A famous architect of the 20th century Le Corbusier wrote, “The yurt is one of the highest achievements of architecture. Due to its proportions commensurate with humans, it harmoniously fits into the landscape, serving as an example of the unity of nature and human habitation.” By creating this dwelling that was perfect in its functional qualities, our ancestors could see an image, embodying true similarity with the spiritual and moral values of human existence, in the yurt.

A small village in the sands awoke before dawn – the villagers were preparing to celebrate the spring holiday – Nowruz Bayram. Village children and young people were crowding near the large dune, where the swings were installed firmly. The silhouettes of women dressed in their best clothes were reflected in the glow of the fire under the large cauldrons – they were cooking a festive meal.
