Educational Historical and Cultural Trip to the Ancient Cities of Kazakhstan.
From 15 to 17 November, a historical and cultural educational trip was organised for first-year students to introduce them to Kazakhstan’s historical heritage. During the trip, students visited the ancient settlement of Otrar, the open-air museum “Köne Taraz,” and the mausoleums of Arystan Bab, Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, Aisha Bibi, and Karakhan.
Exploring these historical sites enabled students to deepen their understanding of the country’s cultural and spiritual heritage, the development of ancient cities, historical trade routes, craftsmanship, and past engineering achievements. Students were particularly impressed by the remains of ancient water supply and sewage systems, public bathhouses, and evidence of advanced craftsmanship.
The trip broadened students’ historical knowledge, encouraged interest in national heritage, and helped strengthen relationships among first-year students. The next stage of the course will involve a theatrical performance depicting a specific period in Kazakhstan’s history.
