About Yesil District

Yesil District is the face of modern Kazakhstan. Spread across the Left Bank of the Ishim river, this is the planned, monumental heart of Astana, where the golden Bayterek Tower, the Presidential Palace and the ministries line the ceremonial Nurzhol Boulevard amid a skyline of bold, internationally designed architecture. It is at once the seat of government and the capital's showcase residential quarter, home to the newest and highest-specification housing in the country. Life here revolves around large, self-contained complexes. The Korean-built Highvill development functions almost like a small city, with its own shops, cafes, gardens and security, and similar amenity-rich towers cluster near the tent-shaped Khan Shatyr mall and the landmark Abu Dhabi Plaza. Families are drawn by leading schools such as Haileybury Astana and the green expanse of the 92-hectare Astana Botanical Garden, while government and corporate professionals provide a steady base of rental demand. The extreme continental climate is a genuine consideration, but for buyers seeking the capital's most modern, secure and prestigious living, the Left Bank is the clear choice.
