The Bogd Khaan Palace Museum comprises of two parts, which are the summer palace with seven temples and pagodas and the winter palace, a two story, white construction built in a European architectural style.
The Winter Palace of the Bogd Khaan is located in southern Ulan Bator, on the road to Zaisan. It is now a museum. The palace is the only one left from originally four residences of the eighth Jebtsundamba Khutughtu, who was later proclaimed Bogd Khaan, or emperor of Mongolia.
The Winter Palace, a few kilometers south of the Square on Chingisiin Orgon Choloo, is open daily in summer from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. In winter it is closed on Wednesday and Thursday. A little pamphlet, available at the entrance, gives a very brief explanation of the temples in English, and includes a handy map showing the temple locations
