What you can expect

  • The “Great Sea” and its catastrophe. You will witness a place known as the ‘Cemetery of Ships’ for good reason.
    Route: Khiva - Nukus - Mizdakhan complex – Kungrad – Muynak (lunch) - Ship Cemetery - Nukus – Khiva
    Departure from Khiva (Main Gates - Ata Darwaza).
    Duration: ±8.30 h drive with stops to Muynak (370 km).
    Description:

    • Chilpik Fortress: One of the rare monuments of Central Asia that has been preserved from the pre-Arab period. One of the only monuments where Zoroastrians performed their funeral rites leaving the bodies of the dead here.
    • Mizdakhan Complex: Known as the City of the Dead, this site is home to many mausoleums. In addition, many traditions from the pre-Islamic period can still be seen here.
    • Muynak: A national cuisine lunch with a Karakalpak family can be booked on request. In this city, you can briefly experience local life and meet former fishermen.
    • Ships Cemetery: Muynak was once one of the most popular and important cities in Uzbekistan. It is now known by the sadder name ‘Cemetery of Ships,’ a striking example of the consequences of human influence on nature.
    • Aral Sea Museum: A place where you can get a full picture of the fauna and flora of the former sea.
      Departure from Muynak to Khiva (or to Nukus, or to Urgench hotel / airport / railway station)
