Ulaangom (/ʊˈlɑːnɡəm/; Mongolian: Улаангом [ʊˈɮaˑɴɢɜm]; Oirat: Уланһом [ʊˈlaŋɣɔm]) is the capital of Uvs Province in Mongolia.
It is divided into two suburban areas named Chandmani (Чандмань) and Uliasny Khev (Улиасны Хэв).
Historical evidence indicates that there were grain plantations in operation in late 17th century in the area of Ulaangom.
[3] Ulaangom experiences an extremely continental cold semi-arid climate (Köppen BSk) with long, dry, frigid winters and short, warm summers.
Owing to its location in a deep valley near the center of the Siberian High, Ulaangom is subject to temperature inversions reaching up to 13.0 °C or 23.4 °F colder than middle and upper mountain slopes.
