Biyelgee (Mongolian Cyrillic: Биелгээ) or Bii (Mongolian Cyrillic: Бий), is a unique form of dance, originated from the nomadic way of life in Mongolia.
Almost all regions populated by different ethnic groups of Mongolia have their specific forms of Biyelgee. The Western Mongols (Oirats) are particularly famous for their Biyelgee dance.
