Mongolia offers a unique blend of ancient traditions and stunning landscapes, making it an appealing destination for some Australian travelers. While its tourism infrastructure is still developing, the country's distinctive experiences could attract a portion of the 300,000 Australians who travel internationally each year.
Mongolia is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, ranked 44th out of 160 countries on the Global Peace Index. However, it is less safe than Australia, which ranks 19th. The murder rate in Mongolia is higher at 6.2 per 100,000 people compared to Australia’s 0.7. While organized crime exists, Mongolia's scores on the Global Organized Crime Index indicate a lower presence of mafia groups and organized crime networks compared to Australia. Nonetheless, some crime rates, such as human trafficking and flora crime, are more concerning in Mongolia. Overall, while Mongolia is relatively safe for tourists, visitors should remain aware of their surroundings and take standard precautions.
