MUSEUM
( 01562-22187; admission T2000; 9am-1pm & 2-6pm Tue-Sat)
This excellent museum is
inside the 18th-century home of the Tsetseg Khan, who governed most of eastern Mon-
golia during the Manchu reign. Standout exhibits include ethnic costumes and Khalkha
silver jewellery, a shaman outfit complete with skull and feathers, a portrait of the last
Tsetseg Khan, painted in 1923, handmade chess sets, and wooden spiral puzzles. The
corner building houses 13th-century weaponry including arrowheads and daggers. Also,
look out for the ceremonial ger with delicately carved wood furnishing and ornaments.
