Not so long time ago Almaty was called "garden city", nowdays it probably "forest city" ;-). |
|
Original statue of Jambyl - famous kazak bard. |
|
President's palace. |
|
"Zodiac" fountain. |
|
The Akimat (City hall). When Almaty was the capital of Kazakstan this building was the parliament's house. |
|
"The Regent Ankara" - very "advanced" 5-stars hotel. One of local landmarks. |
|
A building with a blue dome is the Central Government Museum of Kazakhstan. A TV-tower on back stage is the world's highest tower built in a seismic zone. Theoretically it must sustain a 9-point earthquake. At present moment it was "tested" by 4-5 balled ones. |
