Kyrgyzstan is known for its snowy mountains, virgin nature, culture, and especially for its amazing lake, Issyk Kul. The beautiful Lake Issyk Kul is completely ringed by the massive snow-capped Tien Shan Mountains, 3000-4000m in height.
Enclosed on all sides by the snowy peaks of the Tien Shan Mountains, Lake Issyk Kul, literally meaning “hot lake”, is said to be the world’s second-largest alpine lake or the second highest navigable lake in the world after Lake Titicaca in South America. The lake never freezes even in the depths of winter due to thermal activity, strong winds, physics of deep water and the unique microclimate over the lake. Called "The Pearl of Central Asia", the lake changes colour from pale green to turquoise blue, depending on the time of day and the position of the sun. The crystal clear water has so exceptional a blue colour, that it is three to four times more saturated by colour than Lake Geneva in Switzerland.
Anyone would be astonished at the size and scenery of huge celestial snow-capped mountain peaks shining from across from what must be one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. The area around the lake is well known to locals and tourists from Kazakhstan and Russia for its beautiful, sandy shores. Most of the resorts and hotels are on the north shore of the lake.
If you want to have an unforgettable summer on the clearest and healthiest shores of Central Asia, you should come to Issyk Kul.
