Genghis Khan who is the legendary conqueror of Mongolia, his life things would be shown in exhibition. The exhibition will continue for two months. Then it will go to United States where 200 rare features of Mongolian emperor would be shown to public. The other artefacts of Museum are of Tang Dynasty, which controlled the Silk Route trade in 9th century.
This museum has been built after four years efforts. According to the architect of Museum’s building, each room of the building has its slightly different shape and from outside geometry of the building, people are forced to think that the rooms are a ‘hand of welcome’ or a ‘lotus’. At the highest floor of building, permanent exhibitions of Artscience are for display. These have been divided into three galleries named Expression, Curiosity and Inspiration. But building mostly uses natural light for lightening its galleries. From the central part of four-story museum building, rainwater flows down to the land. The building is actually a display that creativity processes are similar of science and arts.
