The charm of the East and mountain landscapes

Kyrgyzstan is called the "Switzerland of Central Asia" for its beautiful mountains and blooming alpine meadows. Here you can drive along breathtaking serpentine roads, relax by the legendary Lake Issyk-Kul, explore awe-inspiring gorges, stroll through an oriental bazaar, and sample the hearty and aromatic local cuisine. The hospitality of the locals will make your trip incredibly warm and inviting.

Tourists interested in history and architecture will also find Kyrgyzstan a fascinating destination. Cholpon-Ata boasts petroglyphs dating back over four thousand years, and from the top platform of the perfectly preserved Burana Tower (9th-11th centuries), you can admire the magnificent panorama of the Chui Valley, marveling at how harmoniously human-made structures blend with the picturesque landscape.
