An environmentally tidy urban area
خلفية ثقافية
The 'Taza Kazakhstan' campaign is a nationwide movement involving millions of people to improve urban ecology. Cleanliness was a survival trait in the steppe; leaving a clean campsite ensured the health of the next tribe and the land. The 'Subbotnik' (Saturday cleanup) remains a popular way for city dwellers to bond and clean their 'taza qala'. Eco-activism is rising among Kazakh youth, who use 'Taza qala' as a slogan for sustainable living.
Use it as a compliment
Locals love hearing that their city is 'taza'. It shows you respect their home.
Pronounce the 'Q'
Make sure to distinguish 'Qala' (city) from 'Kala' (not a word). The 'Q' is deep in the throat.
