ASTANA. June 7. KAZINFORM Embassy of Kazakhstan in the Netherlands has participated in one of the biggest European multi-cultural festivals Multifestijn in Rotterdam last weekend, the Kazakh Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
"Within the festival the Kazakh diplomatic mission presented information materials about Kazakhstan, so that the guests of the event could get more details about socioeconomic and cultural achievements, natural wealth, beauty of landscape, history and traditions of our people," the ministry's statement reads.
