A lucky Hungarian family will
receive a free trip to Mongolia due to their being the 50,000th people
to see an exhibit in Budapest on the life of Genghis Kahn.
Local university history student
Vince Kristof Farkas, along with his sister and mother, won the trip
when they entered the National Museum in Budapest on Tuesday.
On hand to award the trip was
Mongolian Ambassador in Budapest, Omboosuren Erdenechimeg, and Museum's
director Tibor Kovacs.
The exhibit opened in May and
displays over 500 artifacts from 20 European countries and Mongolia.
Of particular note are the
paintings, gold artifacts, Buddhist statues and writings from the 12th
century as Genghis Khan made his way across Europe.
