On the 90th anniversary of the founding of the modern museum and the 93rd anniversary of the People's Revolution in Mongolia, the Mongolian Military Museum is opening a “horse-based cultures” exhibition along with Dundgovi provincial museum until July 4th.

Dundgovi is famous in Mongolia for its fast horses and singers. At the exhibition, a collection of traditional cultural objects including horse related objects and airag is on display. There are also a whole suit of ancient Mongolian warrior’s armor on the horse and senior army service men and soldiers saddles from around the 1930s. Other items from the archives of the Mongolian Military Museum will also be displayed at the exhibition.

The items include a full complex horse saddle with silver attire and a silver horse bridle, horse branding irons, horse bit, airag bowls, an airag spoon made of horn, a sandalwood bucket, a sheepskin sack for airag, and horse sculptures and a borjigin horse-head fiddle.
