Khan Uul Ovoo
People walking circles around one of the ovoos, tossing offerings of milk, rice, millet, bread, cheese, candy...

So first you kneel, clasp your hands, then lay forward.
Then put offerings on this table.
Then walk a circle around this, still making offerings.
Offerings.

Walking circles around incense.
