We will admire the unbelievable vast landscapes of the Great Steppes – the cradle of the nomadic civilization.
We will get to know the peculiarities of the nomadic way of life, who and how invented the Steppe Calendar and what are the main values of the Kazakh shepherds.
We will speak about the religions of The Great Steppe and how dogs were transformed from the sacred animals to the devil servants.
We will find out about the main product of local farmers of the USSR time.
At the end of our journey through the steppes we will reach the kingdom of canyons that created mysterious castles and towers, home for the witches and magic red wolfs, – the heroes of Charyn canyon legends that kept in fear local people for centuries.
