Monument to Chingunjav


With a fierce expression on his face, the statue of the mounted Chingunjav looks set to trample you under its hooves. Chingunjav was one of the two major leaders of the 1755–1756 rebellion in Outer Mongolia; though he ultimately failed, he is nevertheless recognised as a fighter for Mongolia's independence from the Manchu when the country was under the rule of the Qing Dynasty.
