An independent municipality, the city is not part of any province, and its population as of 2014 is over 1.3 million. Located in north central Mongolia, the city lies at an elevation of about 1,310m (4,300ft) in a valley on the Tuul River. It is the cultural, industrial, and financial heart of the country. It is the centre of Mongolia's road network, and is connected by rail to both the Trans-Siberian Railway in Russia and the Chinese railway system. The city was founded in 1639 as a movable (nomadic) Buddhist monastic center. In 1778, it settled permanently at its present location, the junction of the Tuul and Selbe rivers. Before that, it changed location twenty-eight times.

Gandantegchinlen Monastery: is a Tibetan-style Buddhist monastery that has been restored and revitalized since 1990. The Tibetan name translates to the Great Place of Complete Joy. It currently has over 150 monks in residence. It features a 26.5-meter-high statue of Avalokitesvara. It came under state protection in 1994.

The Main Square: Sukhbaatar Square is the central square of Mongolia's capital Ulaanbaatar. A large colonnade monument to Genghis Khan, as well as to Ogedei Khan, and Kublai Khan dominates the square's north side directly in front of the Government Palace. The center of the square features an equestrian statue of Damdin Sükhbaatar, one of the leaders of Mongolia's 1921 revolution.

National Historical Museum: was established in 1924 and became the basis for other museums, including the National Museum of Mongolian History. The National Museum of Mongolia is currently recognized as one of the leading museums in Mongolia. The significant responsibility for preserving Mongolian cultural heritage therefore lies with the museum. It is also responsible for developing museological guidelines for museums in the nation. Exhibitions cover prehistory, pre-Mongol Empire history, Mongol Empire, Mongolia during Qing rule, ethnography and traditional life, and twentieth-century history. The ethnographic collection has significant displays of the traditional dress of various Mongolian ethnic groups and of snuff bottles.

The New Museum of "Chinggis Khan (Genghis Khan)": We will visit the new museum "Genghis Khan" ("Chinggis Khaan"), which finally opened its doors on October 11, 2022. The museum is designed to show the history of the Mongol kings from the reign of the Hunnu king Modun Shanyu to the abdication of the Eighth Jebtsundamba. The Genghis (Chinggis) Khaan National Museum has been named one of the 20 must-visit museums by National Geographic. The "World's Best List" is compiled each year by the editors of National Geographic. The Genghis Khan National Museum was named one of the 20 best museums to visit this year. The Royal Museum gilds what should be gilded, gilds and silvers, gilts and silvers, bronzes and bronzes. My younger brother Mandasuren raced with some friends. The 5 images on the front are the seals of great kings. Genghis Khan, Ogodei Khan, Khuvilai Khan, etc., but the seals of the kings are embossed in the middle surrounded by ancient dragon motifs and animal depictions. The dragon was an image of a golden dragon that our archaeologists found in a Hun tomb. But the seal of the kings could not stand out because it was covered by the pattern, but it looks nice from a distance. The dragon was an ancient Mongolian symbol of respect, and it was later adopted by the Chinese, who proved to our scholars that the seals of Mongolian noble tribes are depicted on the east wall of the museum. It can be said that all the seals found in the Rashaan Khad of Binder Sum are included. The stone academician thought very sensibly and intended to make the door majestic. Two doors of honor filled with metal decorations. I thought to myself, I wish I had used Hun motifs. The doorknobs are different, and reflect the wonderful craftsmanship of the findings of the Mongol period.
