Boise

The mountainous landlocked country of Kyrgyzstan lies in Central Asia bordered by China on the east and west. Its climate is broadly Continental with hot summers and cold winters without much rainfall. The northeastern part of the country is best known for its high-altitude lake, Issyk-Kul surrounded by Tian Shan Mountains. At an elevation of 1600 m above sea level, this second-largest alpine lake in the world never freezes and welcomes migratory birds year-round. Fishing and hiking are among the most preferred activities around this attraction. Bishkek, the capital city at the foothills of Tian Shan Mountains, is well-known for Ala-Too Square featuring cafes serving local delicacies and shops selling traditional handicrafts. An hour’s drive away from the capital is Ala Archa National Park. Hiking is a popular activity at this alpine park. In the country’s southwest region, Fergana Valley, is Osh, Kyrgyzstan’s second largest city. It is also an ancient city and lies near to Sulayaman Mountain, the country’s only UNESCO World Heritage Site. The National Historical and Archaeological Museum Complex Sulayaman is inside a cave at the mountain. Osh is also a major shopping centre in the country. The Great Silk Road Bazaar is the largest in Central Asia selling traditional knives and other handicrafts. To book a flight and stay for exploring Kyrgyzstan, opt for MakeMyTrip.
