Atyrau History Museum
The modernised Atyrau History Museum has some interesting displays including a replica of the local ‘Golden Man' – a 2nd-century-BC Sarmatian chief with gold-plated tunic, found in 1999 – and a room on recently excavated Saraychik, an old trading centre 55km north of Atyrau, where several khans of the Golden Horde were buried.
