The Tula River runs over 700 kilometres in central and northern Mongolia
. This river
, sacred for the Mongols, passes south of Ulaanbaatar
, the capital of the country. The exploitation of subsoil wealth ensures a fast growing Mongolia, which exports coal, gold, and copper to neighbouring China
.
In recent years, the country has become more urbanised and more than two thirds of the Mongols now live in cities.
