You can buy any everyday items in Ulaanbaatar, but at a much higher price. High-quality clothing is hard to find; most of the clothing is inexpensive Korean or Chinese cotton shirts, jeans and shoes. Good coffee is also difficult to locate in UB. You can get a coffee maker, but Mongolians prefer to drink instant coffee. ↑ Top Will anyone have particular trouble finding clothes that fit?
