About Astana
Astana is the capital of Kazakhstan, a planned city on the steppe in the north of the country, known for its modern architecture, including the Baiterek tower and the Khan Shatyr centre. It is the seat of government and home to a growing international financial centre.
Kazakhstan now uses a single time zone, UTC+5, across the whole country, with no daylight saving. That means Astana and Almaty show the same time, which was not always the case. The city is five hours ahead of London in winter and four in summer. Winters here are long and cold, with short days.
