Gobi in Mongolian means "dry and gravel desert land". Gobi is about 1600 kilometers, total area about 1300000 square kilometers, Gobi Desert is the world's fifth largest desert. Gobi is also the home of Mongolia Empire, the Hun's active site. The Gobi formation is due to the rain shadow effect of Himalaya Range blocking rain arrived in Gobi area.

The main reason of how it forms is because of the floods. When the flood, especially in the mountains during the flood, the flood gradually weakened from energy, forms the following features in the flooded area: large rocks piled up in the mountain pass from the recent Rock Hill, to progressively smaller; then there is the size of a fist to the finger size rocks. Because the sun, rain and wind erosion Months and years pass by, edges and corners are rounded gradually, become what we call stone. So, Gobi also formed. And the more fine sand and mud are alluvial, drifting farther, the formation of more distant desert. 

cultural workers from Xinjiang Turpan area  in the northern Flaming Mountains  found a large mysterious "rocks circle"in Gobi. These "rocks circle covers an area of about ten thousand acres. "Rocks circle" is located in Turpan County of Shanshan province lianmuqin town of the Gobi.
