One thing! ;D Chinese & Japanese build some gate, I guess it is called "Gate of heaven". By Old Mongol Yosa it is forbitten to cross/enter such gates, old ppl advise to read spells before entering/crossing it. So is there anyone knows? what kind of Feng-shui symbolism does these gates have? surely these gates related with land. (In ancient time if chinese try to build such gates on Mongol land surely these gates will be burned!)

^This gate's called Yampai. There are too many complicated regulations related to this Yampai. We have this Yampai at the Bogd Khaan's Palace Museum, Choijin Lama Temple Museum etc. Also at Gandan.

It,s a Japanese gate. In fact, Chinese erect gate for decoration, in contrast, Japanese endowed more meaning on it. Japanese built gate before some sacred place,e.g. shrines, and temples, etc. I`m talking about this : (I`m not against China/Japan culture but... )

By old Mongolian Yosa it is forbitten to build useless things on Mother earth. If U see that someone left a tent-peg U must pull out from land, if U do so that the land spirits & mother earth will thank U & gave U good luck. It is hard to say that this thing is a real structure. Imagine a Mongol came to visit this place. At first he will see this structure. It looks like a frame of a door after fire or "Gets" place where U tie your horse. Traditionally It is forbitten to go under Gets. Also it is forbitten to cross/stand between 2 things/collumns/tree/ & couple/lovers...etc A proud Mongol will tie his horse from it & will not cross under it because he knows the rule "Usiin n uuval Yosiin n daga" means "If they gave U the water U asked for, after it U can follow their Yosa". Shortly this gate like thing has meaning "Obey!". They didn`t gave the respect U wanted but they demand to obey & follow some rules -That`s not right. Also I don`t like the way some Tsahar Mongols like to build it. These gates not related with true Buddism. I guess this is related with Confucianism. Surely it is not related with decor. ;D

^Adding on why this gate is not good for Mongols. Mongols have a habit. Some may find it strange. When two Mongol walk/travelling together they will not allow someone/something to cross between them. It is also with the street lights/collumns..etc. I mean if 2 Mongol is walking their foot prints will form paralel lines (-if one of them didn`t go pee.) Paralel is almost one line! -Am I right? Let`s see it on one person : Mongols say "Irsen zamaraa sursan duugaa aylaad butsnaa" means "Going back on the road on which U came & singing your newly learned songs" & "Hun orson nuheerei garah yostoi" means "Humans must exit where they entered"="entrance is also the exit" It means Gers don`t have 2 doors & if U entered something U must find the door where U entered.(=must exit). ;D

My love also say "You`r kinda fanatic! just don`t care about it! it`s all superstition! it has no power! it just someones way to make money." Maybe, but so called "Traditions" grow on small beliefs=superstitions. A Mongol doesn`t need to follow chinese beliefs & superstitions.

They say spider bring good luck to house! By Mongol Yosa there should not be any insects inside Ger. Spiders that climbed on your head must be killed.
