[quote]Minister of Culture, Sport and Tourism (MCST) Ts.Oyungerel and Chief of the State Property Committee (SPC) D.Tsogtbaatar officially reported that the former Lenin Memorial Museum building has been successfully transferred back to state ownership after many trials in primary, appeals and supreme court on Thursday.
It is the only building originally built for museum operation in Mongolia and the much-awaited Central Dinosaur Museum will open there on June 1, now that the ownership issues have been settled.
The MCST and SPC have been trying to take back the former Lenin Memorial Museum from the Mongolian People’s Party (MPP) through a series of court trials over the last year.
The MPP postponed trials 11 times.

I thought Mongolia is nothing but an empty desert over there? I didn't know there's a city there.

Someone said this same thing last year and was responded to with a long post about how mongolia is Asia's fastest growing economy and posted a lot of pretty pictures

I'll go if there's parking for my horse and I can bring my hunting eagle.
