Genghis Khan Equestrian Statue, Stainless steel equestrian statue in Nalaikh, Mongolia

The stainless steel structure rises 40 meters into the sky, depicting Genghis Khan mounted on his horse atop a 10-meter circular base.

Built in 2008 to mark 800 years of the Mongol Empire, the monument stands at the location where Genghis Khan reportedly found a golden whip.

The base features 36 supporting columns, each representing a different Mongol ruler, from the first Khan through the final ruler, Ligdan Khan.

Visitors can enter the interior of the structure and climb to the horse's head to view the surrounding landscape through observation windows.

A reconstructed Mongolian settlement surrounds the statue, presenting traditional tribal life from the 13th century to modern visitors.
