Getting there
The cable car from the lower station in the centre, or the park bus up.
The hill the city climbs to look at itself.
The cable car was launched on 4 November 1967. Today's 1,620-metre line takes 6–8 minutes to reach an altitude of about 1,100 metres.
Above the hill rises a 371.5-metre TV tower. It was built from the mid-1970s to 1983 and can be seen from almost everywhere.
A bronze Beatles by Eduard Kazaryan has been sitting here since May 2007. In 2018 a very similar sculpture appeared in Liverpool, and the Almaty sculptor considers it a copy.
