Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan, offers a mix of futuristic architecture and cultural landmarks, including the Bayterek Tower, Khan Shatyr shopping center, and the Hazrat Sultan Mosque. The local currency is the Kazakhstani tenge (KZT), and while prices are generally moderate compared to Western standards, costs can vary depending on the area. Summers are hot and dry, while winters are long, cold, and snowy, so packing appropriately is essential. English isn’t widely spoken, so having some basic Russian or Kazakh phrases can be helpful.
