Otrar played a special role in fight against Genghis Khan’s hordes. The ancient city of Turkestan has played a significant role in the history of the Kazakh nation. It was an important religious center that served as the residence of the Kazakh khans. The main attraction is the mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yassawi.
