Well you're one up on me. I never heard of the town. Just looked north and noticed Mongolia fit the bill, then picked the largest city I saw.

http://www.lonelyplanet.com/maps/asia/mongolia/

Any back story behind why you choose this location?

As to your Question- Yes

Almost every country in the world has parks, some are even fairly famous.

If it helps any there is a town of the same name in the country I'm in.

No, between the tropic of capricorn and the equator.

In fact I had to go make sure the equator did not run through this park. It's south of the equator, but just barely.
