The Abai Museum in Zhidebay was opened in 1945, immediately after the victory of our people in World War II, as a branch of the Semipalatinsk Abai Museum. The museum presents exhibits that are of great ethnographic interest, which will introduce you to the era of the legendary poet and musician Abai Kunanbaev. In the museum you will see the pen and inkwell with which the poet Abay wrote his poems, the dombra on which he played his melodies, and the poet's car. Of the poet's furniture, only Dilda's bed, inlaid with bone, has survived. In the 1930s, all the furniture was stolen or disappeared, and only this bed survived. It is said that the bed was still decorated with gold and diamonds, which also did not survive, presumably the bed was looted, diamonds and gold were stolen.
