It is a very atmospheric place, I recommend visiting it. The guide is a very competent and pleasant woman, she scooped up a lot of information. A ticket with a guide costs 2000 tenge, the only thing for a taxi there and back was 15 thousand, but it was worth it.

The scale of the museum and the interior are impressive. The museum staff perfectly preserved the atmosphere of that time: from bright classrooms to creepy basements. I was accompanied by a museum guide, who perfectly complemented everything I saw. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in history!

The Museum of Memory of Victims of Political Repression in the village of Dolinka is a place that everyone should visit. I am happy to bring my children here, because "a nation that does not know its past has no future." The tour was amazing, thanks to the guide Yuri for the detailed answers to all questions. The museum offers many original exhibits, but there is no infrastructure like a cafe. I hope the local authorities will pay attention to this hidden diamond.

It is very interesting and informative. You will really learn the history of our Kazakhstan. I didn't know that the Gulag occupied such a huge area the size of France. Very good guides.

Perhaps a place that everyone should visit. I am happy to visit such museums myself and started taking children, because I agree with the quote:
"People who do not know their past have no future." M.V.Lomonosov
Attention! Before you go, check the opening hours.
Of course, the setting is not for the faint of heart, the guide is a wonderful girl, answers all questions, even stupid ones.
The museum itself is amazing, with many original exhibits. But there is absolutely no infrastructure in the form of cafes and other things. The road leaves much to be desired. I think that the Karaganda Akimat needs to pay attention to this hidden diamond, and attract attention and funding to this place as much as possible.

Excellent museum, very professionally decorated, good guides. The subject is scary - Karlag, but the presentation of the material is excellent, there were a lot of people. Foreigners come, there are tours in 3 languages.

An interesting museum, the tour is quite dynamic, which is very good, you didn't have to stand in one place for a long time and listen to long stories. We learned a lot of interesting facts. I also liked the guide, the time flew by unnoticed.
The only thing is that it is not very convenient to get to the museum. We took the bus to the village, not the final stop, there are taxi drivers at the bus stop and you can get to the museum, but there are a lot of people on the bus even on weekdays. They did not risk waiting for Ostobus in the heat, they simply got to Karaganda by taxi.

It's a masterpiece. Everything is realistic. After visiting the museum, there is anxiety in my soul, but at the same time gratitude for the world now. I participated in the museum night a couple of times. When living people were put in the place of sculptures, so to speak. It's like it's happening here and now. So scary, mesmerizing. I advise everyone who has not been to the museum yet to visit.

The museum is a must-visit. One of a kind. It is a pity that it is not developing. It is necessary to increase the exposition, offer new sightseeing and educational programs, improve the quality of doll making, there is not enough shop with souvenirs, books, printed products.

Many facts are distorted and politicized by anti-Russia. What the guide says often differs from the photos presented in the exhibitions. For a complete picture, the crematorium furnaces would also be installed.

It turned out to be a very useful tour. It's good that they remind us of the history of the country. Exhibits, old documents, and newspapers are clearly and widely presented. The music emphasizes the oppressive atmosphere.

You can get to 121 from the station, be sure to ask the driver for the exit stop, then you will need to catch a taxi. There are very nice people who will just take you, well, some can take 500-1000 tenge. The tour is conducted in 3 languages. The cost is 2000 tenge, well, there are some discounts there, you can find out at the checkout. The museum itself has 3 floors, including the basement. Each has its own vibe and a sea of impressions. BE SURE TO VISIT IF POSSIBLE

The museum is so beautiful that it takes you back to the time of repression, as if you were really in a concentration camp. Everything is very realistic, the guide tells everything in detail, in detail.

Interesting, and at the same time creepy. Especially the basement. It shows in all its glory how and what happened in those days. It takes more for the soul of cots and toys. It's impossible to explain this to children now. I recommend you to visit.

Good tour service, helpful staff. But the theme and exposition of the museum is not very simple, there is a reflection of pain and suffering all around, after visiting for a long time it was hard on my soul.

It's a very cool museum, some installations have been removed, but still the impression the museum also makes is very authentic and believable. As soon as you enter the museum, you get the feeling that you have fallen into the past and are in the NKVD, not in the museum

A gorgeous museum. Kazakhstanis are doing well to preserve history, even if it is so cruel. I never would have thought that such a thing was possible. I definitely recommend visiting the museum to those who visit these parts.

A very interesting museum, I advise you, there are excellent guides, one minus, if you need a tour of the museum in English, then you need to discuss this tour with a telephone in advance, otherwise you will have to listen to toltko in two languages Kazakh and Russian

There is a lot of true information. It is presented both in paper and visual information. The prisoners' cells, their life, their way of life, their work for the benefit of the Motherland. It's scary from such a life..... But this is our story.
