Astana is a new city, built specifically as the capital. We spent one night in Astana and that was enough. I recommend visiting the mosque and the tower. About 1.5 hours from Astana is a former gulag (for women and children) - we hired a driver to take us there.

Very safe. I walk alone after dark a lot and haven't experienced any trouble in any part of the city ever. All streets are lit and paved, so there are none really dark spots a tourist can get into. Locals are pretty friendly too
Posted: August 28, 2025At the daytime very safe however at the night time especially when you are only by yourself in some areas of the city a little bit dangerous. Just make sure that you are hanging out with smn you know at the night

Posted: June 20, 2025Astana is a pretty safe place for all kind of travelers. Local people value hospitality. The crime levels are low-moderate. There are almost no robberies,attacks. The center of the city might be safer than outskirts.
