The square was opened in honor of the 125th anniversary of the politician Akhmet Baitursynov, who is inextricably linked with the history of the Kazakh people. Information about who the green space in the city center is dedicated to can be found on the honorary granite plaque.
The square named after him. Akhmet Baitursynov is located at the intersection of Baitursynov and Zhambyl streets. This place is great for a leisurely stroll and sports activities.
The infrastructure of the square
To maintain an active lifestyle among the population, sports equipment is installed in the park, and a playground is functioning for children.
Monument to the soldiers-liquidators of the Chernobyl disaster
In 2016, in honor of the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, a 4-meter monument to the soldiers-liquidators was unveiled. By the way, out of 600 thousand people who put out the fire, 23 thousand were Kazakhstanis.
The tragic obelisk consists of two reliefs: on the one hand, the first stage of the disaster with firefighters extinguishing the flames is depicted, on the other — the elimination of the consequences itself: helicopters and converted tanks with cranes.
The park is, of course, normal, but these scooters are constantly riding there and interfere with walking there quietly, so there are also children having fun on the playground
