But the main treasure of the country is certainly the Issyk Kul, one of the largest mountain lakes, second only to the famous South American Titicaca, and one of the deepest on the globe. Because of its salt water the Issyk Kul is frequently called a sea. It captivates you with its beauty. The northern shore of the lake has been colonized by tourists since olden days: there are a set of good boarding houses, sanatoriums, and holiday centers. The principal resort of the country is Cholpon-Ata, and on arriving here, you can spend a couple of unforgettable weeks on the sand beach. Modern Kyrgyzstan lies in a very ancient land. Scientists say that here there was one of the centers of the human civilization origin. But the golden age of this land started, when the legendary Silk Road was established; it passed here, connecting China and the capital of the Roman Empire. And still, thousands of tourists come to Kyrgyzstan to travel by the Silk Road, the legendary way that bridged civilizations of East and West.
And when you want to return from the antiquity to the present, simply come to Bishkek, capital of the country, the cultural center, a young garden city surrounded by a ring of beautiful mountains. During the recent years, Bishkek has become one of the Central Asian centers of congress-tourism; and it has a lot to offer its well-to-do guests and business partners first of all, convenient conference halls and several modern hotels. And if you have arrived to Kyrgyzstan not only for settling business issues, you can take off your jacket and tie, put on tracking boots, and go to the mountains: to look, breathe, explore this ancient land, divine expanses of Kyrgyzstan.
