Kharkhorin & Erdene Zuu Hyid (Mongolia) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Kharkhorin & Erdene Zuu Hyid in Mongolia.
In Kharkhorin, former residence of those who once ruled Mongolia, today there is little left to see. However, a few mysterious sites remain which, along with the Erdene Zuu Monastery, are highly evocative of this ancient city in Central Mongolia.For thirty two years Kharkhorin was the centre of one of the most powerful empires in the world. After the break-up of the Soviet Union, the Erdene Zuu Monastery became active once again. Up until 1938, over sixty individual buildings that housed fifteen hundred devout lamas, stood on the monastery grounds and it is believed that as many as ten thousand lamas once lived there. Kharkhorin can be traced back to 1222 which was when Ghengis Khan expanded the former main base of the Kereit Clan into a supply base for his army. Its strategic location was excellent, set on the banks of the Orchon River within a wide and fertile valley, it was perfectly suited for huge hordes of men and their horses. A gentle breath of mystique and melancholy blows over the surviving ruins of this former cosmopolitan city in which, as decreed by Law, multicultural tolerance predominated.

Visiting Erdene Zuu Monastery, Harahorin, Mongolia
In August 2011, on the way back from the Deer Stone Valley, Jargalantyn Am, we stopped at Harhorin after an interval of 14 years.
Harhorin is located on the east side of Orhon River, one of the greatest river in Mongolia and was a capital of Mongolian Empire Karakorum that was established by Ogedei, the Second Great Kahn in 1235.
However, the Fifth Great Khan Fubirai founded Yuan Dynasty in China and relocated the capital to today's Beijing in 1267, Karakorum rapidly declined thereafter.
And 300 years later started the new construction of Erdene Zuu, a Monastery of Tibetan Buddhism, but the waste materials of Karakorum were re-used for the construction, the international city view was completely vanished therefore.
For Erdene Zuu as well, however, most temples and monuments were destroyed during the governance of the USSR, only a few buildings such as the outer walls that contain 108 stupas, Gorban Zuu Temples, Golden Stupa and Laviran Temple can be seen today.

Description: The Erdene Zuu Monastery is probably the earliest surviving Buddhist monastery in Mongolia. Located in Övörkhangai Province, approximately 2 km north-east from the center of Kharkhorin and adjacent to the ancient city of Karakorum, it is part of the Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape World Heritage Site.The monastery is affiliated with the Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism.Abtai Sain Khan, ruler of the Khalkha Mongols and grandfather of Zanabazar, the first Jebtsundamba Khutuktu, ordered construction of the Erdene Zuu monastery in 1585 after his meeting with the 3rd Dalai Lama and the declaration of Tibetan Buddhism as the state religion of Mongolia. Stones from the nearby ruins of the ancient Mongol capital of Karakorum were used in its construction. Planners attempted to create a surrounding wall that resembled a Tibetan Buddhist rosary featuring 108 stupas , but this objective was probably never achieved. The monastery's temple walls were painted, and the Chinese-style roof covered with green tiles. The monastery was damaged in 1688 during one of the many wars between Dzungars and Khalkha Mongols. Locals dismantled the wooden fortifications of the abandoned monastery. It was rebuilt in the 18th century and by 1872 had a full 62 temples and housed up to 1000 monks. According to tradition, in 1745 a local Buddhist disciple named Bunia made several unsuccessful attempts to fly with a device he invented similar to parachute. In 1939 the Communist leader Khorloogiin Choibalsan ordered the monastery destroyed, as part of a purge that obliterated hundreds of monasteries in Mongolia and killed over ten thousand monks. Three small temples and the external wall with the stupas survived the initial onslaught and by 1944 Joseph Stalin pressured Choibalsan to maintain the monastery as a showpiece for international visitors, such as U.S. Vice President Henry Wallace, to prove that the communist regime allowed freedom of religion. In 1947 the temples were converted into museums and for the four decades that followed Gandantegchinlen Khiid Monastery became Mongolia's only functioning monastery. After the fall of Communism in Mongolia in 1990, the monastery was turned over to the lamas and Erdene Zuu again became a place of worship. Today Erdene Zuu remains an active Buddhist monastery as well as a museum that is open to tourists. On a hill outside the monastery sits a stone phallus called Kharkhorin Rock. The phallus is said to restrain the sexual impulses of the monks and ensure their good behavior.

