Eco tourism in Kyrgyzstan. Places that will take your breath away!

Hello there,
Today I would like to review top places to visit in Kyrgyzstan that will take your breath away! These places are defenitely worth to visit if you are here.

There is only one important thing! Please be careful! 
You may fall in love with the mountains forever! :)

# 1. Altyn-Arashan.

Altyn-Arashan is my favorite and is the most beautiful gorge and valley I've ever been and seen in Kyrgyzstan. When you get there you will get into the mountains covered with enourmously high and huge spruce forests, a place of untouched wild nature where the air is transparently fresh like nowhere and where it seems the mountains touch the sky. Every corner and meter of the valley will remind you of a fairytale or at least of a scene from the movie "Lord of the Rings". :)

In order to imagine the scales of this incredible spruce forest you should find a car on this picture. :) The spruces seem to reach the sky.

#2. Jeti-Oguz.

Jeti-Oguz valley is famous for its rock formation that is called "Seven Bulls", although we've counted more "bulls". :)

So here are the bulls from the front side.

But even more impressive for me was the rock in the form of the broken heart - it's the same bull but from the back side.



And this is not the end! The adventure continues. It starts far behind this rocks. When you follow the road to the left and get into the valley itself.


There is an amazingly beautiful and high waterfall in Jeti-Oguz. You can get there either by foot and it will take for about 20-30 minutes, or you can ride a hourse. And I psomise the view that you will see on your way to the waterfall will take your breath away.
