Medeu



Medeu is a small town, 1700 (5576 feet) up in the Zailiysky Alatau Mountains. The town consists of a number of buildings constructed around the world's largest speed skating rink. The ice-skating rink is open from October to May and it gets really busy during the weekends and on holidays.

Some 500 m (1640 feet) higher up the mountain slope is the town of Shymbulaq. Other interesting places in the area are the Bolshoe Almatinskoe Lake and the Zailiysky Alatau and the Küngey Alatau Mountains.

Medeu is 15 km south of Almaty and buses run between the town and the capital.
