Erdene Zuu Monastery Karakorum

Erdene Zuu has seen quite a bit of history since 1586, and went through various stages itself. At times it went through neglect, other times it went through great revivals and prosperity. During Mongolia’s Stalinist repression period (1937-1939), the monastery went through a particularly hard time. It then reopened once again in 1965. However, it was permitted to reopen not as a place of worship, but only as a museum.
But as I visited the place two times, they do worshipping and pray in front of the Buddha image.
