There are many unique Mongolian artifacts you can buy in Ulaanbaatar. Perhaps the most popular product with tourists is the high-quality cashmere made here. You can buy from the factory shops, the department store and various museum shops.

Traditional Mongolian art is very evocative of its unique culture and you can buy various sizes of paintings on paper, canvas or wood as well as Buddhist Tankas on silk. Buy from museum shops, large hotel shops, and art shops.

For Buddhist paraphernalia visit Gandan Monastery and the shops there.
