Students of the Faculty of International Relations of the University of World Economy and Diplomacy showed great interest in the expositions of the rich cultural heritage of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented in the State Museum of Art. The opening of this exhibition was timed to the state visit of the President of Kazakhstan Kasym-Zhomart Tokayev to Tashkent. The exhibition features about 130 unique and original objects of the national culture of the Kazakh people. But the most significant iconic exhibit is the “Golden Man” (“Altyn Adam”), called by art critics “The Kazakh Tutankhamun”. This archaeological find was discovered in 1969 near Almaty, the burial was completely untouched, a young warrior of 17-18 years old from the dynasty of the Saka rulers was buried there. How to inform sources, on the young man "more than four thousand gold items were found that were sewn on leather clothes of red color literally from head to toe." This collection of the Issyk Mound dates back to VII-III centuries BC.
