An ovoo on the hill top

Ovoos are often found at the top of mountains and in high places, like mountain passes.
In modern times, some of them have developed into large and elaborate structures, becoming more like temples than simple altars.
They serve mainly as sites for the worship of Heaven and lesser gods led by shamans and kins' elders, but also for Buddhist ceremonies.

The photo was captured with the iPhone 6s Plus because I left my camera equipment down in the car at the starting point.
