Notes :
According to D. Ad-Zana (born 1935) and his wife, who lived in the area when she was a child, Khalzan Gelengiin jas had only one wooden temple, which was burnt down later. The jas assemblies didn’t have permanent ceremonies, monks from Bogdiin Khüree came from time to time to celebrate and hold the bigger ceremonies. On these occasions 30-40 monks gathered here, but only 4-5 monks lived here permanently. The abbot (Khamba) of the assembly was Üngüi/ Öngöö gelen, who was a very significant monk. D. Ad-Zana also mentioned the name of the chanting master Unzad, Ulaan Malgait Jamts. The jas was situated between two brooks and near the mountain called Baga Khairkhan.
