Sulaiman-Too mountain KG

Sulaiman-Too Sacred Mountain dominates the Fergana Valley and forms the backdrop to the city of Osh, at the crossroads of important routes on the Central Asian Silk Roads. For more than one and a half millennia, Sulaiman was a beacon for travellers revered as a sacred mountain.
Multi-temporal and heterogeneous monuments dating from the Neolithic to the late Middle Ages inclusive form Historical-archeological complex Sulaiman-Too. 
They are represented by the location of stone tools, places of worship, petroglyphs, settlements of the Bronze Age, the paths of pilgrims, many of which are still in use today. Besides, there are epigraphy, medieval architectural, irrigation facilities, ethographic zone. The significant and intangible heritage of the mountain expressed in legends, microtoponymy, in the living rituals of worship and sacrifice, in the traditional ethics of behavior and service. 
That is why Sulaiman-Too became the first object of Kyrgyzstan included in 2009 to the UNESCO list of the World natural and cultural heritage as the only sacred mountain in this region of Central Asia, uniting the most diverse natural and cultural components of different eras, expressing the spiritual aspirations of varions communities united by universal world views. 

Culture

Petroglyphs, mirror of the peoples of Central Asia

Long neglected by scientists, the study of rock art represents a direct gateway to the imagination of peoples who have lived across the vast natural expanses of Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.

Culture in Mongolia Mongolia

Mongolia is well known for its nomadic traditions. The nomadic lifestyle is still practiced today in rural areas of the country. The nomads follow a seasonal routine of breeding and rearing the five main types of livestock: goat, sheep, yaks, camel and horse, migrating from one place to another following the most favorable pastures and campsites.

The traditional Mongolian dance is the biyelgee, especially for the peoples of western Mongolia. It is performed on the music of Mongolian national musical instruments, such as the morin khuur (horse-headed violin) and the yochin.

Top 10 things to do in Karakol, Kyrgyzstan

Karakol is a great base camp for day tours or multi-day tours in the mountains near by. The trekking and horseback riding possibilities are limitless and it’s still possible to find places that are untouched by large tour groups. My advice is to spend at least one full day in Karakol to just walk around and enjoy something different than Bishkek, Osh, and Kochkor. I hope you enjoy this blog post about Karakol and the area if you have any questions about the Karakol area get a hold of me. You can enjoy a short film about me here: About Alex
