Museum of Peace and Reconciliation

Dan Maltsev

I really enjoyed checking out the many different exhibits and learning a bit about Kazakh history. Exhibits span a wide selection of history, from prehistoric times all the way up to the modern period. In addition, the cafeteria downstairs is very cozy and serves warm, delicious Kazakh food and drinks.

Not a fan of museums but this one is very worthy of a visit. Interesting exhibits, also available in English. Museum does justice to modern and ancient history of the country, and everything in between. It has style. Good facilities. Location is well outside central Astana though.

This museum is offer a great details of information of the Kazakhstan history from the past ages. It collected, organized and displayed all the artifacts in orderly manner. Overall, I will give 10 out 10 points, for the museum. 

The museum is well designed and the building is accessible for challenging audiences like wheelchair persons and etc. It is also accessible with the public bus in the city. The staffs are very helpful and welcoming. 

There is a small coffeshop/canteen available at the ground floor for you to refresh yourself after walking and browsing the museum. 

They provided wonderful and delicious local cuisines. All the artifacts are labeled and detail explained in three languages, Kazakh language, Russian language and English language too.

A must visit place to everyone who come to the capital city. Suitable for family and individuals.

First I must admit I am not an art lover and do not know much about it. But this place left me speechless. It was not crowded because of COVID so you could enjoy in peace. Such a magnificent pieces of art and history of religion as well as Kazakhstan history. There is bar inside, toilets and a lot of places to rest. You must visit.
