Moving to Aktau
The city of Aktau is one of the largest in Kazakhstan. Located on the Caspian Sea, it is an important seaport. It's nickname “The White Mountain” comes from the white cliffs which overlook the sea. At first glance, navigating around Aktau can be confusing. This is because a unique feature of the town is that the streets don't have names. Addresses are made up of three numbers; that of the block, building and apartment located within. Other expats living in Aktau on the InterNations website will be able to help you find your way around the city. Two landmarks that simply must be seen are the Underground Mosque of Becket-Ata and the Shevchenko Monument. Both of them are historically important and impressive sights. If you want to find other people to go with, you could always organize a meet up with other expats living in Aktau and go together. It's good to find friends with whom to visit Yntymak Square and the beach.
