What to Expect
The Ewenki Museum, also known as the Ewenki Ethnic Museum, is a cultural institution dedicated to the Ewenks (also spelled Ewenks, Ewenke or Evenki), an Indigenous community from the northeast part of Inner Mongolia, as well as Russia and Mongolia. They speak a Tungusic language and their traditional livelihoods involve reindeer herding, hunting and fishing.
The Ewenki Museum aims to preserve and showcase the unique culture, traditions, history and way of life of the Ewenki people. Exhibits focus on various artefacts, displays and interactive elements that provide insights into the Ewenki nomadic lifestyle, traditional practices, clothing, tools and spiritual beliefs.
Visitors can learn about the language, folklore, music and dance, as well as the challenges and changes faced by the Ewenki community over time.
