The capital of Zavkhan Province is Uliastai. It is located 1,115 kilometers from Ulaanbaatar. The history of Uliastai began in 1733 with the establishment of a Manchu garrison. In January 1912 Mongolia’s new government liberated Uliastai from Manchu rule. Uliastai city has a relatively cold climate due to its location in the cool Khangai region.
