Central Museum of Dinosaurs of Mongolia, Paleontology museum in Chingeltei, Mongolia
The Central Museum of Dinosaurs of Mongolia exhibits numerous dinosaur fossils and skeletons discovered throughout the Mongolian territory, including complete Tarbosaurus specimens.
Founded in 1974, the museum merged with the Natural History Museum in 2019, leading to the transfer of its collections to new premises.
The museum functions as an educational center where visitors learn about Mongolia's geological past through displays of original fossils and informative presentations.
Museum guides provide tours in Mongolian and English, with operating hours from 10 AM to 7 PM in summer and 9 AM to 6 PM in winter.
The museum recovered several important specimens through international legal cases, including a Tarbosaurus bataar skull returned by actor Nicolas Cage.
