The Artificial Lake Castle ({{langx|mn|Хиймэл нууран дахь цайз}}) was built in 1969, when the National Amusement Park was established in the centre of the Mongolian capital Ulaanbaatar. File:Castle UB.jpg

It is surrounded by an artificial lake and fortress walls in an eastern-Asian style. Inside the walls is a three-storey building. There are three watch towers. An Ethnographic Museum operated in the castle from its establishment until the mid-2000s. The castle has been rebuilt from 2010 assuming an appearance of a Western castle. The mock castle is part of an amusement complex together with the lake, and dock house.
