It seemed as if these lovely animals had stepped out of a painting. People drove them, living nicely with nature. Their way of life showed that they believed“clear water and green mountains are invaluable treasures” Visiting Altay was a real eye-opener for me.

The groom was Mongol, and the bride was Sibe. Their wedding mixed traditions from both cultures. The whole village came to celebrate.
