Climate 🌡
The climate in Muinak is a little bit humid and, accordingly, not particularly rainy. In winter, it can be very windy and cold, because due to climatic changes that have occurred in recent years, the city has actually turned into the desert. Summer is hot and arid, but sometimes in the evening, the typical coolness of the region comes down and sometimes even makes you put on a jacket.

Souvenirs in Muynak can be found mainly in the city centre. For the most part, these are works of sewing art, such as skullcaps, wallets, bags and scarves with national patterns. Large-scale preparations are underway to launch a souvenir production with a marine theme.
