Almaty City Almaty is the largest financial, economic and cultural city of Kazakhstan. Almaty was the capital of Kazakhstan from 1929 to 1997. It is one of the most beautiful cities in Kazakhcstan with a population of of 1,348,500 (as of 1 September 2008), which represents 9% of the population of the country, situated in the foothills of the ZailiskyAlatau Mountains. It accommodates numerous business centers, theaters, museums, art galleries, exhibition halls and countless modern entertainment complexes. The name “Almaty” derives from the Kazakh word for “apple” (alma), by which the surrounding region is rich; the region that is thought to be the ancestral home of the apple, and the wild Malussieversii, is considered a likely candidate for the ancestor of the modern domestic apple.From here you can view a splendid panorama of the mountain ranges and the city. It is especially beautiful at night when Almaty is illuminated by glimmering lights. The cableway soars over the old part of the city, buried in gardens called Compote by locals. This area is so called because of the fruit names of streets located here: Cherry, Pear, Grape, etc. While riding the cablecar up the hill you can watch the lifestyle of local people almost as in an ethnographic museum. The Kok-Tyube hillside is topped by a350 m TV tower. It’s built in a seismically active area.The new 2030 General Plan of Almaty was developed in 1998 and aims at forming ecologically safe, secure and socially comfortable living conditions. The main objective is to promote Almaty’s image as a garden-city. One of the components of the General Plan is to continue multi-stored and individual construction, reorganize industrial territories, improve transport infrastructure and launch Almaty Metro (Almaty Subway). At the same time, some officials and Almaty city dwellers actively opposed metropolitan construction in seismically active zone. Some scientists said that in case of strong earthquake, the city will immediately fall under ground. However, constructors state that metropolitan is constructed taking in consideration Almaty city seismic situation. In fact, metropolitan construction started in 1989, hardly any of the project initiators could suppose that construction time would have lasted for 20 years. The total length of Almaty metropolitan is planned to be equal to 45 kilometers.Almaty’s biggest recreational area (admission 25T; 24hr), at the eastern end of Gogol, is still known as Gorky Park. It has lakes, funfair rides, an Aquapark (Jun-Sep), a zoo, and several cafés, and shashlyk stands.This large and popular rectangle of greenery, first laid out in the in the 1870, is focused on the candy-col our end Zenkov Cathedral. The park is named for the Panfilov Herous, commemorated at the fearsome war memorial. This represents the 28 soldiers of an Almaty infantry unit who died fighting off 50 Nazi tanks in a village outside Moskow in 1941. An eternal flame commemorating the fallen of 1941-45 (WWII), flickers in front of the giant black monument of soldiers.
