Photo Of The Day: Mongolian Ger

Mark describes the photo as "A ger, sometimes called a yurt, sits on the Steppes near Mandalgovi, Mongolia."
A ger or yert is a portable, bent wood-framed dwelling structure traditionally used by nomads in the Mongolian-Manchurian Steppes, which covers an area of 887,300 square kilometers. Mandalgovi is the capital of the Dundgovi Province of Mongolia on the border of the Gobi Desert.
