National Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan

It’s a great big museum, the current expositions are amazing
There’s a hidden gem on the seventh floor that should not be missed.
You may walk in and see the first floor without paying but once you want to go tot be second floor you need a ticket. So make sure you pay.
It’s a very friendly museum. It has braille, audio, any type of aids for disabilities.
Audio guides QR codes, everything.
The souvenir shop is a huge no for me because it’s pricey.

Beautiful museum, very reasonably priced. Free to school kids during the holiday breaks. Definitely a must if you are interested in local history and culture. They have both modern and ancient exhibits that showcase the development of human settlements in the area, and the archeological finds are amazing if you are interested in that sort of thing. We're looking forward to visiting this museum again.

This is a beautiful modern building with several exhibitions inside representing Kazakhstan's ancestry, history and modern times. There are also golden treasures excavated from Golden Horde's burial hills in Kazakh steppe. Additionally there is an exhibition of Kazakh art (paintings, graphics ans sculpture).

A must visit if you're ever in Astana. They have a massive collection of ancient artifacts and a beautiful fine arts collection too. The structure is one beautiful piece as well.

Great place with excellent views of the city n also the information was very helpful for one to understand about Kazakhstan.....a must visit place in Astana

A fantastic museum, presenting the history of a great nation, from prehistoric to recent times. The ticket is less than 1.5€, and an extra of around 2€ for the Golden Hall. A must visit when in Kazakhstan! There's also a small cafe, and a small restaurant inside.

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. It also display well preserved art works and drawing that have important cultural significant. They are some new contemporary art works too. 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 ( kashan porridge). 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. Please take note, that this museum is closed on Monday.

Grand museum with a lot of information and exhibits - well thought out, not just text upon text.
Also a lot of attentive staff.
We did not visit the golden chamber but we were short on time and our local friend said it's probably not worthy in our case.
The Samruk and it's egg in the foyer is stunning, and if you come at the right time it will also flap it's wings.
We came in October, and it was quite empty

I was quite impressed by the museum exhibits. There are many interesting things to see from dinosaurs to the limited edition modern coins. The art gallery on the top floor has a nice collection of paintings by Kazakh artists.
In addition, the museum has a great app that contains information about some of the exhibits with text or audio guides.
There is no mobile network reception inside the museum, but there is an open wife available so you can use the app to enhance the visit to the museum, although the museum wi-fi was quite slow ((
In addition, prepare to walk a lot cause you have 3 levels to explore, and I wish they have more chairs to rest while walking around the exhibits
But overall I highly recommend visiting this place, especially in the morning

Must visit! Golden Man something special. Nice expositions, a lot of artefacts, very well done. Plan to spend all long day!

Amazing museum!
The entrance is included in your city pass. Just have to pay a little difference if you want to visit the gold expo.
A lot of history in this museum and talk about all the fist kazah people in achieving things internationally.

I had a great opportunity to see in history of this beautiful country... Well organized museum 🙂

Nice museum, very interesting exposition of Golden warrior. Entrance fee for adult 1700 and 300 tenge for a child. It has 7 stores, and each has some interesting exhibitions. You are allowed to take pictures on the phone, and if you want to take your camera inside you have to pay extra 500 tenge

Very interesting place, a lot of history, probably could spend couple days there if you are a fan of it

Absolutely excellent. They appear to be gradually moving exhibits from other city museums to this overarching museum. A wide range of topics and exhibits.

Great historical collection of Sarmat and Saka cultures

Nice museum. The exhibitions include ancient and medieval history, Hall of Astana, ethnography, nomadic times and modern history as well. You need to pay an extra 1000T fit the Hall of Gold but I found it interesting. Lots of gold jewellery and decorated items are on display and the audio guide is included. Generally there are not much detailed descriptions which made it less informative so I would recommend the audio guide.

Super well organized museum. Very big, with a lot of items. Everything very beautiful. They offer for free a place to leave your jacket and also backpack. The restrooms are very clean.

You need at least 3-4 hours for see everything. Museum is huge. You can see all history of Turkish people. Entrance fee for tourists around 5 USD.

Most of the exhibits were in English which was nice since it's the only language I speak. It was a very nice museum that had many things ranging from history of Kazakhstan and even a modern art area. I spent 4 hours here with my girlfriend but I could of easily spent more here. It would of been nice to have a guided tour but other than that it was a very nice museum
