Museum of Folk Musical Instruments

Take a chance to see and listen to Kazakh national musical instruments.

The building looks peculiar - it is made of wood and resembles a traditional Russian building. Inside it's decorated with national Kazakh ornaments. The exhibition consists of 40 types of Kazakh musical instruments, mainly dombra, kobyz, syldyrmak, surnay. There are also Russian, Dungan and Uygur musical instruments. A guide will be glad to tell you about the musicians of past eras and interesting facts from the history of musical art. You can visit the concerts, and listen to all these instruments live.

Music is a language that we all understand, so listening to national music is a great way to get to know nations and cultures. Visit the State Museum of Folk Musical Instruments and explore Kazakh art and culture.
