The project “Museum from Home” aims to help children and young people to spend their time fruitfully using their smart devices, such as mobile phone and laptop in this time of global pandemic and to promote national cultural and historical artifacts to the public with the help of technological advance.

Within the project, four museums in Ulaanbaatar city, namely, Mongolian Theater Museum, the Zanabazar Museum of Fine Arts, Astropark and Ulaanbaatar city Museum are being presented virtually at the project’s Facebook page and UB.Life website. The museums are offering virtual and podcast tours into their special halls, most interesting exhibition items and their facts.
