Kazakhstan declared its independence on December 16, 1991, from USSR.
Today the people of Kazakhstan receive 2 days off work and school for Independence Day- the 16th and the 17th of December. It is common for towns and cities to have concerts full of traditional music and dance. Another Kazakh tradition is the “ghosti”. This is the tradition of visiting friends and relatives houses. It is custom to receive tea and sweets when you ghosti.
Here are some thoughts from a few Kazakh students.
---------
My homeland Kazakhstan. This country that be in central Eurasia. This is country of free peoples. Kazakhstan- a wonderfully beautiful earth. Here exists stately mountains (Zailiski Alatau), heavy rivers (Irtysh), Amudarya, Syrdarya and bloodless steppes. Kazakhstan- this earth, where peacefully live many different people. --- Gulnar
