Cultural expression, fueled by the Buddhist renaissance, is manifested in a variety of mediums, from sculpture, calligraphy and painting to music, song and dance. Reflected throughout both traditional and modern art and music is a sense of profound connection with the land and appreciation of the country’s incredible natural beauty. A highlight of any visit to the Three Camel Lodge is attending a performance including Mongolian instruments, traditional dancing, and the hauntingly beautiful artistry of hoomi (throat) singing. Hoomi singing opens a small window on an incredibly complex and rich heritage and has often been described as "double singing" because it sounds like several notes being produced simultaneously. Perfecting this eerily beautiful acoustic singing requires years of training and is produced by the precise control of the larynx, mouth, and abdominal muscles.
