V. Savitsky State Museum of Art. The I.V.Savitsky State Museum of Art is located in Nukus, which is the best art collection in the Asian region, having the second largest and largest collection of Russian avant-garde works. The English newspaper The Guardian called the museum "one of the most beautiful museums in the world" (Amelia Gentleman "Savitsky's secret Hoard". The Guardian, January 1, 2001). The collection of the Nukus Museum is said to "shed light on the history of Russian art" and "gives a true picture of the artistic life of 1920-1930" (Prof. Hansen-Levet, J.K.Marcade). </p><p>The I.V.Savitsky State Museum of Arts of the Republic of Karakalpakstan traces the cultural segment from the III century BC to the present. There are objects of the material and artistic culture of ancient Khorezm, folk and applied art of the Karakalpaks, a small semi-nomadic ethnic group living in the north—west of Uzbekistan and having an ancient history and original culture. The department of fine arts focuses not only the national art school of Karakalpakstan, but also the works of the founders of the picturesque culture of Uzbekistan — a multinational team of artists who worked in Central Asia at the beginning of the 20th century. </p><p><b>The Museum of Local Lore of Karakalpakstan</b> </p><p>The Museum of Local Lore of Karakalpakstan in the city of Nukus is one of the oldest museums in Central Asia. The history of the museum dates back about 80 years, and his exhibitions are truly unique and interesting. </p><p>To date, the museum has more than 56 thousand exhibits, among which there are really valuable and rare ones, for example, the stuffed last Turanian tiger, now extinct. The exhibits are constantly replenished thanks to archaeological excavations, as well as cooperation with various universities and academies. </p> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:1960_CPA_2434.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/1960_CPA_2434.jpg/200px-1960_CPA_2434.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="126" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/1960_CPA_2434.jpg/300px-1960_CPA_2434.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/1960_CPA_2434.jpg/400px-1960_CPA_2434.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2019" data-file-height="1267" /></a><figcaption>Postage stamp of the USSR 1960 Nukus.

Nature halls are very interesting, which are especially popular with children and give an idea of the flora and fauna of the republic. The Department of Archaeology contains models of ancient settlements and objects found at excavations. An interesting exposition of folk craftsmen, with embroideries, woven carpets, jewelry and musical instruments. The traditional dwelling of the local population, the Karakalpak yurt, is also represented here. </p><p><b>Karakalpak State Museum named after Berdakh</b> </p><p>In 1997, in connection with the 170th anniversary of the great Karakalpak poet-thinker Berdakh, it was decided to create a museum named after him. The museum building was built in 1998 next to the Karakalpak State University. </p><p>The total area of the museum is 1.26 thousand m2. It is a three-storey building with one large and six small domes. The author is a well-known architect in the republic, winner of the Berdakh State Prize Orynbai Toreniyazov. </p><p>The museum is a treasure trove of the cultural heritage of the people, a mirror of history, which reflects the entire historical path traversed by the people from ancient times to the present day. The Berdakh Museum, justifying its vocation, decorates the city with its original architecture. </p><p>Studying the poet's work, Berdakh can be called the first historian of the Karakalpak people. His work "Shezhire" ("Genealogy") is truly a genealogy of an entire people (not only the Karakalpaks), as it contains information about the Turkic peoples as a whole. The poem contains the names of about 300 characters, historical figures who have made a significant contribution to the history of the people. Berdakh has poems dedicated to national heroes, such as "Amangeldi", "Ernazar Biy" and others; the images of these heroes are still preserved in the national memory.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In addition to his poetic gift, Berdakh also possessed the talent of bakhsa (a kind of musical art). He was famous for this not only among the Karakalpaks, but also among neighboring peoples: Uzbeks of Khorezm and Turkmens. </p><p>Taking into account the breadth of the poet's interests and the versatility of his work, the museum has expositions reflecting the history, ethnography and culture of the Karakalpaks. Of particular interest is the hall of ancient manuscripts, where written monuments in Arabic, Persian and Turkic languages are preserved to this day. It is also planned to organize special thematic halls of archeology, art and history. </p><p>It is planned that in the future the museum will become a center for the restoration, conservation and study of written monuments in Karakalpakstan and thereby assume a scientific and educational function. </p><p>The expositions also provide knowledge about the history of education and upbringing in Karakalpakstan, about spiritual educational institutions of the past and present (madrassas and mektebahs), about the first Soviet educational institutions, about the history of the formation of higher and secondary education in Karakalpakstan. </p><p>The Karakalpak State Musical Theatre named after Berdakh (formerly named after Stanislavsky) is located in Nukus. </p><p>There are monuments to Berdakh, Ulugbek, Azhiniyaz and others in the city. </p><p>There are archaeological sites in the vicinity of the city: Shylpyk — the Zoroastrian dakhma — and the necropolis of ancient Mizdakhkan. </p><p><b>Shylpyk</b> </p><p>The ring-shaped structure of Shylpyk is located on the highway 43 km from Nukus in the direction to the south (to Khiva, Samarkand, Tashkent), on top of a conical hill with a height of 35-40 m. </p><p>In plan, it has the shape of an open, slightly flattened circle with a diameter of 65-79 m. The walls reach a height of 15 m. </p><p>Shylpyk was erected in the II—IV centuries as a Zoroastrian dakhma. In the IX—XI centuries, it was used by local residents of the district as a signal tower. </p><p><b>Tok-kala (Darsan)</b> </p><p>The settlement of Tok-kala (Darsan) is located 14 km west of Nukus, on a small natural hill of Toktau. The total area is 8 hectares. The monument consists of three parts — antique, early medieval and burial ground. </p><p>The most recent study was conducted in 1998 during the educational field archaeological practice of the Department of History of the NGPI named after Azhiniyaza. The topography of the settlement was studied, and an 18 m2 room was excavated in the early medieval part. A human burial was opened, and bones were found inside a small ceramic molded vessel of the humcha type. It was covered with a brick, possibly taken from the ancient wall of the settlement. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Science_and_education,_medicine,_culture_and_sports"><span id="Science_and_education.2C_medicine.2C_culture_and_sports"></span>Science and education, medicine, culture and sports</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Nukus&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Science and education, medicine, culture and sports"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The city is home to the Karakalpak branch of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, several research institutes (including the Institute of History, Archeology and Ethnography, a branch of the Uzbek Scientific Research Institute of Pedagogical Sciences named after T.
