Dark sights in Bulgan City

  1. Khatanbaatar Magsarjav Mausoleum

    Located across the stream and at the top of a hill, this curious blue building looks like a concrete ger but is actually a mausoleum in the shape of a hat. It allegedly contains the remains of Khatanbaatar Magsarjav, a key figure in the 1911 Revolution, who helped to liberate the city of Khovd from Chinese rule. There are some murals of battle scenes inside but to see them you'll need to get the keys from the caretaker. Ask at the Aimag Museum.
