diversity, the blend of nomadic cultural heritage with modern achievements,
and, of course, its unique spirit of hospitality. Naresh Shandili, a tourist
from India, believes that Kazakhstan offers fascinating attractions and
unforgettable experiences for everyone. Visiting Almaty for the second time, he
is captivated by the city’s unique atmosphere.
«We love Almaty. It is a good
place and people are very nice, also friendly people. And I will come again
with my family. This time I came with my friends. And they all enjoy it here,» Shandili
