We will visit the main tourist places and main attractions of the country, plunging into two completely different dimensions: first into the urban world of human genius, centuries-old culture, oriental cuisine and distinctive hospitality, then into the world of unique nature and endless landscapes far from civilization. We will cross the former bottom of the Aral Sea, where there are no roads, but only directions; we will pass through the Ustyurt plateau with its alien chinks; take a look at the gigantic salt marsh depression Barsakelmes and Lake Sudochye, where thousands of birds nest, including pink flamingos, white swans and pelicans. And we will meet the most stunning sunrise on the shores of the Aral Sea, which is not only alive, but also incredibly beautiful!
