ULAN BATOR, Aug. 6 (Xinhua\/APP): Mongolia kicked off an annual cultural and sports festival near the country’s capital on Saturday to promote its pandemic-hit tourism by attracting more domestic and foreign tourists.<\/p>\n

Two unique events, namely ritual Tsam mask dance, and naadam or “the three games of men” featuring horse racing, traditional wrestling and archery, will be organized during the sixth edition of the annual festival, according to the tourism department of the Mongolian capital Ulan Bator.<\/p>\n
