Along with archery and horse racing, Mongolian wrestling is one of the “three national sports” of the Naadam Festival. A total of 512 wrestlers from across the country gather in the capital Ulaanbaatar to proudly display to the eyes of all their strength and virility, and hope to win the title of national champion.
The winner of the wrestling competition will be given a Land Cruiser 200 by Toyota Motors Corp. The company has been awarding the winners for the last years. The award will be presented to the winner on Sukhbaatar Square on 13 July.
