For centuries, the yurt (nomadic tent) was a home for many Central Asian peoples such as Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, Turkmens, Uzbeks and Karakalpaks. The city of Chimbay in Karakalpakstan is located 60 kilometers from Nukus, the very place of the Karakalpak people where the ancient tradition of making yurts has been preserved. In the workshop we can see how the process of assembling a yurt and manufacturing separate parts takes place.
“Uyshi” - master of yurt making
Willow is the best wood for making a yurt
The yurt is assem bled in a certain order and it consists of numerous details
Installation of the yurt starts with the door, the next comes the yurt frame
Then masters put a roof, which has a conical shape
Crowns the top of the yurt the circle - it is called “shanarak”
