Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia on Google Earth/Maps - Improved Satellite image



Google maps and Google earth have improved their satellite images. It gives quite an amzing view on Mongolia and especially Ulaanbaatar.
The circus seems to have been designed to see from the sky, the overcharging city taxis are waiting in front of the State Department Store, the Government palace can be clearly seen, and of course the mondriaan of ger areas.

Thanks to Robin.

I've searched for a Mongolian site myself for a while for a flag. Each time I found someone their server was in another country.

Please stop in and leave me a flag too... :)

Google earth is almost scary how you can find almost anyting anywhere at anytime.

Ah cool, now they have updated google maps too, it was only in google earth for a while. Looking at various details, the data appears to be from about spring 2005.
