Tourist Guide

Almaty is a frozen land in the winter. This cathedral is one of the main sites in the center of the city.

Took the cable car up to the Shymbulak ski area, most of the snow was gone already but it was a good day for a picnic in the grass up on the slopes.
Located in one of the many parks of the very green city Almaty you find this beautiful church. Almaty seems to me like a very pleasant city to live in, beautiful mountains and nature nearby and a very nice atmosphere.
