Day 85

Another day of lovely villages and hills. The road was terrible until I reach the Oblast border, then it changes suddenly into a 4 lane super smooth highway and my speed increases dramatically. I get to Taraz in the evening and find a hotel. I spend the evening having a walk around the city and find the central square which is full of people. It seems to be a common sight in Kazakhstan for people to congregate in the central square and socialise. traders will operate selling all sorts of daft things such as balloons, hats, water pistols. Bicycles can be hired and kids zoom around on them. Horse rides can also be rented and for the very small little remote cars can be rented, the little placed in and then driven around or into things much to mum and dads amusement!

The road did change, and suddenly!


Night time action on central square.
