As you can see there's a draw from all sorts of different types of architecture that span from ancient Greece to contemporary. Astana will always make you smile due to their interesting architecture. :D
I went down to what they call the Golden Ring which is in Southern Kazakhstan and it's where some of the World's earliest cities had been. There's all sorts of things to see like old caravan routes, such as the Great Silk Road, and ancient settlements. Southern Kazakhstan also has the world famous space port, Baikonur. There has been talk of adding an entertainment complex full with modern hotels, 'cosmic cafes,' mini-mission control center to simulate spacecraft launch, a planetarium, a museum of space development, restaurants and it's very own shopping network.
That's what Baikonur looks like now but they apparently already have plans for how it will all be laid out.
In addition to all of that Kazhakhstan has the second lowest land are on our planet, the Karaghiye Depression which is about 132 meters below sea level.
