Itinerary
Wrestling Palace
Arrive at the national wrestling palace in the morning or late morning, entering through the **south gate** (not the gate facing Peace Avenue). Step inside Mongolia’s premier Bökh venue, where locals gather to celebrate strength, tradition, and national pride. Soak in the lively atmosphere as wrestlers prepare and the crowd’s excitement builds. Discover how Bökh dates back over 1,000 years, originating in the military training of Chinggis Khaan’s army and later becoming a central part of the Naadam festival. Watch thrilling matches where wrestlers aim to force opponents to touch the ground with anything other than their feet. Experience the ceremonial eagle dances between rounds, feeling the crowd’s energy and witnessing Mongolia’s living cultural heritage in action.
