“101 zážitkov z Kazachstanu” a new book about Kazakhstan in Slovak

Hertfordshire Press, a leading British publishing house, in cooperation with the Embassy of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the Slovak Republic and the national company Kazakh Tourism, published one of the first books about Kazakhstan in the Slovak language called “101 zážitkov z Kazachstanu” (101 experiences from Kazakhstan).

 

“101 zážitkov z Kazachstanu” is a vivid photo album and a kind of tourist guide that reveals in detail the origin and traditions of the country from ancient times to the present day, presenting people, architecture, interesting cities, amazing nature, mountains, and lakes full of beauty and numerous attractions.

 

For thousands of years, Kazakhstan has been a meeting place for civilizations, located in the very centre of the Great Silk Road. Today it is a country with a rapidly growing economy, a stable political system, and a unique culture in the Eurasian region.

 

“The book was published at the height of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic when it had been strange even to think that humanity would ever be able to return to normal life again, an integral part of which is traveling, discovering unknown places, meeting new people, and gaining new experiences. Nevertheless, as more and more news pour in from different parts of the world about progress in the development of vaccines against coronavirus this gives us hope that, in fact, a possibility of returning to normality is not that far off. This colourful book is a symbol of this hope for a fast return to a normal future. The publication of this book, one of the first about our country in the beautiful Slovak language, provides inspiration, and with it would like to say to our friends from the bottom of our hearts: ‘Welcome to a huge and unique country in the heart of Eurasia!’”
