Oblysta 12 mynnan asa tarihy jәne mәdeny eskertkishter bar. Qoryqtyng qaramaghynda memleketting qorghauyna alynghan 139 nysan bar. Olardyng ishinen 20-y respublikalyq manyzgha iye. 12000 mynnan asa eskertkishter ghylymy túrghydan zerttelgen jәne óndelgen. Olar Kaspiy jaghalauyndaghy halyqtardyng mәdeny jәne diny damuynyng barlyq kezenderin beyneleydi.

Eng qaster tútylatyn jәne halyq kóp keletin Manghystau eskertkishterining biri – Oghylandydaghy (Ontýstik Ýstirt) Beket-Ata meshiti. Meshit Shopan-Atadan 100 shaqyrym jerde ornalasqan. Meshitting eng týbindegi saghanada Beket-Ata ózi jerlengen. Beket Myrzaghúlúly – qazaq halqynyng filosofy jәne aghartushysy.
