The Reindeer people’s unique lifestyle is still attracting the attention of journalists, photographers, film makers and tourists as well. They live in wild virgin taiga of Khuvsgul, where it is minus 40 celcius degree in winter, herd reindeer for four seasons. They are shamans who have inherited shamanism from generation to generation. This is a totally different world, totally different customs than you can imagne and gives you strange feeling.
