National Museum of Mongolian History
The Museum of National History has a number of fascinating displays of traditional Mongolian clothing and weaponry, as well as exhibits charting the course of Genghis Khan's empire-building.
Terelj National Park
The imposing cliffs and gentle valleys of Terelj are a wilderness refuge within reach of Ulaanbaatar. The forested slopes are home to moose and brown bear; the skies are filled with the silhouettes of hunting birds; the pure headwaters of the Tuul River abound with whitefish and the Taimen, Mongolia's indigenous salmon.
The Winter Palace of Bogd Khaan
The Bogd Khaan Museum consists of a two-story winter house built for the Mongol ruler by Tsar Nicholas the Second of Russia, as well as a series of temples. Peaceful and serene, it is pleasant to wander round.
