One Hundre Trees Oasis, is a small oasis on the northern edge of the Gobi desert where Gobi desert begins. This oasis although small, provides food and drinking water to herders and their livestock, as well as to travellers. It also offers relief to those herders who bring their cattle out for grazing.
Ekhiingol is another small and isolated oasis in the southern part of Gobi surrounded by barrent desert. This place are used for agriculture. Tomatoes, peppers, watermelon, cucumber, and some fruit can be planted here.
