I recently visited Bayterek in Nur Sultan and was absolutely delighted! It is not only a symbol of the capital of Kazakhstan, but also a stunning observation deck with a breathtaking view of the city.
When I approached the tower, I was struck by its architecture — modern and elegant. There are interesting exhibitions inside, telling about the history and culture of Kazakhstan. It takes very little time to climb to the observation deck, and as soon as I got there, I had a stunning view of the city and the surrounding area.
I especially remember the moment when I was photographed holding my palm on a majestic golden ball, symbolizing the dreams and aspirations of Kazakhstanis. The atmosphere at the venue was very inspiring.
In general, Bayterek is a great place for tourists and locals. I recommend everyone who comes to Nur Sultan to visit this magnificent facility!

**Baiterek is a majestic tree of life in the heart of Kazakhstan**
Recently, I was lucky enough to visit one of the most famous sights of Kazakhstan — the Baiterek Tower. And I was very impressed!
The Bayterek Tower is a huge tree of life that symbolizes renewal and prosperity. It is located in the center of the capital of Kazakhstan, the city of Nur-Sultan, and is one of the most recognizable architectural landmarks of the country.
The tower reaches a height of 97 meters and consists of three levels. Each of them has an observation deck with stunning views of the city. The panorama looks especially impressive in the evening when the backlight is turned on.
On the first level of the tower there is a restaurant where you can taste dishes of national Kazakh cuisine. The second level is a museum where you can learn about the history and culture of Kazakhstan. The third level is the highest observation deck, offering stunning views of the city.
The Bayterek Tower is surrounded by a beautiful park where you can stroll and enjoy nature. There are also fountains, sculptures and other interesting objects.
I recommend visiting the Baiterek Tower to anyone who wants to learn more about Kazakhstan and its culture. It is a place where history meets modernity, and the beauty of nature is combined with the achievements of architecture.

We visited Baiterek, the symbol of Astana, and the impressions were the most vivid!
It is a very beautiful architectural structure, it looks especially impressive in the evening with lighting. Climbing to the observation deck is a special pleasure.: It offers a stunning view of the city from a height.
Everything is conveniently organized inside: the elevators work quickly, the staff is polite. On the upper level, you can not only admire the panorama, but also see the "golden palm print" of the first president, which has already become a tradition for many tourists.
If you are in Astana, Bayterek is definitely worth a visit, it is not just an attraction, but a real symbol of the city!

A beautiful symbol of Astana, definitely worth a visit at least once. The observation deck offers a great view of the city, especially in the evening. Convenient location — there are many attractions and cafes nearby.
On the downside, it's pretty modest inside. During rush hours, you can get into a long queue for the elevator. I would like more interactive elements and information.
Overall, it's a great place for city visitors and architecture enthusiasts.

The beauty is incredible! 97 meters. The glass dome. Three floors by elevator and three on foot through the Winter Garden. Some of the plants are real, some are artfully selected artificial. The "birds" are singing. You climb to the top, and the beauty takes your breath away. The city is in full view. Very beautiful. I don't remember the exact cost, it seems 1,300 or 1,800 tenge per guest. You need to roughly divide by 5 to get the cost in rubles. There is no tour, the guests are on their own, but perhaps, with such a beautiful view, this is not required. We visited on March 20 of this year. Angela.

Baiterek is a symbol of Astana and one of the most recognizable places in Kazakhstan. The majestic tower with its original architecture embodies the ancient legend of the Tree of Life and the golden egg of Samruk.
Visiting the observation deck is a mandatory part of the program. From the height there is a stunning view of the modern part of the city with its futuristic buildings and wide avenues. It is especially beautiful here at sunset, when the city is shining with lights.
An interesting detail is that inside the glass ball there is a palm print of the First President of Kazakhstan. Tourists are happy to put their hands on the symbolic relic.
The only drawback is that there are queues during the tourist season, but the wait is worth it. The atmosphere, views and legend make Bayterek an unforgettable place.

Baiterek is an impressive symbol of Astana and Kazakhstan. The ascent to the observation deck provides a breathtaking panoramic view of the city. The architecture of the building is unique and memorable at first glance. A visit to Bayterek is a mandatory item of the program for any tourist. I recommend taking the time to inspect both the outside and the inside.

I went to Baiterek in Astana, and I was impressed! This is not just a tower, but a whole symbol of the city, and indeed of the whole of Kazakhstan.
I rode the elevator to a height of 97 meters — it takes my breath away! The bird's—eye view of Astana is simply beautiful! Inside the ball on the upper level there is a bar and panoramic halls where you can relax and admire the views.
On the lower level there is a cafe, aquariums and a gallery — everything is very atmospheric. And there is also a composition with a palm print of Nursultan Nazarbayev — all tourists are photographed.
In general, Bayterek is a place worth visiting.

The symbol of Kazakhstan's independence in Astana. Futuristic view of the "Tree of Life" with a golden ball. Breathtaking panorama of the city from the observation deck. Symbolic height (97m), golden ball, palm print of the president. The center of gravity, the country's calling card. A must-visit in Astana

A very interesting place, an educational museum for the whole family. Everything fits very succinctly into the concept of urban architecture. There is not enough greenery yet, we are waiting for everything to grow up. The queues are not large, they run in groups, clean and cozy for those who stay below, the tent is occasionally watered with water.The only musical accompaniment sounds constantly a little annoying. There are vending machines with drinks.

