It is a rocky orphan mountain made of small grains of granite located in the depression between the Mongolian Altai Mountains and the Gobi Altai Mountains in the Tsogt Sum area of the Gobi-Altai province. It is 200 km away from Altai city in the southwest of Mongolia. Since 1992, this 22.475-hectare area is protected as a Natural Reserve. The locals venerate the granite formations of Eej Khairkhan. They think that the mountain is sacred and protects their children. What is singular in these rocky formations, is that they're lined by a waterfall running along the rock and flowing into nine natural "stone pots" of 2 to 4 metres (6,56-13,12 feet) in diameter. Many paintings representing ibex, horsemen and archers can be seen on the rocks. On the spot, you will also see the cave of a hermit containing Buddhist statues and an altar-shaped rock that is venerated by the locals.
