Journey from the oasis of Khiva into the rugged heart of the Karakalpakstan desert for an extraordinary, full-day expedition that spans thousands of years of human history. This unique itinerary seamlessly blends the eerie mysteries of ancient religions with a jaw-dropping look at forbidden Soviet art. Traverse the shifting sands to stand on a 2,200-year-old Zoroastrian "Tower of Silence", decode centuries of myth at one of Central Asia’s most sacred necropolises, and step into the "Louvre in the Desert"—home to a legendary, multi-million dollar collection of banned avant-garde masterpieces.

Cần Quan Tâm
Make your first major stop at the dramatic Chilpik Dakhma, a striking circular fortress rising sharply above the desert plains. Walk up to this 2,000-year-old ritual site—once used by ancient Zoroastrians for sky burials—and take in panoramic views of the sweeping Amu Darya river basin.
State Museum of Art named after I.V. Savitsky
Next, arrive in the capital of Karakalpakstan to visit the Nukus Museum of Art. Known globally as the "Louvre of the Desert," it houses the world's second-largest collection of Russian avant-garde art—saved and hidden away from the Soviet regime by Igor Savitsky—alongside unique regional archaeological treasures.
