K.LN.
In Kazakhstan, there are two largest cities - the capital city of Astana, and Almaty, which is the "second" capital of the republic and has made a much greater contribution to its history. Having received two stamps of my country, I sincerely expected that the second one would be dedicated to Almaty, the most technically and culturally advanced city in the country (analogous to St. Petersburg for Russia). However, while Baiterek is justified as a symbol of the country, very few people know about the Nur-Astana building in Kazakhstan... It would have been more appropriate to depict:
  • the Golden Man against the backdrop of the mountains, the monument to which is located precisely in Almaty,
  • the Medeo, the highest mountain ice rink,
  • the Kazakhstan Hotel in the city center,
  • the Apple as the most vivid symbol of our city (all apples in the world originated from this region, and the city was named in honor of it).
