It has been formerly known under its old Russian name of '''Georgievka'''.<br /> <br /> [[European route E40]], known locally as Highway M-39 (based on the old [[USSR]] highway numbering scheme), on its way from [[Bishkek]] to [[Almaty]] crosses the [[Chu River]] at Korday, making Korday border crossing arguably the most important crossing on the Kazakh-[[Kyrgyzstan|Kyrgyz]] border. (The Kazakhstan point of entry is known as Korday, while its counterpart on the Kyrgyz side is called Akjol, or Akjol-[[Chu River|Shu]]). Buses, [[minivans|passenger vans]], and taxis take passengers from the Kyrgyz side of the crossing to Bishkek and from the Kazakh side to the railway junction of [[Shu, Jambyl|Shu]], while others go directly between Bishkek and Almaty through the Korday checkpoint. Trucks carry goods, mostly Chinese imports, from Bishkek's [[Dordoy Bazaar]] to Kazakhstan and further on to Russia.<br /> <br /> Incidents of truckers [[ford (crossing)|ford]]ing the Chu River away from the bridge, to circumvent the customs, have been reported as well.&lt;ref&gt;[http://www.iwpr.net/?p=rca&amp;s=f&amp;o=162097&amp;apc_state=henirca2004 Kazakhstan: Smugglers Target Open Border]<br /> By Gaziza Baituova, 14-Dec-04&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Renowned director/producer [[Sanzhar Sultanov]] was born in this village.<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{commons category|Korday}}<br /> {{reflist}}<br /> <br /> {{coord|43|02|N|74|43|E|region:KZ_type:city(23500)_source:dewiki|display=title}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Populated places in Jambyl Region]]<br /> [[Category:Kazakhstan–Kyrgyzstan border crossings]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{kazakhstan-geo-stub}}</div>
