According to itypeusa, Kazakhstan is a country in Central Asia and the world’s largest landlocked country. It is bordered by Russia, China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and the Caspian Sea. Kazakhstan has a population of 18 million people with a diverse ethnic mix of Kazakhs, Russians and other ethnic minorities. The capital city of Kazakhstan is Astana and it is the second largest city in the country with over 1 million inhabitants. The official language of Kazakhstan is Kazakh although Russian is spoken by many people as well. The economy of Kazakhstan has grown significantly since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991 and it now has one of the strongest economies in Central Asia. The main industries are oil, gas, coal and uranium mining as well as agriculture and manufacturing. In addition to this, tourism has also become an important part of Kazakhstan’s economy with many people visiting its natural beauty such as lakes, mountains and deserts. Kazakhstan also has a rich cultural heritage with music, dance and art that have been passed down through generations for centuries. There are many cultural events held throughout the year such as Nauryz which marks the start of spring; Yrlyk which celebrates harvest time; Ak-Beshim which celebrates independence day; Shymkent which marks national unity day; Tengri-Enei which celebrates youth day; and Nauryz Meyrami which marks Navrus (the first month in Spring). These traditional festivals are celebrated throughout Kazakhstan by all its citizens regardless of their ethnicity or religion. Kazakhstan is located in the Northern Hemisphere and lies in the same time zone as the Central Asian region. Kazakhstan is on Kazakhstan Time (KZT), which is six hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This means that when it is 12 pm UTC, it is 6 pm in Kazakhstan. This time zone applies to all of the country, including Astana and Almaty. During Daylight Savings Time, KZT becomes Kazakhstan Summer Time (KST), which is five hours ahead of UTC. In addition to this, some parts of Kazakhstan also observe an unofficial time zone called Ust-Kamenogorsk Standard Time (UKST). UKST is five hours ahead of UTC, while KST is four hours ahead of UTC. These unofficial time zones are observed by some businesses and government offices in certain parts of Kazakhstan. For example, many banks will open at 10 am UKST instead of 6 pm KST during Daylight Savings Time. The use of these unofficial time zones can be confusing for visitors to the country who are not familiar with them. See ebizdir for Kazakhstan Economical Facts.
