Almaty is my hometown

My hometown, former capital and biggest city in Kazakhstan. Almaty has unique architecture with old and new. Walk around in the city center, at the number of green parks, go to Kok-Tobe hill by cable car where you’ll find best view to the whole city. Enjoy good food and drinks in numerous cafe and restaurants. When you tired of the city, head to the mountains! Part of Tien-Shan mountains which is called Alatau mountains is just 15 minutes drive from the city. Try ice skiing at Medeu ice rink at evelatin of 1,691 m above sea level. Higher to the mountains the Shymbulak ski resort is located. In winter you may enjoy the skiing at elevation of 2,000-3,200 m above sea level. If you don’t ski, there are plenty of hiking paths to the mountains, where you’ll see outstanding beauties of the nature. For example, the Big Almaty Lake.
