🇲🇳 How to recognise Mongolia in Street View

Mongolia is in East Asia. Here's how to tell you've landed in Mongolia when Far Fetched drops you there in Street View.

Clues to look for

Cyrillic signs, vast open grassland with almost no trees, and round white gers (yurts).

Driving side

Cars in Mongolia drive on the right. So do Taiwan, South Korea and North Korea, which are also in East Asia. Most of the world drives on the right, so this alone won't narrow it down much: check the signs next.
