Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is a little-known photography jewel in Central Asia. This Central Asian country and former Soviet republic extend from the Caspian Sea in the west to the Altai Mountains at its eastern border with China and Russia. A land rich with unique landscapes, canyons, mountains and beaches, there is almost anything a photographer could hope for within its borders. Among photographers, it is likely best known for its capital, Astana. Opulent and modern, this fascinating city is home to some of the most stunning architecture in the world. But for the photographer willing to adventure outside the confines of the capital, they will discover a land of richness and variety that rivals any other photography destination. Did you know that Kazakhstan is the land of tulips? Here they grow naturally in the wild in numbers far beyond those in the Netherlands and other regions. It is also home to black sand beaches, stunning canyons and mountain ranges, and more waterfalls than you could count. Here at PIXEO, we have curated a few of the best photo spots for you to explore.
