Anyone who likes to study the history of Genghis Khan knows that Genghis Khan's old camp is next to the River of Trouble. So, which city is Genghis Khan's old camp in today? In Mongolia, but the population is too small! The good news is that there is a "four-different" animal in the territory!
The River of Trouble
On May 31, 1162, Genghis Khan was born in the upper reaches of the Mubei Nan River. Later, Genghis Khan called this place the old camp, and the old mother and other family members lived here.
According to the records, the Hunan River is a river mainly located in Mongolia and Russia, which belongs to the Heilongjiang River system. The river originates in the eastern foothills of the Little Kent Mountains in Mongolia, with a basin area of 94,000 square kilometers, and merges with the Yingoda River to form the Shileka River, before flowing into the Heilongjiang River.
It was this body of water that nurtured Genghis Khan and began to wage large-scale wars against the outside world.

Genghis Khan was a family lover, and wherever he went, he would arrange for his old mother to live in the old camp. The old camp is near his birthplace and is the root of Genghis Khan. Whenever he went out on a campaign, he would leave troops to garrison here and protect his family.
The Mongols liked to live with the water and grass, and although Genghis Khan's old camp had changed several times, it was all in the Valley of the Troubled River. So, which city is Genghis Khan's old camp in today?
After years of research and visits, Meng Songlin, executive deputy director of the Mongolian Ethnic Origin Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and president of the Hulunbuir City", finally concluded that Genghis Khan's old camp was in the Black Mountain of Dieriwen Boleda by the Bindal Sumu River. Today, the area is within the territory of Dadalsumu in The Kent Province of Mongolia.
So, what about Genghis Khan's old camp now?
Kent
The red area above is the province of Kent. The province is located between the eastern and central provinces of Mongolia, bordering 82,000 square kilometers with Oriental Province to the east, Sukhbatel Province to the southeast, Eastern Gobi Province to the south, Central Province to the west, Selenge Province to the northwest, and Russia to the north.
This city is a relatively developed city in Mongolia, is the fortress of road traffic in the eastern provinces of Mongolia, in all directions, to the west to Ulaanbaatar, to the east to the Choba Mountains, northeast to the border via Bayan Ula, south to SaiyinShanda via West Ult, is also the center of air transport in the eastern region of Mongolia.
The mineral resources of this province are also rich, with smoke-grained crystal, gold, lead, fluorite, coal, steel and so on. However, the population of this province is too small, just 90,000 people! However, it is impressive that there is a four-different animal living here!
Four is not like animals
What is the four-like animal? Because its head and face resemble a horse, horns resemble a deer, neck resembles a camel, and tail resembles a donkey, it is named "Four No Elephants", also known as Father David's deer, which is a rare animal in the world.
This animal, known in China as the elk, is native to the swampy areas of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China and feeds on grasses and aquatic plants. Later, due to natural climate change and human factors, it was nearly extinct at the end of the Han Dynasty.
During the genghis Khan period, in order to provide for hunting, the remaining elk were captured and transported to the royal hunting grounds for breeding, and some of them were also sent back to the old camp of the HouNan River. Therefore, in today's genghis Khan old camp, you can still see this four-unlike animal.
