The Hall of Law
Justice under the Great Yassa — where every crime had its measure and every citizen stood equal before the law of the steppe.
Justice of the Steppe
The Hall of Law brings the Great Yassa to life — the legal code that held together the largest empire in history. From property rights to capital crimes, the Yassa was applied equally to khan and commoner alike.
Witness a historical reenactment of the famous ‘wheel of the wagon’ sentencing and understand how Mongol jurisprudence influenced legal systems across Asia and Europe.
“An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward. So when life is dragging you back with difficulty, it means it is going to launch you into something great.”
— Chinggis Khaan
