I'm planning a trip to Mongolia in Sept.- the 1st through the 17th. We will be going mostly south from Ulaan Baatar. What can we expect as far as weather condidtions like temperature range and rain?
Thank You.

Due to extreme climatic changes the World is experiencing at the moment, trying to predict the weather can be difficult because of local, on the day variations.
Most places now are seeing weather conditions well outside the norm.
The information below should be used as a guide only.
Here is the average weather for Ulaanbaatar & Dalanzadgad for this time of year.
Enjoy your holiday.

This large building on the south-western corner of Sukhbaatar Square is the main post office and communication centre. You can make phones calls (which are a lot expensive than via internet phone places such as the one on nearby Baga Toyruu near the UB Guesthouse) and use the internet (which again is a lot more expensive than internet cafes around the city centre). It has a good souvenir/mobile phone/stamp shop at the back which is worth a look around.
Archers use a bent composite bow made of layered horn, bark and wood. Usually, arrows are made from willows and the feathers are from vultures and other birds of prey. Traditionally dressed male archers stand 75m from the target, while women archers stand 60m from it. The target is a line of up to 360-round gray, red and/or yellow leather rings (known as sur) on the ground. Usually there are only about 20 or 30 rings. After each shot, special judges who stand near the target (but miraculously never get injured) emit a short cry called a uukhai and raise their hands in the air to indicate the quality of the shot. The winner who hits the targets the most times is declared the best archer or mergen.
The real Mongolia is really outside Ulaanbaatar and it is a must to travel outside to experience to open plains, rolling green hills, stay in a Mongolian ger, go horse-riding, meet the nomads etc. Trust me it will be a really unique and unforgetable experience.
This was one of two pizza places we frequented in Ulaanbaatar, the other one being Pizza Broadway. Planet Pizza is definitely the more "Fast foodish" of both of them, and a little cheaper also. Not the best quality ingredients but if if you like your pizza thick crust style, you'll be happy. After all, pizza's pizza. don't get your hopes up-No Chinggis beer to drink with it : )
I don't usually like going to museums so much, but this one was fascinating. It had a bit of everything like stuffed animals, a ger (yurt), some history and of course the big dinosaur skeleton. The museum also has a café (on the balcony in the dinasaur hall) if you need a rest like I did. There is an entry fee.
Also on the next block north there is the Natural history museum.

Q: Going to Mongolia "We've always wanted to go to Mongolia, and Ulaanbaatar, during Ulaanbaatar's Naadam festival. The airfares, however, during that..."
A: "August 15th is the Gobi Nadaam Festival held at Khongor sand dunes in the southern Gobi desert. It's a much smaller (thus less touristy) affair."
