KHAMZA MUSEUM

Slightly set back from the mausoleum, the Khamza Museum was built in 1989, in homage to the Uzbek poet of the beginning of the century, a great champion of national socialist realism. Khamzafut stoned Chakhimardan to death for his iconoclastic ideas. Many traces still testify to its contribution to the development of the city: construction of terraced gardens, an aqueduct... The museum also exhibits all kinds of tools, instruments, furniture, clothes recovered from the inhabitants of Chakhimardan and testifying to the daily life of the Uzbeks at the beginning of the century.
