Remarkable Ceremony Held On 500Th Anniversary Of Kazakh Khanate

A spectacular ceremony was held in Kazakh city of Taraz to mark the 550th anniversary of the Kazakh Khanate on Thursday with the participation of Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Attending opening ceremony of monuments on founder Khans Kerey and Zhanibek, Nazarbayev stated that the origin of the Kazakh Khanate dates back to very ancient times.

“Over the years of independence, expeditions were organised in various parts of the world in order to study and collect information about our ancient past. Our history dates back to the Saks, Huns, Turks and continues with the move of Khans Kerey and Zhanibek to the banks of Chu River, where the flag of the Kazakh Khanate was raised. We hold these festivities to demonstrate the antiquity of our history to the younger generation and the whole world,” Nazarbayev said.
