Abstract: This article relies on historical geography method to explain why the ancient Buddhist settlements in Mongolia moved while bringing their belongings, how Buddhism and the surrounding events affected the settlement, and what happened to the settlement after the migration ended. The establishment of religious communities, their customs, traditions and teachings have significantly influenced on the shift from a nomadic to an urbanized ‘mindset’ and a way of living. Subsequently, this laid the basis of Ulaanbaatar’s social economic, and cultural relations. As a result of studies, we came to conclusion that Ulaanbaatar’s chronology need to be calculated starting in 1778 thanks to the advantages brought about by the religious settlements extended stay in one location.
