National Museum and Folk Concert

On Saturday I went to the National Museum of Mongolia to kill some time. Luckily, the museum was definitely worth visiting. An entire floor is dedicated to the different clothing of the 20 or so different ethnic groups. The museum also included a large section of prehistoric tools, a wing dedicated to the rule of Genghis Khan and quite a bit of information on the years of Soviet control. After the museum, I met the rest of the volunteers in my program and went to a folk music concert. The concert was definitely designed with Western tourists in mind but was still fun.
