of eight media representatives from different countries,
including from
Italy, Spain, Japan, Egypt, Brazil, Russia, Azerbaijan, and the Kyrgyz Republic. This year, more than 80 applications from
30 countries were submitted, which
demonstrates the growing interest of the foreign press in Kazakhstan,
organizers say. The winners

of Astana,
Almaty, and the Mangystau region, get acquainted with the country’s attractions and its cultural and historical
heritage, as well as attend the upcoming fifth World Nomad Games. Notably, Jibek Joly TV channel became
