Historical Summary (In Mongolian only):
Дундговь аймаг Баянжаргалан сум. Мужийн жас Баянжаргалан сумын төвөөс баруун зүгт 15 км-т хуучин Энгэр усны бригадын хойд талд Мужийн жас хэмээх цагийн хуралтай жасаа хурал байжээ. Нэг модон дугантай энэ хуралд намрын дунд сарын адгаар мөн өвлийн эхэн сарын сүүлчээр хошуу хийдээс лам нар гарч ирж цагийн хурал хурдаг, бусад үед тахилч лам л үлдэж дуганыг сахиж байдаг түр цагийн хурал байсан байна. Дуганы ойролцоо жасын мал нутаглаж байсан тухай мэдээ байхгүй. Мужийн жас хэмээх энэ хурлын тухай түүхийн холбогдох баримт судалгааны бүтээлүүдэд дурдагдаагүй байна. /Баянжаргалан сумын төв өндөр настан Маньбадар, өндөр настан Чимэддовдон нартай хийсэн ярилцлагаас 2007.07.29/

Site status at the time of survey :
Two places were found by the surveyors, which were said to be the site of Mujiin jas. However, neither of the places could be accepted as the site of a temple.
No trace of digging on either site.
Description of the two sites:
Both of them are on the hillside, near Khökh ovoo of Delger uul. They are close to each other.
Place 1 is a square-shaped formation crowded by stones with two smaller formations on the north. A stone heap stands in the middle. As the complex is situated in a valley where a river used to be flow it cannot be considered as a site of a temple. A smaller square-shaped formation is situated a bit higher up in front of the ovoo.
Place 2 is a round formation arranged by stones. A yurt could have been put inside. There are some stone heaps nearby. No further information. No signs of monastic life. Maybe a third place near these two also existed once.
