Birlik (Kazakh: Бiрлiк, Bırlık)[2] is a village (selo) in Talgar District of Almaty Region of south-eastern Kazakhstan.

The main road leads west and then forks off to the northwest, joining the A351 highway which leads to the Turksib District in the eastern suburbs of Almaty and the airport.

Given its proximity to Almaty and good international connections through the nearby airport, Birlik is a developing settlement.

In recent years there has been interest from investors,[3] including an Indian firm looking to develop beer production facilities in Birlik.
