Kazakhstan is an amazing country which many people call “a museum under the sky”. The country’s main landmark is steppe. It is situated in Middle Asia and is known for its numerous natural landmarks. Some of them are alpine meadows of Zailiyski Alatau, great landscapes of Canyon of Charyn River, legendary Burabai Lake. One of the most beautiful cities of the country is Almaty. It is located at the foot of the Zailiyski Alatau Mountains. The city impresses with amazing architectural ensembles which combine the elements of national style along with the newest designs. It is popular region of Tien Shan, which is famous for its versatile scenery. Not far from Almaty tourists can find Medeo and Chimbulak. These are two picturesque places with many attractions. One of them is a large highland skating-rink Medeo. There is also a huge dike to protect the city from landslides. As Kazakhstan lies at the crossroads of ancient civilizations, many ancient sites can be found there. For example, the mausoleum complex of Hodja Ahmed Yassaui, who was a prominent Turkic poet, the royal burial place in the Berel area, the Issyk burial mound, etc. One of the most interesting phenomena of Kazakhstan is the Balkhash Lake, which is situated at a height of 340 meters. Half of the lake is fresh and half is salty. It is surrounded by hills and desert pastures. Borovoe Lake Resort with its pine forests and fancy natural sculptures is another tourist attraction. Baikonur Cosmodrome became a historical place for the whole planet. The list of Kazakhstan sites can be rather long but I have tried to list the most impressive and famous ones.
