About this experience
Surrounded by emerald-blue mountains lies the capital of Kazakhstan. We will take a stroll around the city, discovering key locations that will tell us about different epochs in the history of Almaty. What was here before when the city was called Verny? When did it first become the capital, when did it lose this status, and when did it regain it? We will find answers to these questions among the architectural monuments!
