Guest guest Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 Another un pc traditional group - Although some of the Chinese Mongolian have become city-dwellers and live in Soviet-style apartments, most of them are farmers living in rural areas. Their principal crops include barley, wheat, oats, corn, millet, and potatoes. A number of the Chinese Mongolian have continued to live as semi-nomads, migrating seasonally with their sheep, horses, cattle, and camels. They live in portable gers or yurts, which are round felt tents over lattice frames. The diet of the Chinese Mongolian consists primarily of fat, meat, milk, and dairy products. Large amounts of fat and mutton are eaten during the winter, and dairy products such as yogurt, cheese, and sour cream are eaten during the summer. Their favorite drink is kumiss, which is fermented mare's milk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
