In the expanses of beautiful and exotic Kazakhstan every traveler is surrounded by a huge number of remarkable objects, both natural and man-made. On a relatively small territory of the country the mountains adjoin the deserts, picturesque lakes with alpine meadows, spacious steppes with dense groves. Here is a completely separate amazing world with a unique nature and stunning landscapes.

Among the natural attractions of Kazakhstan stands the Great Steppe, impregnated with a history of millennia and ancient legends, stretching for millions of kilometers. In the middle of the desert, the "flaming cliffs" of Kiin-Kerish, created under the influence of time, water and wind, striking to the depths of their souls with their bright and piercing beauty, are colorfully displayed.

Not far from the border with China, the enchanting Charyn Canyon stretched for a hundred and fifty kilometers with the "Valley of Castles", which is quite deservedly compared to the American Grand Canyon.

Ashen grove, pyramid-like ancient mountains of Aktau, the mysterious sighing lake Kok-kol and the magic lake Markakol, Lake Issyk, Lake Balkhash, mixed fresh and salt water and threatening to disappear forever, the rocks of Zhety-Oguz ("The Seven Bulls"), the Sak burial mounds , Atybaiidyn-Aktasu, Karabulak gorge, Khan-Tengri peak - all these are fragments of the wonderful and stunningly beautiful natural mosaic of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The modern capital of Kazakhstan is Astana, a city of young and colorful, energetic and modern, a city that decorates unusual architectural structures, whose bold design gives Astana the features of the city of the future. Astana is rich in interesting monuments of history and architecture.

The symbol of the city is the Baiterek monument, opened in 2002, but rooted in the ancient Kazakh legends. This fantastic tower, almost 100 meters high, has become very symbolic for the whole country and reminds people of the eternal confrontation between good and evil.

In 2006, to the radiant appearance of Astana, another admirable building was added - the Palace of Peace and Harmony, executed in the form of a regular pyramid. Inside the pyramid are the concert-opera hall, conference halls, exhibition rooms, greenhouses and much more.

Astana is beautiful and with its mosques, among which is the elegant snow-white Nur-Astana and the largest in all Central Asia, Khazret Sultan, resembling a beautiful eastern palace.

Standing near the wall of the Zailiyskiy Alatau Mountains, which give the city a special charm, Almaty attracts tourists from all over the world with its majestic beauty and easily sinks into the soul..In the city where the capital of Kazakhstan once was, there are also many interesting sights .Among them - Park im .28 Panfilov guardsmen, in the center of which stands the colorful St. Ascension (Zenkovsky) cathedral, which has been preserved since the time of the tsarist era .The Holy Ascension Cathedral is not only one of the most beautiful examples of wooden architecture, but also an important historical and architectural monument of Kazakhstan, which is a breathtakingly colorful spectacle..

In Almaty, there is also the famous sports complex "Medeo" - the highest mountain stadium in the world, intended for winter sports. To see the city from an exciting height in all its glory, you can climb the Kok-Tobe mountain by cable car or by air tram. And at the foot of the mountain stands one of the highest in the world (of course, above sea level) "Kok-Tobe" TV tower.

And, of course, it is impossible to visit Kazakhstan and not to visit the oldest and largest in the world Baikonur cosmodrome, from which the first artificial Earth satellite was launched and the first manned flight into space.
