You will see stands, pictures and other relic items which will give you broad information about the place itself, the people who used to live there, their lifestyles. Also, you will get a chance to see wall drawings of ancient people. Such wall drawings open a type of window to their day-to-day life. Scenes of hunting, gathering plants, dancing etc. You will also see an interesting stone called "Gavaldash" which makes a music-like sound when hit by smaller stone.
After visiting Gobustan museum, you will move further to see mud volcanoes. These are the same as volcanoes but mud flowing from them, instead of lava.