Monkeetime Mongolia | Outtakes 7 (Erdene Zuu Monastery)
This is an extended collection of footage that I couldnt include in the final video due to the length, but since it is fairly rare, I thought to include it, unedited, in the outtake collection. We had the place largely to ourselves, which was highly unusual, but totally quiet and so there was no need for any sort of soundtracking. Enjoy the sights.
This is Mongolia - Monastery / Kloster - Erdene Zuu
Das Kloster Erdene Zuu (mongolisch Эрдэнэ Зуу, auch: Erdene Dsu, deutsch: Kostbarer Herr) befindet sich in der zentralen Mongolei, im Öwörchangai-Aimag, vor den Toren der Stadt Charchorin, nahe dem ehemaligen Karakorum, der Hauptstadt des mittelalterlichen Mongolenreiches.
Erdene Zuu war das erste buddhistische Kloster des Buddhismus in der Mongolei. Es wurde 1586 von Abtai Sain Khan, einem Fürsten der Chalcha-Mongolen, gegründet. Benannt ist es nach einem Bild einer Gottheit, das im Kloster aufgestellt war. In der etwa 400 mal 400 Meter großen Klosteranlage lebten über 1000 Mönche.
Die Bauzeit dauerte über 300 Jahre. Zwei Mal, im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert, wurde das Kloster von mandschurischen Eroberern zerstört und in den Jahren 1760 bis 1796 und 1806 bis 1814 wieder auf- und ausgebaut. Innerhalb seiner quadratischen Außenmauer sollen sich auf dem großen Areal im Jahre 1870 etwa 62 Tempel im chinesisch-mongolischen Mischstil befunden haben. Zum Teil besteht Erdene Zuu aus den Steinen der alten Hauptstadt Karakorum.
1937 wurde das Kloster im Zuge stalinistischer Säuberungen zerstört. Von der einstigen Klosteranlage sind heute nur die imposante, von 108 Stupas gekrönte Mauer aus dem 17. Jahrhundert und vier Tempel erhalten.
Erst nach dem politischen Wandel der Mongolischen Volksrepublik in die Mongolei im Jahr 1990 wurde das Kloster wieder in Betrieb genommen. In letzter Zeit wurden einige Gebäude mit erheblichem Aufwand restauriert. Die vollständige Wiederherstellung der Anlage erscheint jedoch in absehbarer Zeit nicht finanzierbar.
Mongolische Archäologen und ein deutsches Team u.a. vom Deutschen Archäologischen Institut untersuchen aktuell den Innenbereich der Klosteranlage nach Hinweisen auf den ehemaligen Khanpalast. Es wird vermutet, dass dieser durch die sowjetisch-mongolische Expedition von Sergej Kiselev in den Jahren 1948/1949 doch nicht, wie bisher angenommen, lokalisiert wurde. Die damaligen Funde wurden nun durch Nachgrabungen in diesem Areal ergänzt und verweisen eher auf die Interpretation, dass man es mit Resten des Tempels des Aufstiegs der Yuan zu tun hat, der ebenfalls außerhalb des Stadtzentrums lag. Die Reste des Khanpalastes werden dagegen an anderer Stelle unter dem Gelände von Erdene Zuu vermutet, was durch weitere Ausgrabungen bestätigt werden soll.

The Erdene Zuu Monastery (Mongolian: Эрдэнэ Зуу) is probably the most ancient surviving Buddhist monastery in Mongolia. It is in Övörkhangai Province, near the town of Kharkhorin and adjacent to the ancient city of Karakorum. It is part of the World Heritage Site entitled Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape.
The Erdene Zuu monastery was built in 1585 by Abtai Sain Khan, upon the (second) introduction of Tibetan Buddhism into Mongolia. Stones from the ruins of Karakorum were used in construction] It is surrounded by a wall featuring 102 stupas. The number 108, being a sacred number in Buddhism, and the number of beads in a Buddhist rosary, was probably envisioned, but never achieved. The monastery temples' wall were painted, and the Chinese-style roof was covered with green tiles. The monastery was damaged by warfare in the 1680s, but was rebuilt in the 18th century and by 1872 had a full 62 temples inside.
In 1939 the Communist leader Khorloogiin Choibalsan had the monastery ruined, as part of a purge[7] that obliterated hundreds of monasteries in Mongolia and killed over ten thousand monks. Three small temples and the external wall with the stupas remained; the temples became museums in 1947. They say that this part of the monastery was spared destruction on account of Joseph Stalin's pressure. One researcher claims that Stalin's pressure was connected to the short visit of US vice president Henry A. Wallace's delegation to Mongolia in 1944
Erdene Zuu was allowed to exist as a museum only; the only functioning monastery in Mongolia was Gandantegchinlen Khiid Monastery in the capital, Ulaanbaatar. However, after the fall of Communism in Mongolia in 1990, the monastery was turned over to the lamas and Erdene Zuu again became a place of worship. Today Erdene Zuu remains an active Buddhist monastery as well as a museum that is open to tourists.
On a hill outside the monastery sits a stone phallus. The phallus is said to restrain the sexual impulses of the monks and ensure their good behavior

