10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Astana That You Shouldn't Miss

July 22, 2021 Matilde Konrad

Designated the capital city of Kazakhstan in the late 1990s, Astana boasts a landscape glittering with new architecture and construction projects as the government infrastructure continues to be built. Old and new quarters of the city are divided by the Ishim River, with older, Soviet era structures on the north side while the governmental quarter and monuments like the monolithic Bayerek Tower spread out to the south. The central Avenue of the Republic is a hub of entertainment and business.

The architecture of theatre is fantastic. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The artists of theatre are great professional. But there is something wrong with dress code.

City Park

Reviewed By Akili3625

Not just for fitness. The flower gardens and maze-like sidewalks are very nice for escaping the doldrums of the city. This open air park is beautiful in its expanse and placement just outside of the downtown area. If you need to get out and run, this is the best location in Nur-Sultan. One of the best fitness related parks I have been to.

National Museum of Kazakhstan

Reviewed By mrpiotrp - Lodz, Poland

Well organised, not particualrly expensive museum, with rich collection of Kasakh culture artefacts. Particularly important golden grave findings from different locations within the country. One precious thing - photos are allowed (not like in Almaty). And open till late in some days, For me the National museum is always a must in every country; I cannot understand why organised trips very often omit museums, even these most important...
