The traditional habitat of the nomadic peoples of the steppe is the subject of this passage. The traditional Mongolian yurt is the most important feature of nomadic life in Mongolia. It has existed for around 2000 years and is a one-room family dwelling. It has several beds or sofas, a wardrobe and a coffee table.
