Nur-Sultan at a Glance
About Nur-Sultan
Nur-Sultan, the vibrant capital of Kazakhstan, is an unmissable destination for its unique blend of traditional and modern architecture. The stunning Bayterek Tower, a 105-metre-high observation deck, offers breathtaking views of the city and is a standout attraction. Travelers love the local tradition of 'Bread and Salt', where guests are welcomed with a warm loaf of bread and a pinch of salt, symbolizing friendship and hospitality.
The best time to visit Nur-Sultan is between May and September, when the weather is warm and sunny. For first-timers, we recommend taking a taxi from the airport, as public transportation can be limited, and the city's grid system can be confusing to navigate at first.
