After a long journey away from the city of Almaty, we landed in one of the places that often flies under the radar for many travelers; Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. This beautiful country in Central Asia offers many stunning destinations that are rich in culture and warm-hearted people.
Kyrgyzstan is a paradise for nature lovers, renowned for its natural beauty, from the peaks of the Tien Shan mountains to the vast landscapes.
After we reach the city, we jump right away to Ramada Hotel by Wyndham in Bishkek to prepare our things for our next escapade around the center.
On the midway, we grabbed some food in Asia Mall 20 minutes away from our hotel, bought good snacks, grocery items, and Gavin’s Hotwheels Batman collections.
The hotel is within walking distance to the parks, restaurants, and business districts but the traffic is heavy during peak hours. I suggest using the Yandex Go app to book your car rather than a taxi as the price is higher for taxis.
The next day, we went to Ala Archa National Park outside the capital Bishkek 1 hour away by private car.
This location is best for hikers and climbers as the rugged terrain offers awesome trekking routes with panoramic views of the Tien Shan mountains.
Kyrgyzstan’s culture is a fascinating blend of traditional nomadic practices and modern influences. Don’t miss out on trying the ‘Beshbarmak’ a dish of boiled meat and noodles, ‘Lagman’ noodle soap, and fermented milk!
Whether you’re trekking through the mountains, soaking in the beauty of the lakes, or immersing yourself in local traditions, Kyrgyzstan promises an unforgettable adventure.
Let’s Go! Pack your bags and discover this hidden place in Central Asia, you’ll be rewarded with memories that last a lifetime.
