Streets squares and districts to visit Aralsk

It was here, in Aralsk and Moynaq, that the Russian Revolution was saved. As famine struck Russia, Lenin mobilized dozens of trains and urged the Aral fishermen to increase their production. International aid, which Lenin eventually accepted, also had a lot to do with it, but the Aralsk railway station has preferred to remember this glorious episode in local history through a fresco in the purest Soviet realist style. A must-see.
