Almaty: The Largest City in Central Asia


📍 Located at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, Almaty is a city that combines natural and cultural charm. I was immediately captivated by its unique style upon arrival.

🌳 Medeu Skating Rink is a paradise for sports enthusiasts! Standing on the rink, surrounded by snow-capped mountains, the sun shines on the ice, reflecting dazzling light. Skating while enjoying the magnificent snow-capped mountains is an unforgettable experience.

🏞️ Charyn Canyon is known as the "Grand Canyon of Kazakhstan." The rocks in the canyon take on various wonderful shapes, and under the sunlight, they are colorful. Walking along the canyon, you can feel the magic of nature, as if you are in a mysterious world.

🥘 Food is also a highlight of Almaty. The pilaf is soft and delicious, with large pieces of lamb that are tender and juicy. There are also various dairy products, such as yogurt balls and kumis, with unique flavors that are unforgettable.

🛍️ Don't forget to visit the Central Market, which is full of life. Colorful spices, fresh fruits, and exquisite handicrafts are all available. Here, you can bargain with the enthusiastic locals and experience the most authentic Almaty.

🎆 Almaty is a city full of surprises. It has the prosperity of a big city and the tranquility of nature. If you are tired of the same old tourist attractions, come here and start a different journey!
