Mongolian Bökh wrestlers showcase spirit of the steppe

Mongolian Bökh, honored as a Chinese intangible cultural heritage, is a traditional wrestling sport that has been passed down for thousands of years. Wrestlers wear a distinctive open-front leather jacket known as the “zodog” and a colorful “jangaa” around their necks to symbolize honor. More than a contest of physical prowess, Bökh embodies the courage and spirit of the steppe warriors.
