On Mongolian customs and habits

Mongolian people have a long history, wide geographical distribution and colorful customs. But as a nation, the basic characteristics are actually the same, and we know that the Mongolian people are warm and hospitable.

So, what kind of customs do Mongolians have? Let's take a look at it next!

Mongolian customs and habits

Etiquette custom

Mongolians, whether acquaintances or strangers, always greet each other warmly: "He is a perfect match." (Hmm), then the host put his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and invited the guests into the yurt. The whole family, old and young, sat around the guests, asking questions as if they were at home.

Usually, after drinking milk tea, a generous host will always put sweet butter, milk skin, mellow milk wine, crispy fried fruit, fried rice, milk tea, cheese and "hand-grilled meat" with unique grassland flavor in front of the guests and invite them to drink a feast. If the host has special respect for the guests, he often puts milk jugs and hip jugs on Hada's top, and sometimes sings some welcome and friendly songs to persuade the guests to drink. The guest took a sip, and the host was very happy. When you meet a banquet, please invite special distinguished guests or festivals, and often put a whole sheep mat. Mongolians call it "black tea", while others call it "Hughes" and "Buhuli". When guests say goodbye, they often send their families away, point out the way and repeatedly say "Bai Yitai Day!" On the 11th, Wu Taicha Reya (I hope we can meet again happily), "A Mu Day, Saiyin, Yaba!" Have a safe trip.

Present Hada

Hada is a Tibetan transliteration. It is often used to welcome, give gifts, worship God, pay New Year greetings and celebrate to show respect and congratulations. This etiquette has a long history. According to Kyle Poirot's travel notes, Mongolians "give each other gifts made of gold, silver, jade and white silk during the Spring Festival holiday".
