Begin your journey to Moynak, a once-thriving port city on the shores of the Aral Sea. Today, it stands as a symbol of one of the largest environmental disasters of the 20th century.

Start by exploring the famous “ship cemetery,” where rusty fishing vessels lie among the sands of the former seabed. Capture photos of this haunting yet photogenic site, a poignant reminder of the city's past.

Learn about the causes of the Aral Sea's drying up and its impact on the climate, public health, and the region's economy. Hear a detailed account of the city's transformation and the lives of local residents before and after the environmental disaster.

Visit the local museum, which features archival photographs, documents, ship models, and exhibits dedicated to the history of fishing and the vanished sea.

Finally, see the unique landscape of the Aralkum Desert, formed on the dried-up seabed. Walk through an area where waves lapped just a few decades ago, experiencing the stark beauty of this new desert.
