Unknown
Land Kyrgyzstan






In
Central Asia there is a beautiful land, crossed by the Tien Shan and
Pamir-Alai mountain ranges. This is the country of Kyrgyzstan (the Kyrgyz
Republic). Do not confuse with Kurdistan!!!
You
can meet several variants spelling of the name of this country in English:
Kirgiz Republic, Kirghiz Republic, Kyrghyz Republic, Kirgizstan, Kirghizstan,
Kirgizia, Kyrgyzia, Kirghizia.
Population of Kyrgyzstan is 5 000 000 people.
Kyrgyzstan
is a country of striking contrasts. This is the land of magnificent
snow-topped mountains and alpine meadows with scattered flowers; swift
rivers with foamy waterfalls and steppes with the smell of wormwood.
This is the land of blue lakes and green valleys.
Kyrgyzstan
has the 'pearl' of Central Asia - Lake Issyk-Kul, which is an emerald-blue
Alpine lake competing in beauty with the lakes of Switzerland.
The
rich relief; abundant mountain lakes and waterfalls; walnut and fruit-tree
forests; alpine meadows and glaciers; Lake Issyk-Kul, with its health
resorts and good climate; historical and architectural sites; the original
traditional nomadic culture of the Kyrgyz people - all these features
make Kyrgyzstan very attractive for international tourism.
The
unique Alpine Lake Issyk-Kul, which remains unfrozen in winter, is especially
attractive. Lake Issyk-Kul looks marvelous in any season. A number of
resorts and rest houses located on the coast of the lake operate all
year round.
The
mountains surrounding the lake are beautiful. The Kungay Ala-Too and
Terskay Ala-Too mountain ranges abound in picturesque gorges with fir
trees and swift flowing mountain streams. Once seen, sights such as
the gorges of Djety-Oguz, Ak-Suu, Altyn-Arashan, Semenovskoye and Grigoryevskoye;
the Barskoon waterfall and other places in the Issyk-Kul basin can hardly
be forgotten.
Foot
crossing over the Kungay Ala-Too ridge to Kazakhstan along tourist path
is quite interesting and impressive. Tourists can enjoy the marvelous
panorama of mountains and Alpine lakes. Alpine Lake Kelsay, located
on the tourist route from the side of Kazakhstan, is beautiful.
The
environs of Bishkek city with the gorges of the northern slope of the
Kyrgyz moutain ridge are very attractive for mountain tourism. There
are picturesque gorges: Ala-Archa, Alamedin, Kegety, Issyk-Ata, Sokuluk,
Ak-Suu, and Shamshy. In the neighborhood of Bishkek there are plenty
of beautiful waterfalls: Kegety, Belogorsky, and Golubinniy. "Ala-Archa"
National Park-Natural Reserve is in the Ala-Archa Gorge. Alpinists'
Camp "Ala-Archa" is located on its territory. There are a
number of skiing bases on the mountainsides southwards Bishkek.
The
mountains of the Fergana Valley covered with fruit-trees and walnut
forests attract tourists. There is a tourist centre "Arslanbob".
The
Sary-Chelek lake is surely the most beautiful Alpine lake in the West
of Kyrgyzstan. The Sary-Chelek Natural Reserve is one of the most remarkable
places in Kyrgyzstan. The wild nature of the Chatkal Ridge, relic fir-tree
forests and the transparent lake are very attractive for tourists. Southwards
the lake there are Kara-Jygach weathering stone columns. Northwards
the Chatkal Ridge there is Kara-Toko area with a great number of picturesque
alpine lakes. Eastwards the Chatkal Ridge there is Chonkurchak - a splendid
group of seven lakes.
