The interior is adorned with artworks by prominent Kyrgyz artists, including Gapar Aitiev, Leonid Deymant, and Turgunbay Sadikov, further enhancing the center's prestige and reflecting the nation's artistic talent. The presence of sculptures of historical figures like Mahmud Kashgari and Yusuf Balasaguni, alongside depictions of Manaschi Sayakbay Karalayev, Suymonkul Chokmorov, and Chingiz Aitmatov, adds cultural depth and national pride.

The fact that both 'Yntymak Ordo' and 'Yrys Ordo' are located at the foot of the famous Boz-Bรถltรถk is not accidental, it is also a symbolic phenomenon.
