A bit of history

Ust-Kamenogorsk is a city located in the eastern part of Kazakhstan. At the moment, about 320,000 people live in the city, where about 28% is the Kazakh population, and 67% are Russian-speaking citizens.

In 1720, Peter I sent researchers to an expedition led by IM Likharev. When the whole team of travelers approached Lake Zaisan, they were attacked by a jungar detachment. Despite the fact that the enemy was defeated, the researchers could not continue the path, because the shallow river Irtysh did not allow them to cross the border. Then, military reinforcements were sent to this place, to the mouth of two rivers - Ulba and Irtysh. The Russian army began building a fortress, which turned into the city of Ust-Kamenogorsk.
