                For my 2 colleagues and me the tour was very interesting. We were in Kazakhstan for the first time, and our memories of Almaty will be eternal. First, we went to the skating rink Medeo, where we saw the famous Tien Shan spruce. We were impressed with her height and beauty. Rising higher, we reached the Shymbulak resort, where we boarded the funicular and drove higher. We were at an altitude of 3000 m and it was exciting. Despite the fact that the weather was cool, rain and a little snow in the mountains, we were still satisfied. We touched the snow, took a lot of photos and were shocked by such exotic things. This part of the tour will remain forever in our memory! It was incredible to feel the hot weather in the city and -10 degrees in the mountains. We saw 3 seasons for 2 hours: summer, autumn and winter. Returning to the city, we continued our tour and visited the main sights with a historical past, including the Republic Square and the park to them. 28 Guardsmen Panfilov. Kazakh history is very rich, from the Sak era to the independence of Kazakhstan. The peculiarity that we clearly noticed is that the Kazakhs remember all the events of their history. Although Kazakhstan is no longer part of the USSR, the years of the Second World War remain an important part of history. In conclusion, I liked Kazakhstan not only because of the useful scientific conference, but also because of the beautiful city, the unique history and the incredible nature.
