Other Events
Naadam
Throughout the summer months of June, July and August, many herder families in Mongolia host a summer festival called Naadam. In addition, the Genghis Khan Retreat holds several of those small Naadams throughout the summer, usually inviting some 30 families from the neighborhood. Horseracing is the main attraction of a Naadam, followed by wrestling, bow and arrow shooting and, of course, a polo match. The start and finish of the horse race will always be on the grounds of the Genghis Khan Retreat.
The Genghis Khan Polo Cup
In the third week of August, the Genghis Khan Retreat hosts a week-long polo tournament, mixing local and international players. Throughout the summer, there are many small polo tournaments.
Young Riders of the world
During the summer, the Genghis Khan Retreat runs a Summer Training Camp for Mongol children, mostly from herder’s families. The children receive polo training but are also introduced to other sports, to art, music, and English.
