Situated between two quite different natural and climatic zones ( Central Asia and Siberia ), Kazakhstan is the region where the cold air masses from the north meet with the hot winds from the south. That is why Kazakhstan has the sharp continental climate. It is characterized by irregular distributions of precipitation in its different areas. In separate years spring stretches from the south to the north during 1,5 - 2 months (when it is spring sowing in the south, the north area is covered with snow and the blizzards storm frequently).

The land of Kazakhstan is rich in different soils. The greater part of forest-steppe zone are chernozems which turn to dark-chestnut, light-chestnut and brown soils in the south. There are grey-soil lands in the deserts and semideserts which are replaced by the mountain soils. It should be considered an absolute privilege to have an opportunity to tour the country of Kazakhstan.
