Full Day Tour of Ulaanbaatar With Museum, Black-market Cashmere Factory Store

Beauty of Mongolia

The Naran Tuul market is the great traditional market of the capital known also under the name of “Black market”. Located on the east side of the city, this market impresses by its stretch and kaleidoscopic atmosphere. Reputed for having plentiful products at low-cost, Naran Tuul attract as many city-dwellers as nomads, who come to get material supplies. The market is divided into different sections, for which one part is outdoor and is dedicated to bigger furniture such as couch, beds, and equipment for the gers. Anything can be found but essentially traditional Mongolian items needed for the daily life: traditional clothing, cashmere, boots, and saddles. A true immersion in the Mongolian culture for the ones desiring to discover another side of Mongolia.

The National Museum of Mongolia formerly the National Museum of Mongolian History is located in Ulaanbaatar. This museum is a cultural, scientific, and educational organization, which is responsible for the collection, conservation and interpretation of the objects under its curation. The first museum in Mongolia, the Mongolian National Museum (now the Mongolian Natural History Museum), was established in 1924 and became the basis for other museums, including the National Museum of Mongolian History. Russian scholars, such as Pyotr Kozlov, V. I. Lisovskii, A. D. Simukov, and the American researcher Roy Chapman Andrews contributed to the museum's early collections and exhibits.
