Travel to Kyrgyzstan 1















When I checked in San Diego airport,I was asked amazingly:"Where is Kyrgyzstan?" Well,it's located in central Asia. It has borders with Kazakhstan,China,Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. In 1991 it became independent of the Soviet Union. About 90% of the land are mountains. The capital is Bishkek,over one million population, official languages are Russia and Kirghiz.


About an hour driving,we went to the mountains where locals come for vacation over the weekends. Even the president of Kyrgyzstan has a summer house there.


Bishkek is the greenest city in this region. There is a one-block wide belt park going just through the city center. Trees and lawns scatter all over the flat land. Loads of statues sit silently in the park,looking at the changes of the seasons,people,and the city. Mostly on weekends,brides and grooms make memorable photos in the beautiful,full of flowers Oak Park.
