MEET ASTANA
This (approximately) 1-million strong
city happens to be the capital of
Kazakhstan. It is also the
northernmost capital city of the
contemporary Islamic World.
Plus, Astana is the second coldest
capital in the world (surpassed only
by the Mongolian capital Ulan Batar).
Correct — Ottawa, Helsinki, Reykjavik,
Moscow… they all stand behind Nur-
Sultan City when it comes to weather.

WEATHER
NUR-SULTAN CITY CAN GET REALLY
WINDY ALL ROUND THE YEAR. THIS IS
PRIMARILY BECAUSE THE CITY IS
SITUATED RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF
NOWHERE, AND IS SURROUNDED BY
A STEPPE LANDSCAPE. THERE IS
OBVIOUSLY NO SEASIDE HERE, AND
THE CITY’S LEFT PART FINDS ITSELF
FULLY EXPOSED TO FREQUENT HIGH
WINDS.

A FUTURISTIC CITY
Astana is a planned city, built
with the intention of making it
the capital of the country. And
this “planning” is visible in
every aspect of the place. Ishim
River “cuts” the city in two
parts — the older Right Bank
and the newer, more planned,
Left Bank.

ENGLISH PLAYS A NEAR-NEGLIGIBLE ROLE IN
KAZAKHSTAN. IN THE WESTERN PART OF THE
EX-SOVIET WORLD, IT IS NOT A DAUNTING TASK
TO FIND ENGLISH SPEAKERS ON THE STREET.
BUT AS YOU TRAVEL EASTWARDS (TOWARDS
THE ‘STANS), YOU’D FIND YOURSELF RELYING
ALMOST ENTIRELY ON GOOGLE TRANSLATE.
For someone who does not speak Russian at all,
getting a hang of things is not easy in Astana.

RELIGION
Kazakhstan is a Muslim majority country.Many
Kazakhs are not trained to read Arabic, and as
such, they rely on translations of the Quran.
Attendance at masjids is stellar on Fridays.
Kazakhstan has been the homeland of nomads
in the past, and the country is proud of its
heritage. Islam, as such, can be found rooted
within the Kazakh identity. Being Kazakh,
practically, is like being a melting pot of cultures
— nomadic, Islamic, and a lot more. This is what
makes Kazakhstan both enigmatic and
impressive at the same time.