Durvun Tsagiin Tal - A Mongolian song by Erdene Zuu, Mongolia
Durvun Tsagiin Tal, a haunting Mongolian song by the Erdene Zuu group (named after the temple complex that covers the old Mongolian capital of Karakorum, now Kharkhorin, Övörkhangai province in central Mongolia), played and sung with accompaniment of the Yatga, the traditional Mongolian plucked zither with 21 strings and Khöömi or throat singing, the Mongolian (and Tuvan) overtone singing where two or more distinct pitches are sung at the same time, producing an almost whistling sound.

MONGOLIA - Kartkhorin - Erdene Zuu Monastery
Klasztor Erdenedzuu chijd założony w 1586 przez Abataj-chana. Początkowo posiadał trzy główne świątynie: Dzuundzuu, Ichdzuu i Baruundzuu (odpowiednio: Wschodni Budda, Wielki Budda, Zachodni Budda), a cały ten zespół określano jako Gurwandzuu, czyli Trzech Buddów. Pełna nazwa klasztoru, ze słowem erdene (skarb) oznacza Drogocenne Statuy Buddy. Klasztor szybko się rozbudowywał i w 1792 miał 62 świątynie i ponad pół tysiąca pomniejszych budynków. W 1734 rozpoczęto budowę wielkiego prostokątnego muru otaczającego klasztor z 27 suburganami na każdym boku, zakończoną w 1804. W 1799 zbudowano Złoty Suburgan poświęcony czwartemu Bogdo gegenowi.
Jako jeden z kilku w kraju częściowo przetrwał akcję niszczenia świątyń i mordowania zakonników urządzoną przez komunistów w 1937. Do dziś zachował się zabytkowy mur otaczający kompleks klasztorny, trzy główne świątynie, kilka pomniejszych budynków oraz grobowce Abataj-chana i jego syna Gombodordż Tuszetu-chana, a także Złoty Suburgan i kilka stelli kamiennych z czasów Imperium Mongolskiego. Obecnie w budynkach klasztornych jest muzeum z bogatymi zbiorami lamajskiej sztuki sakralnej.

세계를 호령했던 대 제국의 수도, 하르호린. 그러나 지금은 사원 하나만 덩그러니 남아 초라하게 다가온다. 이곳에 수도를 세우기 시작한 것은 칭기즈 칸인데, 1236년 아들 우구데이 칸 대에 이르러서야 공사를 마쳤다. 그러나 이곳이 중심이 되었던 시간은 잠시. 손자인 쿠빌라이 칸은 1271년 수도를 북경으로 옮긴다. “1586년에 아브테상칸이 하르호린 왕궁을 10분의 1로 축소해서 에르덴조 사원을 세웠습니다. 현재 이 사원의 넓이가 400㎡니까 실제 하르호린의 크기는 4㎢로 추정됩니다.” 라마 불교 사원인 이곳은 담장을 따라 108개의 불탑을 세우고 사방에 문을 두었다. 사원 안에는 3개의 불전이 있는데 각기 어린시절, 청년기, 그리고 성인 모습의 부처가 모셔져 있다. 에르덴조는 백 가지 보물을 뜻한다. 박물관에는 불가의 보물들이 전시되어 있다. 몽골 제국의 영화를 전해 주기에는 너무 초라한 모습이다. 한때 이곳은 1000명이 넘는 라마승이 거주하는 거대한 사원이었다는데, 지금은 몇 십 명의 스님들만이 명맥을 이어 올 뿐이다. 대 제국을 이루었음에도 다른 나라의 보물들을 약탈해오지 않은 것은 유목민이었기 때문일까, 라마 불교의 영향일까 생각에 잠겨 본다.

Cultural Short Tour With Kharkhorin Erdene Zuu Monastery
Buddhism was declared Mongolia's national religion in the 13th century and has been widespread since the 1600s. By 1900, there were 583 monasteries and temples and a trip around some of them can be considered the perfect introduction to Tibetan Buddhism. Among the wonderful monasteries on this tour is Erdene Zuu, built in the 1580s on the site of the ancient imperial capital. One of the oldest monasteries in Mongolia, in its prime there were 10,000 lamas in residence and nearly 60 temples. By the end of the Stalinist purges in the 1930s, however, all but 4 of these temples had been destroyed. You will see the lamas chanting and receive Buddhist empowerments as well as having the opportunity to view the temple's museum complex.
