This is no coincidence, given Kazakhstan's rich cultural heritage, comparable to its natural diversity. This mosaic interweaves "centuries-old nomadic traditions, Islamic influence and traces of the Soviet era." (Euronews Travel)

But it is not only the capital, with its diverse architecture, that attracts the attention of tourists. The national cuisine of Kazakhstan is a still unexplored attraction. It reflects the spirit of hospitality and the nomadic traditions of the people. According to Euronews Travel, Kazakh cuisine is currently undergoing a period of modernization, combining traditional recipes with modern innovations.

The gastronomic sphere of Kazakhstan is experiencing a kind of renaissance, where classic dishes acquire new shades through the use of new ingredients and culinary techniques. This process not only preserves authenticity, but also gives the dishes a new taste and charm.

International recognition (the prestigious 50 Best Discovery rating) received by Kazakhstani restaurants confirms the potential of gastronomic tourism in the country. It is important to note that major cities such as Almaty and Astana are becoming increasingly prominent in the global tourism community thanks to their cuisine and variety of cultural experiences. And, The New York Times recently included Almaty for the first time in its prestigious list of 52 places to visit in 2024.

Thus, Kazakhstan, with its special culinary customs and variety of culinary tastes, could become a new world center for gastronomic tourism, notes Euronews Travel.
