Pedestrian tour: The Right Embankment is a Starting Point of Astana

The multi-faced capital, divided into the right and the left embankment by the Yesil (Ishim) River, preserves remains of the past: pre-revolutionary houses of the merchants of First Guild as well as the representative buildings of the Virgin Land Campaign period, all these are the image of the right embankment of the capital;

During the tour you will go through the route, beginning from the Museum of Saken Seifullin (a pioneer of modern Kazakh literature, poet and writer, and national activist), based on an old merchant’s house and ending with the old Orthodox Church built in 1854. Merchants’ houses preserving century-old history and soviet gigantic constructions, proficiently enter the image of the capital – these are the area of the old centre of Nur-Sultan, where the new vision for the capital of independent Kazakhstan was set.
