A what3words Case Study
The Tourism Board of Ulaanbaatar faced a major challenge because many parts of the city have no street addresses, making it difficult for visitors to find places without asking for directions or relying on patchy mobile data. To help tourists explore the Mongolian capital more easily, the board worked with what3words and its 3 word addresses service.
what3words helped the Tourism Board of Ulaanbaatar create a city guide and public map with 3 word addresses for key locations, including hotels, supermarkets, pharmacies, hostels, and Ger campsites in rural areas. The result was a much simpler way for tourists to locate destinations and travel like a local, improving access to hard-to-find places across Ulaanbaatar and beyond.
