A high alpine lake big enough to be mistaken for the sea, yurts pitched in meadows for anyone who wants to sleep the way nomads still do, and eagles hunting from the wrist the same way they have for centuries.
The best time to visit Kyrgyzstan — Issyk-Kul & the Tian Shan is Jun–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 33°C (91°F).
