MY HOME TOWN: TALGAR
1 Talgar is in the Almaty region in the south of Kazakhstan. It's not
a big town. It's got a population of about 50,000.
2 I like Talgar because it's a friendly place and it is in a very pretty
area. There are some really old buildings like the old wooden
churches. It hasn't got many shops and cafés, but it is in beautiful
countryside. Talgar mountain is nearby and it's in the Almaty
Nature Reserve. My favourite place is by the river outside town
the mountains around the town are important for tourists too.
there are lots of walks you can go on with wonderful views
Talgar is about 25 km from Almaty. You can take the bus or the
train there. It takes about an hour.
