Naadaam

During July, Mongolians celebrate Naadam which means "holiday" but its their National Holiday.
Naadam is a 3-4 day long sports competition. Wrestling, Horse Racing and Archery are the 3 manly sports that take place during the events. Women can compete in archery.

Naadam in UB is most popular and televised but there are smaller Naadams all over the country.

Equipment: If your in a soum for naadam, and you meet someone, it might be possible to wrestle :)
