Bishkek, Feb. 21, 2019. /Kabar/. The tourist opportunities of Kyrgyzstan began to attract the attention of Belarusians, as evidenced by the article “Why is It Worth Going to Kyrgyzstan?” (Russian: Почему стоит поехать в Киргизию?) on one of the news resources Telegraf.by.
The short material contains a summary of the natural wealth and cultural attractions that might interest readers from Belarus to visit Kyrgyzstan. Below is the full translation of the article.
The unusual geographical position of Kyrgyzstan, the amazing nature, the elevation changes, the world famous lakes more than compensate for the absence of centuries-old cultural heritage in its territory.
The beautiful mountainous landscape of the Central Tien Shan is the reason why this country is called Switzerland in Central Asia. Everybody who ever had a chance to fly to Kyrgyzstan compares the journey around the country with a fairy tale.
You can get to Kyrgyzstan by plane. The website for buying cheap air tickets to Bishkek will help you find the best option.
Fans of beach, health, environmental, ski, extreme and exotic types of recreation can be sure that Kyrgyzstan is the place where you can fully enjoy your favorite activities.
Without exaggeration, the most beautiful mountain lake, Issyk-Kul, is called a natural pearl of the country. For six months, the swimming season lasts at the lake, it is no wonder that its name means “hot lake”. Many resort villages and small towns located around Issyk-Kul attract lovers of ecological and health tourism.
I must say that the rest in Issyk-Kul is not much different from rest at popular seaside resorts. Tourists can swim in the cleanest water of Issyk-Kul and sunbathe at its snow-white beaches, water-ski, catamaran, yacht and scooter rides. And mud and thermal procedures help holidaymakers to bring their health back to normal.
In addition to the famous Issyk-Kul, it is worth mentioning the glacial lakes Jassyk-Kul and Merzbacher, Chatyr-Kul Lake and one of the most beautiful high-altitude lakes in Kyrgyzstan – Sary-Chelek. These are the main natural sights of which Kyrgyzstan is so proud today.
Moscow, as well as many other metropolises, may seem to someone a much more interesting place for recreation, but it can hardly boast a unique opportunity to fully unite with nature, which Kyrgyzstan can offer.
A kind of Mecca for climbers from many countries is the Central Tien Shan. Throughout the year, thrill-seekers try to conquer the Peaks of Victory, Semenov-Tien-Shansky, Khan-Tengri and a number of scenic peaks. The mountainous regions of Tien Shan are famous for the richest fauna, the outstanding representative of which is the snow leopard, listed in the Red Book many years ago.
Talas oblast of Kyrgyzstan attracts with colossal canyons, many beautiful lakes and rivers, as well as amazing cascades of waterfalls. No less interesting are the old-growth forests of Arslanbob, which cannot be found anywhere else on the planet. Lovers of eco-tourism should visit a number of beautiful gorges of the country. The most surprising of them are Ak-Suu, Chon-Kyzyl-Suu, Altyn-Arashan, Karakol and Dzhety-Oguz.
Despite the small number of ski resorts, lovers of this winter type of recreation have long been frequent guests at ski resorts in Kyrgyzstan. The explanation for this is the simplest – the emotions received from the favorite activity are enormous, and the prices are much lower than those established in the fashionable European resorts. At each ski resort in the country there is a rental of special equipment, equipped tracks for beginners and aces and safe rope-drag lifts.
History lovers should definitely visit the city of Bishkek, which is rich in sights, as well as Shah-Fazil mausoleum, the Burana tower and Tash-Rabat caravanserai.
