Right in the heart of city, this is a perfect museum/temple to explore. It’s only a fragment of the great Khan dynasty that used to exist but it’s amazing to observe the architecture from so many different cultures that once belonged to this empire. Small entry fee and amazing costume collection also

The Choijin Lama Temple (Mongolian: Чойжин ламын сүм; Official name given by Manchu Qing Emperor Guangxu (1871 – 1908): Mongolian: Өршөөлийг хөгжүүлэгч сүм; English; Compassion Perfection Temple, Chinese:興仁寺) is a Buddhist monastery in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia.
The complex consists of six temples originally occupied by the brother of the ruler the Eighth Bogd Jetsun Dampa Khan, Choijin Lama Luvsankhaidav, who was the state oracle and 'Precious Wisdom and Clear Devotion' Khutugtu at the time. The complex was begun in 1904 and completed in 1908, in honor of the State Oracle Lama Lubsanhaidub /Losang Kedrup/, brother of the eighth Bogd Khan.[1] The Choijin Lama Museum was originally a Buddhist temple complex, consisting of one main and five branch temples.[2] It was active until 1937, when it was closed during the height of Communist repression against Buddhism and other religious traditions.[3] In 1938 the complex was re-established as museum due to skillful efforts of wise people. This was how it was saved throughout communism

Magnificent temple and museum, a great example of Buddhist heritage of Mongolia. The traditional architecture and relics within make this temple worth the visit.

Good temple museum to visit. Worth an hour or two as it's close to the main square.

Temple is located just behind the main square. There are around 5 smaler temples on the territory of the museum.
It doesn't take long to check everything there.
Also, get into gifts shop - they have some good handmade stuff.

A traditional Buddhist temple with literally no single person walk in.
The hell painting inside is pretty scary. Sadly to see the place become real historic site or tourist site which no use in community anymore.

A nice place for tourists to visit. Very informative and guides are available. Not too expensive for 8k entrance fee too. Would recommend!

Very peaceful place in the middle of a very busy city. Several temples to visit. The lady in the gift shop is very knowledgeable and has excellent English. Yes she will try to sell you stuff, but not at all pushy. Large selection of literature on Mongolian culture and history.
