Kazakhstan

One of the world’s biggest countries, Kazakhstan is a patchwork of old and new culture. Futuristic cities and architecture illuminate the urban parts whilst colourful temples and mausoleums tell a story of ancient religions and a rich culture. Green valleys, Emerald lakes, snow-capped mountains, undulating sand dunes and rock canyons, Kazakhstan has a landscape just as diverse as its history.
