Pope Francis lands in Mongolia's capital city of Ulaanbaatar at the Chinggis Khaan International Airport.
The Foreign Minister greets the Pope at the foot of the plane. A young woman offers him a special gift—a cup of dry yogurt.
When the country declared independence and became the Mongolian People's Republic in 1924, the capital city was renamed Ulaanbaatar, which means “Red Hero.”
