The site is situated in the area of Khustai National Park on the north side of the river Tuul, in the valley of Tariat. The remains show it was a relatively big jas or monastery. In the valley of the Tariatiin Gol, to its west there are signs of many stone foundations of different sizes and shapes. The Tuul river is on the south of the site nearby. The area is surrounded by hills. On the south-east and west there are two huge burial sites of the ancient times. On the site separate but nearby the stone foundations, wood and piles of brass pots were found. On the north there is a winter residence and people were building small houses there at the time of the visit. On the west we found the two biggest stone foundations with stairs leading up to them – possibly two temple buildings. No trace of digging.
