Kyrgyzstan is the kind of place that makes you stop, look around and wonder why more people are not talking about it. π°π¬
Think soaring Tian Shan peaks, turquoise alpine lakes, traditional yurt stays, centuries old storytelling and horse games that make polo look calm.
It is also a destination that rewards good planning.
Before you go:
β° Plan journeys by driving time, not distance
π± Download offline maps before leaving the city
π΅ Carry cash for villages and remote stays
π§₯ Pack layers for rapidly changing mountain weather
π£ Keep a translation app handy outside the main tourism areas
