The new facility is becoming part of the region’s emerging tourism infrastructure and is expected to give a new impetus to the development of domestic tourism.Kumart Aksakalov, the akim of the Kostanay Region, took part in the opening ceremony.

It includes a wave pool with artificial waves, a children’s area, “Aquatonic,” and water attractions.“Octopus” will become not only a place for family recreation but also a new city landmark capable of attracting guests to Kostanay from all over the country and neighboring countries.

Baitursynuly University; parks and squares are being improved, and avenues, walking, sports, and recreational areas are being created.At the same time, modern hotel infrastructure is being developed in Kostanay. Hotel complexes of international brands Marriott, Novotel, and Holiday Inn will be built in the city. As the head of the region noted, the growth of business activity and the arrival of new investors are increasing the demand for modern accommodation facilities. Taken together, such projects expand opportunities for recreation, social interaction, and self‑realization among young people, creating a more comfortable environment for living and working in the region.“Along with economic development and the launch of new factories and plants, it is necessary to create conditions for a comfortable life for people and meaningful family recreation. The Kostanay Region should have more unique facilities that are interesting both for residents and for visitors to the region. One such place will be our largest indoor water park in the country,” the regional akim noted.The opening of “Octopus” in this sense goes beyond the scope of a single facility. It complements the tourism offer of the Kostanay region and creates a new reason to visit the region, strengthening the role of the regional center as a point of attraction for tourists from different regions of the country.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanay/press/news/details/1278425?lang=ru
