About the city
Petropavlovsk is the administrative center of the North Kazakhstan region on the bank of the Ishim, a city with a population of over 200 thousand people. It was founded in 1752 as the Petrovskaya fortress on the Ishim line and quickly grew into a trading point at the junction of the Kazakh steppe routes and the Siberian tract.
The proximity to the border with Russia (about 60 km) and the railway junction made it an important logistics center of Northern Kazakhstan. The historic center has preserved the merchant buildings of the late 19th — early 20th century, wooden mansions and trading rows; today there are many pedestrian boulevards, squares and embankments here, convenient for walks in any season.
The climate is sharply continental: a warm summer (the average July temperature is about +20…+22 °C), a frosty winter (in January on average −18…−20 °C); the most comfortable months for walks are May–June and September.
