Security
Security conditions are satisfactory but there is an increase in petty crime, particularly in the capital, so you should maintain the usual precautions everywhere but most intensely in the capital, Ulan Bator, and tourist or compulsory tourist sites like airports, monasteries, museums, markets and public transport. The large market, often known as the "black market," has a large number of thieves. A similar situation arises during the Naadam celebrations (July 11, 12 and 13), where there is a large concentration of crowds.
It is not advisable to stroll overnight in the capital.
Keep a copy of the passport stored in a place other than the original.
