American city opens ‘City of Ulaanbaatar Park’ PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 22 May 2008
ImageThe city of Denver, USA has dedicated a city park in honor of Mongolia. 

City of Ulaanbaatar Park, planned for seven years, was officially opened this month. Ulaanbaatar became a sister city to Denver in 2001. 

Plans for the park include displaying a 15-foot Tulga sculpture by Mongolian artist Tsogo Mijid. The tulga is the hearth that was traditionally the center of Mongolian houses.  

Among officials at the opening ceremony was Deputy Chief of the Mongolian Mission, Mr. Odonjil Banzragch and Batbayar Lkhamjar, president of the Mongolian Community Association in Denver. 

According to officials, Denver has the largest Mongolian population among United States cities.
