Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is the world's largest landlocked country, stretching from the Caspian steppe in the west to the Altai mountains in the east — a distance greater than continental Europe. The landscape shifts between salt flats, desert, grassland, and snowcapped peaks, with a sky so vast it becomes a defining feature of the place. Nomadic heritage runs deep, felt in the food, the architecture, and the rhythms of rural life.

About Kazakhstan

Overview

Situated in Central Asia, Kazakhstan borders Russia to the north, China to the east, and the Central Asian republics to the south. The capital is Astana, a planned city of modernist towers on the steppe; Almaty, the former capital, remains the cultural and commercial centre. Kazakh and Russian are both widely spoken, and the currency is the tenge.
