Aktobe is a Kazakh city located in the easternmost point of Europe, south of the Ural Mountains on the Russian border. Located on the left bank of the Ilek River, the city is the fifth largest city in Kazakhstan and stands out with its industrial side.
Although it is not very interesting touristically, it is a different destination in terms of seeing Kazakhstan's understanding of urbanism and its population is expected to reach one million in 2030. The lands on which Aktobe extends to the Kızılkum Desert in Karakalpakstan today were actually under the Tethys Sea millions of years ago.
For this reason, the Aktobe region, which is extremely rich in minerals and oil, is a region that attracts the attention of investors. Aktobe is an important city with its historical structure, as it is in a geographical location where the Silk Road passed through in history.
