In awe of Astana
... 8211; well, across the 12 lane highway you risk life and limb crossing – is the Kazakh Eli (Land of Kazakhs) column. It is 91m tall (’91 being the year of Kazakhstan’s independence), made of white marble and surrounded by ostentatious fountains. At the column base is a sculpture of President Nazarbayev.
