ALMATY

Head out into nature

Almaty lies close to beautiful nature areas. Take the cable car next to the Palace of the Republic to Kök-Töbe hill for a magnificent view over the city. And explore the woods, admire the bronze statue of the Beatles or ascend the climbing wall. Do you enjoy hiking? Then take a walk around the Big Almaty Lake. Winter sports fans will also find plenty to enjoy. Strap on your skis in the Chimbulak ski resort or skate at the outdoor Medeo ice rink. At night this becomes a real party! Almaty is not only perfect for a city trip but also makes a great starting point for a longer holiday in Kazakhstan. Expect to be surprised: book a flight to Almaty now!

Impressive monuments

A trip to Almaty isn’t complete without a visit to Panfilov Park. Stroll by the eternal flame, which burns in memory of the heroes who died fighting the Nazis in the Second World War. Then continue to the beautiful Zenkov Cathedral. This colourful Orthodox wooden church was built without the use of any nails. The flower gardens and the independence monument on the large Republic Square are also worth a visit. Would you like to learn more about the country’s history? Then visit the Central State Museum of Kazakhstan. Pick out a colourful traditional rug in one of the souvenir shops.
