"Nauryz is a rich cultural heritage of our people. The word ‘Nauryz,’ derived from Persian, means 'new day,' signifying the equinox, the renewal of nature, and the continuity of generations. By the initiative of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, K.K. Tokayev, the holiday will be celebrated for ten days in Kazakhstan as part of Nauryznama. During the interactive excursion week at the Presidential Center, visitors will have the opportunity to explore publications at a themed book exhibition and participate in both general and thematic tours that introduce traditional Kazakh clothing and musical instruments," said Bakytzhan Temirbolat, Director of the Presidential Center of Kazakhstan.
The holiday exhibition features 80 exhibits from the Presidential Center of the Republic of Kazakhstan's museum, archival, and library collections.
It is worth noting that the exciting journey through time, as part of this event, allowed everyone to touch the origins of the national culture and understand the deep meaning of the Nauryz holiday.
