The Flaming Cliffs site, also known as Bayanzag, lies in the north-western part of the Gobi Desert, in Ömnögovi province.
The region is also famous for the major fossil discoveries made there. 70 million years ago, this landscape of blazing rock formations — which gives the site its name, “Flaming Cliffs” — amid near-fluorescent green vegetation, saw dinosaurs roaming. Today, you could easily mistake it for a landscape from the American West.
