Pickled snacks you had is a traditional food of local Korean diaspora. And Lagman is a traditional Dungan and Uyghur food, so it has lots of Chinese influence. Almaty is almost as diverse as Big UK cities. People love Baikonur station because it’s kinda styalized to look like space station, that’s why it’s so plain. I personally like Moscow station, And Mukhtar Auezov station, one is super deep, and another is a homage to Moscow. Hope you will enjoy your stay.
We absolutely LOVE lagman! So yummy! I think we personally preferred Almaty to many UK cities we have been to, it's such a cool place. Interesting about Baikonur station based on a space station and quite cool. Mukhtar Auezov station was our favourite (we visit this one on the next vlog) It's super impressive design and so grand. Thank you for watching and thanks for the interesting info 😄
Every station's name and design have their meaning. For example, the first one was Zhibek Zholy, which in Kazakh means Silk Road. And you saw some illustrations of it on the walls.
Thank you for telling us the reason for it, we didn't realise this! Makes a bit more sense now. Our favourite station is the Auezov Theatre station (we visit in our most recent vlog) very grand!
Wish you good luck both of you Ash and Dan, You have given me very good memories of this country as I have been to Kazakhstan, Please try to go to Uzbekistan too, and other central Asian countries as well, obviously, if you can. Mind you Dan you are looking very good in your Beared style, I will try to copy your Beared style.
Thank you! ☺️ ah that’s good to hear! We do have a few more of the central Asian countries to visit after Kazakhstan so we will show these also. Haha thank you 🧔♂️
It local korean salats. Korean people was deported to Kazakhstan many years ago. Kazakhstan people help for all nation who was deported to Kazakhstan. In Kazakhstan more than 130 nation, but for foreign they are all kazakh
The first salads you tried are local Korean cuisine. And as for calamari ones it was a beef stomach😁. I’m Korean who raised and born in Kazakhstan, so our traditional Korean food is completely different than South Korean one so that’s why you didn’t noticed. Next time if you come to Kazakhstan I’d love to show you the prettiest and tastiest places😁
Oh wow! We had no clue that it was beef stomach, thank you for telling us 😊 we haven’t visited South Korea yet so we don’t really know much about their cuisine but thank you for the info! 😄❤️ thank you that would be nice
I like that you researched information on the Cathedral before visiting .Also, just a fun fact its an Orthodox Cathedral. I dont think u have mentioned it.
Hey guys, welcome to my hometown! Baikonur subway station is the only one that styled in a cosmic theme, I guess you know why. The others are related to a different cultural aspects like the Silk Road, kazakh famous literature, philosophers etc. Best regards
Thanks for the info 😄 Yes we found it super interesting and they were very impressive! At the time we didn’t realise what Baikonur was based on however now it makes sense 👍
Ciao, my husband Italian was so shocked because he knew all the names of marble stones he sayd they are so expensive and security then ride cost nothing he's mind was blown awaY the most shocking thing for him😂
I've been following you like the eye of God followed Caine across the desert. So you better watch it. you two. Just kidding. Awesome. vlog. Enjoyed it. I must visit this place. at least. for tasting some horse meat. I wonder if this huge. metro station could double. as a shelter of some kind, In the communist era, like for example. from a nuclear blast.
Horse meat is most delicious. Each Kazakh family eat minimum one horse meat. To winter we prepar meat, horse, cow and sheep. Kazakhstan like meat, most horse. You eat kazi.
Вот куда идут те народные бюджетные деньги на туризм. Можно подумать американцы толпами поедут, смешно... Могли бы с Россиянами работать, сами спилили сук на котором сидели. Еще одни поклонники карго культа.(вера в богатого дядю) Никто из европы и америки не будет путешествовать в кз, менталитет другой. Сша бор.а.т снимает. Европа будет кататься тай.
