Visit Burana Tower that is almost 1000 years old. See the architecture and style of the tower that was made between 9-11 centuries and still existing.
People think it's just a usual tower, but it has a long history. People can't determine exactly in what century it was built, however by different versions it was believed to be built between 9-11 centuries, a place where Karahanid empire had lived. It was one of the main stops on the Silk Road and you can see different finds in the museum.

Ala Archa National Park is one of those must-visit spots in Kyrgyzstan, and this day trip nicely pairs it with a meal at the home of a truly hospitable local family. Aidana, meanwhile, is a great guide who answered my countless questions about the country – encountering a female tour guide on my solo travels was just a bonus!
Lovely and flexible ,, knowledgeable and fun
Aidana was very cool and told us a lot about Bishkek and it’s history. Also showed some interesting buildings. And many thanks for souvenir shop with some unique stylish Kyrgyz souvenirs.
