Beshbarmak, kazy, karta, sirne, kymyz, baursaks,
and tary - Kazakh national cuisine attracts foreign tourists with its richness
and diversity. Experts say that culinary traditions are becoming a new point of
attraction for those who love unique flavors. As a result, travelers are increasingly
choosing Kazakhstan to enjoy its gastronomic delights and experience the hospitality of the local
people. Bloggers and foreign media are also showing interest in Kazakh cuisine,
with many visiting cafes and restaurants in Astana, Almaty, and Shymkent.
«By reviving its national cuisine and
traditions, Kazakhstan is positioning itself as a destination for cultural
tourists, including gastronomic tourists. This shift has been highlighted by
global media, which have noted the emergence of neo-nomadic cuisine. Last year,
The New York Times featured several restaurants specializing in modern nomadic
cuisine and included them in its recommended destinations. This year, CNN
Travel has also recognized the potential of Kazakh gastronomy, sparking global
interest, including from media outlets in China,» noted Daniyel Serzhanuly, Deputy Chairman of the
Kazakh Tourism National Company.
