.
