Otgontenger
Otgontenger ( mn, Отгонтэнгэр, , "youngest sky") is the highest peak in the Khangai Mountains in Mongolia. Its summit is currently calculated to reach an elevation of 4,008 meters above mean sea level (some earlier topographic maps record a maximum elevation of 4,021 m). The mountain is located in Zavkhan Province and is the only peak in the Khangai range that is capped with a permanent glacier. The south face of Mount Otgontenger is the most extensive granite wall in Mongolia.

Tengger Desert
The Tengger Desert or Tengri Desert ( mn, Тэнгэр цөл, ) is an arid natural region that covers about 36,700 km2 and is mostly in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in China. The desert is expanding in size.Haner, Josh, et al. (24 October 2016)Living in China's Expanding Deserts ''The New York Times'' Environmental issues The expansion of the Tengger and its neighbour, the Badain Jaran Desert, has been apparent since the 1950s, when large volumes of water were diverted from rivers to feed agricultural expansion and huge tracts of forest were removed. Since 1958, local governments have mobilised residents for afforestation campaigns to prevent the desert's spread. By 2004, the desert's expansion was estimated as 10 metres per year in some areas. In 2007, a non-profit organisation founded by residents of Minqin County created square ditches lined with hay and grass that they later planted with saxaul to stabilise the sand dunes. In 2010, the central and regional govern ...

Tengger (singer)
Tengger ( Mongolian: , ''lit. "sky"''; ; born 15 January 1960), also known as Tenger or Tengri, is a Mongolian singer, songwriter and composer of Mongol ethnicity in Inner Mongolia. He is one of the most representative Mongol male singers as his most famous works, including songs ''Mongol'' and ''Tiantang'' (Heaven), reflect the Mongolian culture, while he uses other elements later in his career, making his music a combination of various kinds of Chinese pop music. Personal life Early life and education Tengger was born in Otog Banner, Inner Mongolia in the Sainbayar family. Both of his parents were folk singers so he and his four other siblings all aspired to follow suit. Because of an incident in junior high school, he became uninterested in academics.
