3.00Not much to enjoy. The horse show is not worth. The room was good and spacious but. Bad House keeping. The Turkies was not clean. There were no drinking water and tea, cup and glasses. All I needed to request. Staffs are very polite and helpful

5.00A simple car ride to the mountain region to a Yert village with the very capable Mirana. The snack in the Yert with details of Kazakh life for families and the chance to ask questions of their life was beautiful. The family dancing all together having fun was magical. The horse riding culture, Wrestling on horse back catching the bride and riding a Kazakh horse up close and personnel was fabulous, all in a snow capped mountain setting. Don’t expect polished tourist trashy events, but true from the heart with their children proud of their beautiful movement and strong practical environment friendly living. Blown away.
