Kyrgyzstan
Kyrgyzstan is an impoverished ex Soviet country, since August 31, 1991. It is located on the east side of central Asia, bordering China. Mile upon mile of unspoilt Alpine esque mountains interspersed with icy lakes, yurt studded green summer pastures and towns and cities far apart make Kyrgyzstan a trekkers and campers paradise. Although the season is short because of heavy snowfall blocking many roads and passes for much of the year, Kyrgyzstan can be a tourists choice for its value for money, relative ease of obtaining a tourist visa and most importantly for some, a cutting edge travel experience.
