Nukus, the capital of the Republic of Karakalpakstan, Uzbekistan, is situated on the southern coast of the Aral Sea and was once an important node on the ancient Silk Road. As the political, economic and cultural center of Karakalpakstan, Nukus attracts visitors with its unique desert oasis landscape and rich historical heritage. Despite its arid location, the nourishment of the Amu Darya River has made it a vibrant oasis. The city's most famous museum, the Nukus State Art Museum, houses a large collection of Soviet-era art and local artifacts and is an important window into Central Asian culture. Nukus is also a base for exploring the ecological changes of the Aral Sea, and its unique location and multicultural fusion make it a must-see destination in western Uzbekistan.
