Mongolia started the project of lighting up the Sukhbaatar Square with LED lights on this Jun 22th. The work was commissioned by Sentino, a value added reseller of Philips Lighting products for Mongolia. This project cost 3.5 billion MNT in total.

In the first stage, the surrounding area of Sukhbaatar Square, Sukhbaatar Statue, Government Palace, Ulaanbaatar City Governor’s Office, State Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet, Central Cultural Palace (CCP), and Mongolian Children’s Palace are all decorated by these LED lights.

Sentino will fully install the lights around the Government Palace and turn them on all at the same time in the evening of the “Mongolia in Deel” festival that will take place on July 10.

An additional 11 lights will be placed around the CCP, and they will also decorate the facade of the State Academic Theatre of Drama and State Central Library from September 1 this year.

With these LED lights, the daunting problem of Ulaanbaatar in spending so much power on lights around the buildings is now solved.
