Khövsgöl Aimag Museum
Khövsgöl Aimag Museum
May 19, 2024

  Given the variety of wildlife in the aimag, stuffed animals such as the ibex and the lynx are, not surprisingly, the main feature of the museum; there's also a large tusk from a woolly mammoth dating back at least 40,000 years. Highlights of the ethnographic display include a beribboned shaman's outfit, a wooden Tsaatan saddle and furry skis, a Choijin robe with a skull-bedecked headpiece, and a rare sukh khuur (swan's-head fiddle).
