At the Chamber of Entrepreneurs were awarded the winners of the photo contest "I love Kazakhstan!"

Visitors photographic exhibitions throughout the world admired the photo of Ilya Afanasiev under the name "Tract Bozzhira". This year, the guests of the Louvre admired it during the exhibition about Kazakhstan. The picture shows the western part of the Ustyurt plateau of Mangyshlak Peninsula. Then a group of photographers and videographers specifically went to the Mangistau region. Ilya Afanasiev admits he would like very citizen of Kazakhstan to be able to visit such a unique place inside the homeland.

"There are a lot beautiful places in Kazakhstan. It seems to me that for foreign tourists, it is difficult that all these attractions are located at a considerable distance from each other, and travel companies need to work on proper organization of tourist routes. The condition of roads is quite poor. It is very difficult to reach some places. Another problem – is to get all sorts of permissions to enter the conservation area", - says the photographer Ilya Afanasiev.

The photo under the name "Tract Bozzhira" became one of the winners of the Republican Photo Contest "I love Kazakhstan". The competition is organized by the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of Kazakhstan "Atameken" and the Metropolitan Association of Tourism with the aim to popularize travel inside the country. 98 Kazakhstani residents took part in the contest and sent 655 photos.

Another winner was Alexander Vlasyuk with the work “Almaty region field”. Alexander is also a professional photographer. But he notes that all the photos sent to the contest aroused his admiration.

"This photo was taken just 60 kilometers from Almaty. I went to shoot a field of poppies in May, walked two - three kilometers on foot. And I came across this tree. Such competitions is a very good incentive for travel. I saw among the photos such places, which I want to visit and to take photos of, and I plan to take a trip in the near future ", - shared Alexander Vlasyuk.

The student Gulnar Ansaganova from Kostanay with the work "Childhood - the pearl of life" became another winner. Elena Chuikova with the work “Piligrims” is one more winner.
