Kazakhstan, lying at the heart of Central Asia on the
Great Silk Road, is a massive country spanning 2,717,300 square kilometers
from the Caspian Sea to Western China; an area the size of the whole
of western Europe! Yet, with a population of just 15 million, mostly
living in the cities, this is a land of vast open and unpeopled spaces.
Great stone and sand deserts, and wide grassy steeps occupy the majority
of the country, interspersed with such great inland lakes as Lake
Balkhash, Aral and Caspian Sea. In dramatic contrast, along its south
- eastern borders stand the mighty Tien Shan Mountains, the 1,000-mile
spine of Central Asia and northern extension of the Himalaya which
waters flower-filled alpine meadows, lush forests of Tien Shan Spruce
and lowland Turanga, and feeds the great lakes and inland deltas to
the north.
