Insider tip — Kapchagay Resort sits beside Kazakhstan's vast artificial Kapchagay Reservoir on the Ili River, where thermal mineral waters are piped into resort spa facilities serving Almaty's urban population seeking weekend escapes. The steppe landscape stretching to the Tian Shan foothills gives a distinctly Central Asian character to the bathing experience. The reservoir's size creates a lake-like microclimate that moderates summer temperatures, making it a practical retreat from Almaty's heat.
