THE WILD ROAD TO KAINDY

The adventure to Kaindy Lake is a story in itself, beginning with a rugged 4WD ride along untamed mountain trails before continuing on horseback, just as the nomads once traveled. Each turn of the journey builds anticipation until the forest suddenly opens to reveal a hidden alpine jewel — Kaindy Lake, where ghostly sunken spruce trees rise eerily from turquoise waters. The thrill of the off-road ride, the cultural touch of horseback travel, and the surreal beauty of this otherworldly lake come together in perfect harmony, creating not just a scenic stop but the most unforgettable highlight of the journey.

ALMATY

NATURE’S GATEWAY

Almaty, Kazakhstan’s former capital, is a city where vibrant urban life meets extraordinary natural wonders. Nestled at the foot of the Tien Shan mountains, it offers leafy boulevards, lively cafés, and cultural treasures, while serving as the perfect gateway to the region’s most breathtaking landscapes. Just a few hours away lies Charyn Canyon, often called the “Grand Canyon of Central Asia,” with its dramatic Valley of the Castles. Beyond, the alpine beauty of Kolsay Lake enchants with forested slopes and serene waters, while nearby Kaindy Lake captivates visitors with its turquoise depths and ghostly sunken forest. Together, they make Almaty truly unforgettable.

  
 

KARAKOL

CULTURAL CROSSROADS

Karakol, set at the eastern tip of Lake Issyk-Kul in Kyrgyzstan, is a charming town where culture, history, and nature blend seamlessly. Known for its unique mix of Dungan, Russian, and Kyrgyz influences, the town boasts architectural gems like the wooden Russian Orthodox Church with golden domes and the colorful Dungan Mosque built without nails. Karakol is also famous for its food culture, especially Ashlan-fu and Karakol-style fried chicken. Beyond the town, dramatic landscapes await — from the red cliffs of Jeti-Ögüz to alpine meadows and hot springs in the surrounding valleys, making Karakol a perfect gateway to adventure and tradition.

  
 

BARSKOON

ALPINE GEM

Barskoon Gorge, located on the southern shore of Lake Issyk-Kul in Kyrgyzstan, is a breathtaking valley renowned for its dramatic scenery and cascading waterfalls. The gorge is framed by towering cliffs and pine forests, with crystal-clear rivers rushing through, making it a favorite spot for both locals and travelers. Its waterfalls, including the famous “Tears of the Snow Leopard,” are easily reached by a gentle hike, rewarding visitors with refreshing mountain views. At the entrance, the Yuri Gagarin Monument pays tribute to the first man in space, who once vacationed here. With its blend of natural beauty and history, Barskoon Gorge offers an unforgettable escape.

  
 

KYRGYZSTAN

NOMADIC HUNT

Kyrgyz eagle hunting is one of the most fascinating living traditions of Central Asia, passed down through generations of nomadic families. Known locally as “berkutchi”, hunters train golden eagles from a young age to hunt foxes, hares, and even wolves across the vast steppes and mountains. The bond between hunter and eagle is extraordinary, built on years of trust and mutual respect. Watching an eagle in flight, with its powerful wings spread wide, is both awe-inspiring and deeply symbolic of Kyrgyz heritage. More than a sport, eagle hunting represents identity, pride, and the enduring spirit of a nomadic way of life.

  
 

BISHKEK

SOVIET ECHOES

Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, is a city where Soviet-era history, nomadic culture, and modern life intersect. Wide boulevards lined with leafy trees give it a relaxed atmosphere, while its backdrop of the snow-capped Ala-Too mountains makes every view striking. The city’s heart, Ala-Too Square, hosts national celebrations and gatherings, symbolizing Kyrgyz identity and resilience. Bustling Osh Bazaar immerses visitors in local life, from fragrant spices and fresh nuts to handmade crafts and textiles. Soviet architecture stands beside monuments honoring the country’s past, while cafés and parks offer a contemporary touch. Bishkek is both a cultural hub and a gateway to Kyrgyzstan’s mountain adventures.

  
 

HUNS ETHNO VILLAGE

TRADITION ALIVE

Huns Ethno Village offers an immersive journey into Kazakhstan’s nomadic heritage, bringing centuries-old traditions to life in an interactive and memorable way. Visitors are greeted with the colorful Shashu ritual, where sweets are scattered to symbolize joy and welcome, before stepping into a world of nomadic customs. Here, you can try your hand at making baursaks (traditional puffy bread), watch demonstrations of wool whisking and flour grinding, or witness the moving Syrga Salu ceremony, preparing a bride for marriage. Archery lessons and warrior displays add a touch of adventure. More than a performance, it is a living experience of Kazakh culture.
