A similar historical and cultural event was held today, December 20, in high school named after M. Abenova and school № 17 named after Ataturk Turkestan. The exhibition was attended by more than 100 students and teachers.

Led by the Human Development Department of the city, Talgat Orazov and Baiseit Sultan, junior researchers of the museum-reserve, conducted a tour of the exhibition for history teachers and students from each school in the city.
