What To Expect
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.

5.00This is a rare experience to witness a cultural activity among Mongolians. Ticket was issued via QR code and was efficiently dropped off at the venue by the tour operator. Clear English communication via Whatsapp despite the driver not speaking English
Most unique cultural experience

5.00One of the coolest experiences I’ve ever been to. Upgrading to VIP was well worth it. Received snacks and drinks from the venue. We were lucky enough to cheer on Orkhonbayar, the reigning Bökh champion. The service was great and would recommend anyone travel to visit during Naadam in July to get the full experience and witness Orkhonbayar defend and earn the title of State Champion.
Nice Mongolian Bökh
