Resorts of Kyrgyzstan
The staggering variety of natural beauty in Kyrgyzstan makes Russia's southern neighbor particularly attractive in terms of tourism. The endless steppes and the landscape of the water surface of Lake Issyk-Kul are interspersed here with the snow caps of the Tien Shan and Pamir mountains, and the exotic flavor of the east is successfully intertwined with the comfort and service of modern achievements of civilization. The tourist trail has not yet been trodden to the resorts of Kyrgyzstan, and therefore pleasant prices and a lot of free space in every sense are guaranteed to everyone who dares to buy a ticket to Bishkek.
For or Against?
Weighing the arguments in favor or against vacationing at the resorts of Kyrgyzstan, it is worth approaching the selection process objectively so that unpleasant little things could not darken the rest:
- Russian tourists do not need a visa to Kyrgyzstan, and the travel time between Moscow and Bishkek does not exceed four hours of clean summer. But you will not be able to use a credit card freely and everywhere on the territory of Kyrgyzstan. A traveler will be able to withdraw cash from an ATM only in the capital and in the city of Osh. In other settlements, ATMs are either extremely rare, or none at all. It will also be possible to pay with a credit card in only some of the capital's institutions..
- Public intercity transport in the country does not always adhere to the schedule punctually, and therefore, when planning independent excursions, it is important to leave more time for transfers.
- The roads leading to the cities and resorts of Kyrgyzstan from the capital, alas, are not of the best quality, and the car rental system here is not ideal yet. This serves as a reason to refuse rental car services and use a taxi with a driver. It won't cost too much, but with fewer problems.
Active and athletic
Gorgeous views of the five-thousanders and the blue expanse of Issyk-Kul open from the panoramic platform of the Karakol ski resort of Kyrgyzstan. Well-groomed slopes are laid here for fans of the classics. the length of which is more than three kilometers, and fans of freeriding can get their adrenaline rush on the untouched virgin snow.
Modern cable cars are the pride of the Norus ski base in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. The ability to take a helicopter to the downhill slope makes this resort a Mecca for experienced skiers and snowboarders..
From November to mid-spring, the trails of the Kashka-Suu ski base are available, where athletes prefer to relax with families. The presence of playgrounds, equipment rental and experienced instructors at the resort are good reasons to conquer the picturesque Kyrgyz slopes for the first time.
