Ata-Beyit, Memorial complex and cemetery in Chong-Tash, Kyrgyzstan

Ata-Beyit is a 2-hectare memorial complex 30 km south of Bishkek, near Chong-Tash. It contains a cemetery, a museum of 400 m², a sculptural composition, a memorial monument, and the brick kiln where 137 people were shot in November 1938. The complex was built on the initiative of President Askar Akayev and opened on 8 July 2000; its architect was K. Alykulov.

The site marks a location where hundreds were executed during the Stalinist purges between 1937 and 1940. Discovery of the remains in 1991 led to the creation of this memorial space.

The name Ata-Beyit means "Grave of the Fathers" in Kyrgyz; it was proposed by writer Chinghiz Aitmatov. A memorial plaque beside the museum lists the names of the executed, and the museum holds their personal belongings and archival files. On 8 November Kyrgyzstan marks the Day of Remembrance for the victims of the 1937–1938 repressions.

The terrain is hilly and requires comfortable footwear for exploration. Minibus 265 from central Bishkek reaches the area, with a walk needed to reach the entrance.

A 2016 monument honors the 1916 Urkun exodus with a horizontal sculpture featuring traditional yurt design elements. This artwork connects multiple historical moments within one location.
