In Mongolia the principles of preservation of historical monuments were formulated in 1924. In 1970 an act was passed on the protection of cultural property. In 1973 the Ateliers for Conservation of Cultural Property, with about 300 persons employed, was established in the Ministry of Culture. In the field of historical monument protection, there are many problems in Mongolia that require general solutions. The shortage of highly skilled specialists, deficiencies in the scientific research facilities, in equipment and materials, have all been the cause why many necessary preservation measures have not been taken up to date. There are many historical objects that call for preservation intervention. These are the stone statues found all over the country, as well as wooden structures and structures made of stone, clay, burnt and unburnt brick. The situation could be considerably improved through the aid of conservators from other countries. The protection of historical monuments can be aided through the development of tourism, which has been quite small so far. There are plans for the incorporation of the Orkhon Valley with the old capital of Karakorum into the tourist sphere. The profits coming from tourism could be assigned for the preservation of historical objects. For this purpose, however, the help of qualified conservators of other countries is needed.
