Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked country in Central Asia, bordered by Kazakhstan to the north, Uzbekistan to the west, Tajikistan to the south, and China to the east. Its capital and largest city is Bishkek.

Known for its stunning natural landscapes, Kyrgyzstan is home to soaring mountains, deep valleys, and alpine lakes, including the famous Lake Issyk-Kul, one of the largest and deepest lakes in the world. The country is often referred to as the “Switzerland of Central Asia” due to its mountainous terrain.

Kyrgyzstan has a rich nomadic heritage, with traditions such as horseback riding, felt-making, and living in yurts still practiced today. The Kyrgyz people primarily speak the Kyrgyz language, with Russian also widely used.
