Topraq-Kala is an ancient archaeological site in remote Karakalpakstan, Uzbekistan, best visited during spring or autumn to avoid extreme temperatures. Accessibility typically requires a 4x4 vehicle, often arranged as part of a guided tour from Nukus or Urgench, which is highly recommended due to the site's isolation and lack of on-site information. While the entrance fee is minimal (a few USD), transport costs dominate, making the overall cost variable. A typical visit to the ruins lasts 1-2 hours, but the full excursion, often combined with other Khorezm fortresses, can be a full day. Visitors should bring ample water, sun protection, and sturdy footwear as there are no facilities at the site.
