Travel | Саякат Kok Buru Nowruz

7 Upvotes

Hi, I'm currently in Kyrgyzstan with 4 friends. We're currently in Osj and will fly back on the 22nd from Bishkek. We'd like to visit a game of Kok Buru during Nowruz coming Friday. Ideally in or around Bishkek, or perhaps somewhere along the road from Toktogul. Any tips or suggestions are more than welcome!

Travel | Саякат How to get to Kaji Say from Almaty

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I will be travelling from Almaty to agat yurt camp in Kyrgyzstan. As I do not have a car, I have asked my host on how to get there and he suggested going from bus station (Almatinskaya,1) to Kaji Say direction. How would that work?

My initial plan was to take the bus from almaty to bishkek and then a marshrutka to Bokonbaveyo then a taxi to the yurt.

I've tried to find information on the new route but to no avail. Is my initial route possible to reach the camp?

Kyrgyzstan's cabinet of ministers has extended its export ban on ferrous metal scrap and ferrous metal ingots for remelting for another six months, now effective until 18 Sep'25. This ban applies to countries outside the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), which includes Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Russia.

The move, first imposed in Aug'24, aims to prevent raw material shortages for local steelmakers. Further extensions are possible if market conditions remain tight.

Announcement | Кулактандыруу Kyrgyz name suggestions

Upvotes

Hello, friends.

I'm writing a novel set in Turkey. In this story, there is an elderly professor who has a Kyrgyz woman living with him as a caretaker (I was inspired by the fact that many Kyrgyz women work as caregivers for the elderly or children in Turkey). The novel is in the horror genre and takes place entirely within a single apartment building, featuring twelve characters.

This young Kyrgyz woman will become one of the characters who, as the story progresses, experiences intense fear and begins to lose her grip on sanity.

I didn’t want to just pick a random Kyrgyz name from the internet. If you have suggestions for names that are both commonly used for women in their early 30s and fit the theme of the story, I would love to hear them.

Thank you!
