Description

The railway station district was formed on the site of railway workers in 1901-1903 during the construction of the Orenburg-Tashkent road. Simultaneously with the construction of the road, the station was being built. The capital buildings of the village belong to the period 1903-1905 . The square on the forecourt, created on the basis of a circular garden typical of the station of the early 20th c., has been redeveloped. The two-storey buildings of the polyclinic and the Palace of Culture of Railway Workers, built in the mid-50s, harmoniously fit into the existing buildings. The originally laid-out scale of planning and constructions have been preserved and still contribute to the artistic integrity of the perception of the complex of station buildings.