I want to share my impressions of visiting one of the iconic places in Astana, which, despite its architectural advantages, left me with mixed feelings.
Firstly, it is worth noting that the architecture of Astana is really impressive. The city is famous for its modern buildings and unique architectural solutions, which are certainly worth seeing with your own eyes.
Secondly, it should be borne in mind that at lunchtime the number of tourists increases significantly. This leads to overcrowding of tourist sites and, as a result, to long queues. This is especially noticeable in such popular places as the president's impression, where the queue can stretch for several hours. Such excitement creates not only physical discomfort, but also emotional tension, which does not contribute to the full enjoyment of the views.
Thirdly, it is important to note that the organization of tourist flows in Astana leaves much to be desired. Despite the high level of infrastructure, queue management and the allocation of tourists to facilities requires improvement. This is especially true during peak hours, when the number of visitors reaches its maximum.

Baiterek is a truly impressive landmark in Kazakhstan! I really enjoyed climbing up to the observation deck and enjoying the beautiful view of the city of Nur Sultan. The panorama opens up to the whole neighborhood, and it's really impressive.
In order to get to the Bayterek observation deck, you can use public transport or a taxi, or even better, drive your own car. In any case, the road to the place will not be difficult, and the attraction itself deserves a visit.
I also really liked that there is a museum on the territory of Baiterek, where you can learn more about the history of Kazakhstan, and a restaurant where you can taste local dishes. This is a great place to walk and relax, and I will definitely come back here again!

BaitErEk is such an important monument in the center of Astana (Astana became the capital in 1997, therefore, the height of Baiterek is 97 m) and the number of rods around the glass ball is 101 - this is the number of nationalities living in Kazakhstan.
The main intrigue of Baiterek is the imprint of the "caring hand" of President Nazarbayev, queues are forming for her, Kazakhs are eager to touch and make a wish. It is said that the president himself drew the sketch of Baiterek on a napkin, which is now kept in the museum. Of course, it was great to climb to the very top of the ball in a gilded elevator and see the whole city "in the palm of your hand."
You will definitely visit Astana!

In the summer, together with the children, we visited Bayterek, there were a lot of people who wanted to, and by evening there was a huge queue. Large families were allowed through without waiting in line and for free! This is a very nice bonus)) of course, I will not forget to mention the polite staff :) I think it's worth visiting this place to see Astana from a bird's eye view!

The building itself looks interesting from the outside. But there's little point in buying a ticket and going upstairs for good photos, especially in the evening when the interior lighting creates catastrophic glare. There is also no outdoor area. There are few visitors. The employee inside, a girl, was friendly, told about the internal artifacts and even turned off the light inside for a couple of minutes. But the photos still turned out to be unsuccessful - dark glass, ambient light, and structural elements of the tower do not allow us to get acceptable photos.

Hello, traveler!
"Baiterek" in Astana is like meeting with something majestic and at the same time mysterious, like an urban "giant" who is always ready to take pictures with tourists! This 97-meter tower with a giant ball at the top has become a symbol of the capital of Kazakhstan, and, frankly, for good reason. Well, imagine: the tower symbolizes the tree of life, on top of which sits the golden egg of the mythical samruk (translated into modern language — a place for selfies).
Climbing up to the observation deck inside this "golden egg", you have a unique opportunity to see not only the magnificent panorama of the city, but also ... leave a handprint! Yes, the palm print of the first president of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, is located in the upper part. Put your hand in and feel involved in something great, even if you have plans to just snap an Instagram shot.
Bayterek is not just an architectural object, but a whole philosophy. When you look at it from below, the ball seems inaccessible, but as soon as you climb up, you realize that nothing is impossible! It is especially pleasant there at sunset, when the glass ball begins to shimmer with golden shades and the city turns into a shining ocean.
By the way, a separate life hack: if you will be there in winter, do not forget to warm up. Inside, of course, it is warm and cozy, but as soon as you go outside — well, this is Astana, the frosts here are such that Bayterek may seem like a warm house!
Total: Baiterek is not just a place for hiking, it is a symbol that calls everyone to strive for new heights and believe in their strength.

A landmark place in Astana. I recommend visiting Bayterek itself, and then walking along the pedestrian street to the embankment.
You can come both in the afternoon and in the evening. But if you want to go to Bayterek itself, then don't come too late, it will be closed.

The Baiterek Tower is one of the iconic structures of Astana (formerly Nur Sultan), which makes an indelible impression due to its unique design and symbolic significance. The tower is a modern architectural masterpiece inspired by ancient Kazakh legends and traditions.
Climbing to the observation deck offers a stunning view of the capital of Kazakhstan. It offers a panoramic view of modern buildings, green parks and wide avenues. The view from above is especially beautiful in the evening, when the lights turn on and the city lights up.
In addition to the picturesque view, the tower attracts with its interior decoration. The interior is made in high-tech style, decorated with modern materials and lighting. Artistically executed paintings and sculptures telling the story of the people of Kazakhstan deserve special attention.
One of the interesting elements of the tower is a glass ball, inside which is a golden capsule with the handprint of the country's first president, Nursultan Nazarbayev. This element symbolizes the unity of the nation and the hope for a bright future.
An information tour is provided for tourists, where they can learn more about the history and culture of Kazakhstan. The playground is also equipped with facilities for visitors, including cafes and souvenir shops.
Baiterek has become a symbol of the revival and development of modern culture in Kazakhstan. This is a must-visit place for all guests of the capital who want to touch the national identity and feel the spirit of modern Kazakhstan.

An interesting structure. But, like any landmark, there is a queue. At the very top, in the ball, there is a pedestal with the palm print of President Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan. You can put your palm up and make a wish. But it's also a queue, so it's better to decide on the desire in advance.
