Adventure on the Roof of a High-Rise
If you want to admire Astana from a great height, it is better to do it from the roof of a skyscraper. However, there are no buildings equipped with an observation deck in the Kazakhstan capital. So you will have to solve the problem of getting access to the roof. If your relatives or acquaintances do not live in Astana, then finding access to the roof will be an adventure. You will be able to admire the panorama of the city when you climb to the roof of the high-rise. You will feel an increase in the level of adrenaline in your blood, realizing at what height you are. Don't forget to be careful and stay as far away from the edge of the roof as possible.![Another view of Downtown Astana Another view of Downtown Astana](../../common/img_cities_w300/astana--2334218-0.jpg)
