It has completely fallen into disrepair. They also surrounded it with a chain link. They are trying to take money for travel through the territory. And there is trash and garbage all around.
It's a cool place! Entrance and entry are paid from all sides! As I understand it, this place has been taken under control by someone and is being maintained in a normal state for tourists! They do not give checks, however, they explain that this is all private territory!
I got to the place in a low car. I drove carefully. It's a little difficult to find a place. I got a little lost, but it's worth it. The fortress, nature, the river nearby, in which we swam. You can order food if you are hungry.
The road is just terrible, or rather the lack of a road, we got from Almaty to Kapshagai in half an hour, we drove 2 hours from the concrete to nomad nomads. Yandex.maps guided us through the first turn, and there is a steep rocky descent. I had to go back and turn off at the third turn. Upon arrival at the place, it turned out that the entrance is paid, 1000 tenge for adults, 500 tenge for children, cash only. The cellular connection does not catch at all. The toilet is just awful.
The road to the nomads is sad, the asphalt is completely broken. The alternative is a sandy primer (tolerable on an off-road vehicle)
Be careful, it's easy to punch two wheels on a station wagon (bumpy, the vehicle in front of it punched two wheels on a harmless bump)
The city of nomads itself is cool, for half an hour. Nothing too cool.
The road from Ata through Kapchagai to the Kazakhstan Bridge, turn left there. After the village of Kazakhstan, the road was forgotten from the Union... But you can drive, after the village of 12-15 km and to the right there are many exits to the country road... Always keep to the right and you will get exactly to the city of nomads!!!
An interesting place! Almost like a real fortress! So it seems that now the real battle of the nomads with the invaders will begin. And if you step away from the scenery, you can feed a real swan. He's sitting in the river there and begging for food.
Of the disadvantages:
1. the lack of a normal road to the place (only by SUV) 20 km you drive for about an hour
2. dilapidated and infected location
3. midges
Of the advantages:
1. View of Or (I think you can find a better one)
2. Camels
It's a little dirty. This object is not being monitored.
With the help of the state, it would be possible to make a good sightseeing point for schoolchildren.
There should be no asphalt near the fortress, that's clear, but to get to this fortress - the road was never repaired for the last time. Near the fortress there is garbage, construction debris, garbage from tourists. Moreover, the visit to the attraction is paid. But it's probably impossible to collect garbage in the area for this money.

The ruins are not worth paying for a ticket

It's a pathetic sight, but they charge money, the road is terrible, but the view of the river is beautiful
The buildings are crumbling, there is no maintenance, there is no trash bin elementary and there is no restroom itself! Since money is taken from people, I think it would be possible to create conditions for them! And it's so beautiful there and the place is picturesque!
A good place for a photo shoot. You pay 1000 tenge, turn on your imagination and go ahead for new pictures. It's worse now than before, they used to let people on the second floor and shards hung in front of the gate... therefore 4*
It would not be like to remove construction debris from the territory. And an old battered car standing in the middle of the yard. Spoils the whole impression.
They gave 30 thousand rubles for a photo session of vnuri. Beware!:)

The road is broken, the toilets are terrible. There is no shade, no trees. Entrance is paid (adult 1000, children 500). There is no guide, everything is running, broken windows are lying around.
