With a capacity of 100 people at a time, a brand new ski resort has opened at Khui Doloon Khudag, 32 km from Ulaanbaatar.
The location is best known for the horse racing which takes place in July during Naadam. Designed to provide leisure for the general public and to attract tourists in the winter season, the ‘UB Resort’ is being modernised with funding from the Ulaanbaatar City Administration budget.
So far, an area for playing an ice version of the traditional Mongolian game of knucklebones and an ice-skating rink have already opened at Khui Doloon Khudag. With the opening of the ski resort the ‘Mongol Naadam Complex’ can now operate the whole year round.
