I saw many museums in Uzbekistan, this one got most of the things right. It was well maintained and there were some lovely displays to view. At the entrance you can scan a QR code through which you can download an audio guide which will provide you with some good information about the museum and its exhibits. I particularly liked the display of the traditional musical instruments and the QR codes next to them which you can scan to listen to an audio of the instrument being played. Such minor additions can really help enhance the experience of visitors. I paid 40,000 UZS through my google wallet tap and pay option.

Ticket foreigners - 25000 Lots of interesting items throughout the museum. Most of them are made with in the last 50 years. If you're looking for older artifacts this is probably not your place. We enjoyed seeing the national costumes and lots of the weaving work. You can scan the free Wi-Fi code on the wall to get connected. You can also scan the codes by the displays to learn more about them but we couldn't get it to work. The museum website came up but the pictures wouldn't show and no audio played. Worth an hour or two visit and it's in a pleasant neighborhood for a walk or a coffee nearby.

The museum is in an unassuming building and cost 25k Soms each to go in. We actually spent a couple of hours inside looking at the exhibitions on silk making, musical instruments, jewelry, embroidery and other similar crafts. Every exhibit had an English description which was really useful. It was interesting to see the transition, maybe 50 years ago, from hand woven and embroidered items to machine made and also the change from natural to artificial dyes. Once we'd finished we sat in the courtyard cafe and had a coffee and Deb bought a couple of bits in the little shop.

If you’re only visiting one museum in Tashkent, let the Museum of Applied Arts be your choice. Although the collection isn’t massive, it beautifully showcases Uzbekistan’s rich visual tradition. From wood carving and ceramics to jewelry and gold weaving, the museum houses over 4,000 exhibits related to decorative art in Uzbekistan. You’ll likely need no more than half an hour to appreciate everything this place has to offer. Arguably, it’s the best value solution for your time in the city.

the museum of applied arts in tashkent is in an old house from the czar's times. it is decorated in that impossible style of the russian empire, precious woods bridled with lapis blues, orpiment oranges, and gold foil... inside lies a collection of marvels, carpets brought from every corner of asia, sculptures from the near east, swords forged in persia, and fabrics weaves in china.... a little trove of treasures ig: @minusoneovertwelve
