The embankment of the Ishim River divides the city into two parts: the right and left banks. The Capital’s Park is located on the embankment of the Ishim River. Astana Central Park — the capital’s park, formerly known as Astana Park, is the real pride of the city.

The capital’s Park of Culture and Recreation is located in the heart of the capital of Kazakhstan, covering an area of 104 hectares. On the park’s territory there is a summer amphitheater- an outdoor concert venue where various events (concerts, championships, competitions and other entertainment) are held.Also, walking along the embankment, you can see the new pedestrian bridge “Atyrau”. It resembles a huge miracle fish, whose scales shimmer in the sun.
