This is not the actual tomb of Genghis Khan, as he was buried in an unmarked grave in a secret location. Rather, it is a temple dedicated to Genghis Khan, and a major place of worship for the ethnic Mongols.
The Mausoleum of Genghis Khan is a mausoleum dedicated to Genghis Khan, where he is worshipped as ancestor, dynastic founder, and deity. The mausoleum is better called the Lord's Enclosure, the traditional name among the Mongols, as it has never truly contained the Khan's body. It is the main centre of the worship of Genghis Khan, a growing practice in the Mongolian shamanism of both Inner Mongolia, where the mausoleum is located, and Mongolia.
