Almaty is one of the most beautiful cities in Central Asia. It is located at the northern ridge of the Tien Shan. Tourists in Almaty are attracted by high mountains.
One of the most popular places for recreation in Almaty is the park on Kok Tebe mountain, located at an altitude of 1130 m above sea level. There are many leisure options here: walking, riding attractions, sitting in a restaurant or cafe, visiting a zoo and a center for the rehabilitation of exotic animals. In clear weather, breathtaking views of Almaty and the Zailiyskiy Alatau ridge open from Kok-Tobe. You can climb the mountain by cable car with a length of 1620 m. The journey time will be only 6 minutes, and the impressions will be enough for several years to come.
The most recognizable sight of Almaty is the Kok Tobe TV tower, located on the mountain of the same name in the city center. The height of the building is 371. 5 m. Initially, it was planned to turn the Kok Tobe tower into a tourist site: an observation deck was organized at a height of 176 m, and zones for restaurants were allocated.
