Museum of Applied Arts

I saw many museums in Uzbekistan, this one got most of the things right. It was well maintained and there were some lovely displays to view. At the entrance you can scan a QR code through which you can download an audio guide which will provide you with some good information about the museum and its exhibits. I particularly liked the display of the traditional musical instruments and the QR codes next to them which you can scan to listen to an audio of the instrument being played. Such minor additions can really help enhance the experience of visitors. I paid 40,000 UZS through my google wallet tap and pay option.

Nice quiet location in a private residential district. Another beautiful building with intricate design. There's many handicrafts, teacups and saucers, plates, vases, tables and artworks can be found here. There's also persimmon trees in the compound. This place is not that big.

Very interesting museum! It displays a beautiful collection of decorative art from Uzbekistan, such as wood carving, ceramics, weaving, embroidery, some samples of mass production etc. For carpet and textile lovers, it is a must-visit in Tashkent.

Wonderful - definitely worth a visit! The artefacts and exhibits inside are extremely beautiful & well-maintained. It's such a delight to see all the traditional Uzbek / Central Asian designs and art-forms. Every inch of the museum is photogenic & worthy of appreciation. The ticket price is reasonable. The museum is located on the interiors of a quaint neighbourhood. Safe and sound. Please do visit here.

Honestly this museum is THE one to see in Tashkent if you’re strapped for time. I actually went to it last and it’s so beautiful I wish I had came here first! It’s hard to believe the stunning architectural detail only dates to the late 19th century. It’s a shame the handicrafts, jewellery and textiles inside only date to the late 19th or 20th century, but they’re still BEAUTIFUL. 25k som for foreigners and pics allowed.

Pretty small museum. Beautiful decorations on the facade but there's very little to see inside. It takes less the half an hour to see everything.

Applied arts refer to the application of design and aesthetics to objects of practical/ everyday use. This includes disciplines like fashion design, interior design, and decorative arts such as ceramics, furniture, and jewelry design. They have jewelry, carpets, clothing, interior design and accessories.

Nice, quiet museum. It's applied arts, so don't expect it to be about artifacts. Many of the pieces are modern, but they are made in the traditional crafting style. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that it's a bit difficult to navigate. The building itself is very interesting!
