Yurta kazaka
Soviet Legacy and Beyond: The Historical Monuments of Kazakhstan
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Resembling a spaceship or traditional Kazakh yurt, Yurta Kazaka is Kazakhstan's first circus recognized as a cultural and historical monument of local significance. The oval lines encircling the dome transform into a small round shape, inspired by the yurt's design, reflecting Soviet Modernism's unique architectural style rooted in the country's history.
WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS PLACE
Each city's circus is unique, making comparisons intriguing. In Almaty, the circus illuminates in the evening, resembling a tent-like shape. Adjacent attractions include fountains, an amusement park, a theater, and a metro station. Whether visiting in winter for New Year's Eve or in summer, both seasons offer a delightful experience.
THIS PLACE IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE
The circus holds a special place in the hearts of Kazakh citizens, evoking childhood memories and cultural pride. In April 2017, an exhibition hall showcasing the history of Kazakh State Circus was inaugurated, preserving the rich heritage of circus art in Kazakhstan. Its inclusion in Almaty's State List of Historical and Cultural Monuments of Local Significance in 2010 underscores its monumental status.
SPECIAL TIPS
Enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of Yurta Kazaka during your visit, as it promises a wonderful experience for all ages.
