International Intellectual and Puzzle Museum
International Intellectual and Puzzle Museum (Bayanzurkh District 13, Neighborhood 2, Peace Avenue 10, Ulan Bator) — the International Intellectual and Puzzle Museum was created by Mongolian inventor Tumen Ulzii, who is known for creating logic puzzles and games for Mongolian youths. Inside the museum, visitors can see thousands of games and puzzles that are traditional to Mongolia and its culture, including some invented by Ulzii himself. Guests can view and even play with Mongolian chess sets, traditional burr puzzles that vary from six pieces up to 350, and even a puzzle that offers a prize of $100,000 if a guest can solve it within a given timeframe. Certain items there resemble the famed 1980s American puzzle toy Rubik’s Cube.
