An exhibition of photographs,  on show until July 10 at the art gallery in
the Cultural Palace, gives evidence of the contemporary effect of the Mongol
Empire on societies in the huge landmass it controlled, as also of how
Mongolian-origin communities dispersed in diverse areas of the world over
centuries are trying to preserve their historical, linguistic, and cultural
roots. The 120 pictures have been chosen from some 30,000 used in a very
popular multi-part program broadcast by Mongolian National Broadcasting TV and
Educational TV.
