Kyrgyzstan is one of Central Asia’s best-kept treasures. It’s an enchanting land where snow-covered mountains seem to merge with the clouds. The allure of alpine lakes with their turquoise waters, breathtaking gorges, glacial rivers and expansive velvety grasslands, along with untamed wildlife and peacefully grazing cattle, creates a surreal landscape.
Situated to the north of India, Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked country boasting the world’s second-largest alpine lake, Issyk-Kul. All the routes on this journey trace back to the ancient Silk Road, once a vital passage for transporting silk and spices from China and India to the European continent.
