This lake strikes you with its serenity. The absolute silence and harmony of nature are truly mesmerizing. You feel the breath of the wind caressing your face, the warmth of the sun’s rays, and a deep desire to become a part of this landscape.

The lake seems to invite you to wake up in the early hours to enjoy the unique spectacle of the sunrise. Find your perfect spot for a photo session—these impressions will last a lifetime.

Located at an altitude of over 3,000 meters above sea level, the lake is covered in ice for most of the year, which only fully disappears in May. In the summer, it becomes a highlight of our seven-day tour. Here, you can stay in a cozy alpine camp or a traditional yurt camp.

It is recommended to explore in groups or pairs, as there is no mobile connection here—a detail that adds a special charm of romance and true adventure to the journey.

The surroundings are home to many species of birds, some of which pass through during seasonal migrations. This place offers unforgettable moments of unity with nature and will leave you with vivid memories.

The Kyrgyz people have long been renowned for their warmth and hospitality. According to ancient tradition, any traveler is first offered food and drink, and only then is asked about their origin or the purpose of their visit.

Today, this custom is carefully preserved. A guest can step into almost any home and will inevitably be invited to share a meal at the common table.

In the tourism sector, the Kyrgyz have successfully integrated national customs into modern service. A visit to a traditional yurt always involves seating the guest in a place of honor and offering dishes beyond the standard menu, completely free of charge.

Locals easily recognize tourists and are always ready to assist if the need arises. Almost every resident is fluent in Russian, readily engages in conversation, and often invites strangers for a cup of fragrant tea.

Travelers who choose to hitchhike can count on special support; drivers are rarely deterred by a lack of payment, as a guest is perceived as a long-awaited visitor.

I once witnessed an incident at a high-mountain pass where a motorcyclist was stranded due to a mechanical breakdown. Local residents immediately stepped in, loading the motorcycle into their vehicle and driving the owner to the nearest settlement for repairs.

Another striking example occurred in the city of Cholpon-Ata, where a man fell while rollerblading. A group of passersby immediately approached to help, seated him on a chair they brought out, treated his wounds, and served him hot tea.

Such instances may seem like small details, but it is precisely these moments that make staying among the Kyrgyz people so warm and pleasant.

Our tours and itineraries always include encounters with the local population, allowing guests to truly immerse themselves in an atmosphere of friendliness and authentic hospitality.

«Turnaland» is more than just a compass for your travels; it is your guide into the heart of the interaction between the traveler and Kyrgyzstan’s culture of hospitality.
