Kharkhorum Museum, History museum in Kharkhorin, Mongolia.
The Kharkhorum Museum displays findings from excavations at the ruins of Karakorum, which was once an important city in this region. The exhibits come from many different time periods, starting with early stone tools and continuing through medieval objects.
The site was once a major trading city and later became the center of a vast empire. The buildings whose remains are dug up today came from a time of great power and importance.
The collections here show objects from different periods that shaped life in this region over thousands of years. You see pottery, tools, and jewelry that tell how people lived and traded with each other.
A visit is easiest if you check opening hours beforehand, since these can vary. Knowledgeable staff are on hand and happy to help you understand the displayed objects and their background.
A letter from a historical leader with his personal seal deserves special attention in the collection here. This document shows how people communicated with each other and expressed their power during that era.
