«Zhety Qazyna» mobile app

The concept of zhety qazyna has a special place in the mindset of Kazakh people. Zhety qazyna means seven treasures. The Kazakh people associate many names and sayings with number seven. In ancient times, a Kazakh nomad used to have seven treasures - smart wife, a fast-footed horse, hunting golden eagle, loyal dog, weapons, trap, and a large cooking pot.
