We were with my family in February, the ticket prices are reasonable, the interior is clean, the exhibits are interesting, the caretakers in the halls are very pleasant. Unfortunately, she did not ask for a name, but one of them said that if you put your ear to the cannon, you can hear the hum of military aircraft. And indeed!
She took a great picture of us under the dome, thank you very much!!!
The only drawback is that the museum is not adapted for disabled visitors - there are no ramps, we were with the baby, we had to leave the stroller at the wardrobe and carry the child in our arms. I wish you to correct this nuance, and get better and better 🥰

We really liked the museum! Classic, in the best traditions, the Central State Museum is a solid, with a rich exposition, located in a huge beautiful building, with silence and coolness in the halls, with the smell of history, with carefully preserved and detailed descriptions of exhibits telling about the history of the Kazakh land from the most ancient times, about the history of the formation of the nation, about education and The development of the state is exactly what one of the oldest and largest museums in Central Asia should be. Interesting, informative and diverse expositions - paleontological, archaeological, historical and ethnographic, anthropological, historical, artistic. We took individual excursions in the ethnography hall and in the "golden" hall. In the ethnography hall, the guide gave us an interesting and very informative tour. It is difficult to navigate in this hall without a guide - the hall is large, a huge number of exhibits from various epochs and spheres of life of the Kazakh people. Unfortunately, we do not know the name of our wonderful guide - thank him very much! In addition to the main historical information, he told such a lot of interesting details - about the symbolic meanings of the elements of national patterns, about the deep meaning of national women's jewelry, musical instruments, household items and clothing items, about the sacred meaning of the elements of the yurt, about the types and purpose of carpets and chests, about the peculiarities of the mentality and worldview of the Kazakh people, everything and not list it! In the small "golden" hall, where the stunning beauty and elegance of gold jewelry are stored, the most ancient of which the Kazakh land has preserved since 4-5 centuries BC, there was also a very interesting excursion with such amazing, simply fantastic stories about the circumstances of the discovery of gold treasures!
The museum has a small cafe and a souvenir shop. In front of the entrance to the museum there is a cozy square with rose beds and benches in the shade of trees.
A wonderful place! I definitely recommend you to visit! And I wish the museum development and prosperity!
