The Mausoleum of Genghis Khan, located in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China, is a cenotaph dedicated to the founder of the Mongol Empire. Despite its name, the mausoleum does not contain the actual remains of Genghis Khan, whose burial site remains a mystery. Instead, it serves as a cultural and historical memorial to honor the great conqueror. The complex features traditional Mongolian architecture, with a main hall, side halls, and a central pavilion that houses a statue of Genghis Khan.
