Pavlodar stands on the Irtysh in northeastern Kazakhstan, on flat steppe near the Russian border. It is an industrial city built up in the Soviet period around aluminium and power generation, with a long riverside embankment.
The Irtysh embankment is the city's main public space and the focus of summer life. A large modern mosque and the regional museum are the principal built attractions, and the Bayanaul national park with its rock formations and pine woods lies to the southwest.
Buses and taxis cover the city and the embankment is walkable. Rail and road connections run across northern Kazakhstan and into Russia.
Summer is short and warm and much the best for the river and the national park. Winters on the northern steppe are long and severely cold.
Kazakhstan uses the KZT, calling code +7.
Kazakhstan uses the tenge, and Kazakh is the state language with Russian very widely spoken here. Hospitality is emphatic, and cards are widely accepted in the city.
