In Mongolia pictures we see the land of Genghis Khan... with a few changes

The most famous Mongolian has got to be Genghis Khan. Looking at modern Mongolia pictures makes me wonder what these places and people looked like in his day, and what he would think of his land now. The picture sets you see here show Mongolia in the 21st Century.
Here you see a new memorial for him in the capital city of Mongolia. Despite (or perhaps because of) their small population compared to their giant neighbors China and Russia, the Mongolian people have great pride in their culture and the focus of that is in Genghis Khan.
