Canvas yurts cluster on a rocky meadow, horses pawing at the stubble, and a wind that has moved across these steppe ridges for centuries pushes the scent of smoke and boiled kumis toward you. Guides in embroidered tunics invite conversation; drummers and archers prepare behind a line of low, wooden fences.
