| Ulaanbaatar | I want to know of a good place for archery? Posted: Thu December 11, 2003 03:21 AM UTC
I hear Mongolians are very fond of archery as a sport. I would like to know if Americans can either spectate or participate in archery either in the capitol or in other parts of Mongolia.

Hi! Have not been to Mongolia, but the Naadam festival of archery, wrestling and horseback riding (Mongolian "manly sports") is in July. The dates vary depending on the town, but in UB it is around July 11. Not sure if you can participate, but you can definitely spectate! If you want to find an archery connection that would probably be a good place to do it.
At other times of year, perhaps you could ask around wherever you are. If it is part of the major national festival there must be round the year opportunities to practice archery! Hope that helps a little... Liz

I notice you are from Texas! I have family in Houston. I live just a few hours away from you, in Arkansas. And I'm also about to go to Mongolia... Not for archery, but horseback riding.
