Today, we went to the ancient Blacksmith museum with our group leadership of our intern Sabina Sharipovna. At first out teacher inspected our homeworks . After we entered the museum. The museum was very wonderful and filled of ancient things.

The Blacksmith History Forge Museum is a short walk north of the Toqi Telpak Furushon Bazaar on Khakikat Street. The museum is located in the Kulyuta karavansarai which was built in the 16th century. Admission is free, and it is a rare treat to see a working blacksmith. Photos  can be taken and you can stroll through the workshop to view finished goods and the tools of the blacksmith. The most impressive area is the urn shaped hearth with white handles, which had a fire inside.

The Blacksmith was working on a knife, and using his hammer to straighten it on the anvil. The sound of the hammer on the anvil and the smoky atmosphere made the shop feel as if it was transported back into ancient times. There were quite a few finished product hanging on the walls to view. We spent 15 minutes here and tried to stay away from the work area of the black smith whilst enjoying the experience. If you continue walking north on exiting the museum, several shops on the right have beautiful knives and metal craft.

The museum was opened in 1992, and is the only museum of this type in Uzbekistan. This is a must see as you are walking through the old city.

At the Blacksmith museum had a lot of different 

tools , historical instruments such as hammer, sword, poniards and others. Moreover we saw the pictures of  the famous smiths of the world.  

Soon We inquired some datum about skillful smiths which we didn't know before. Their works wondered us .  Existing of tools at that time so far  surprised me .😃🙂 The Blacksmith museum is rich old tools and instruments. We liked there . I think, we will come here again with course-mates or our friends ☺️😊
