The tourist company “DWC” offers you a unique opportunity to visit the State Art Museum of Karakalpakstan, established in 1966 at the initiative of the talented Moscow artist Igor Vitalievich Savitsky (1915-1984). This museum is a true treasure of the Central Asian region and boasts about 100,000 exhibits covering four millennia of history.
The establishment of this museum is closely linked to the activities of the Khorezm Archaeological and Ethnographic Expedition, which made the remarkable discovery of the ancient Khorezmian civilization in the territories of Karakalpakstan, Khorezm, and Turkmenistan.
The museum houses ancient artifacts unearthed during excavations of ancient and medieval settlements, as well as unique Zoroastrian ossuaries with Aramaic inscriptions, terracotta cult figurines, ceramic and bronze items, which serve as evidence of the intersection of different eras, religions, and cultures.
Our company can organize jeep tours to the most interesting places in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan.
