Offering hada is a etiquette used by Mongolian herdsmen to greet guests and in daily interactions.

When offering a hada, the host holds the hada with open hands, chants auspicious wishes or praises, exaggerates the atmosphere of respect, and at the same time points the folded opening of the hada toward the guests receiving the hada.

Guests should stand up and face the hada presenter, and concentrate on listening to the toast and accepting the toast.

When receiving the hada, the guest should bow slightly forward, and the person presenting the hada should hang the hada around the guest's neck.

Guests should put their hands together in front of their chests to express their gratitude to the person who presented the hada.

Serving tea: When visiting a herdsman's house or at a tourist spot, the host or the waitress will first serve the guest a bowl of milk tea.

Guests should stand up slightly and use both hands or right hand to receive the gift. Never use the left hand to receive the gift, otherwise it will be considered as not being etiquette.

When the host or waitress is pouring tea, if the guest does not want tea, please gently touch the spoon or spout with the edge of the bowl, and the host will immediately understand the guest's intention.

Offering tea to guests is a noble traditional Mongolian etiquette.

In the history of Mongolia, tea was always used as a social treat, whether in a wealthy family or a poor family, in the upper class or among the common people, socially or at home, on a journey, or on all other occasions.

Toast: Pour wine and toast guests, which is the traditional way of Mongolian hospitality.

They believe that fine wine is the essence of food and the crystallization of grains. They offer the most precious food to express the respect and love of the grassland shepherds to their guests.

Usually the host pours the wine into a silver bowl, gold cup or horn cup, puts it on a long hada, and sings a touching Mongolian traditional toast song. If the guest refuses to drink, he will be considered to be disrespectful to the host.

Look down on him and don't want to treat him sincerely.

Guests should immediately catch the wine, dip their ring fingers in the wine and tap it in the direction of heaven, earth and the stove to show their respect to the gods of heaven, earth and fire.

Worshiping gods: Mongolian people have the custom of worshiping gods at their banquets.

The sixth piece is dedicated to the mountain, the seventh piece is dedicated to the tomb, the eighth piece is dedicated to the land and water gods, and the ninth piece is dedicated to the emperor."
