3DAYS & 4NIGHTS IN KYRGYZSTAN (DAY 2)

After our rafting activity at Chu River, we continued our road trip for 2hours going to Cholpon Ata.
We had one night stay at Apple Hostel inCholpon Ata,  (which is home near to marvelous Issy-Kul Lake.)

Apple Hostel, Cholpon Ata location near to the major attractions, plus easy access to beach and supermarket in town. Apple Hostel staff were so helpful and they served fresh food.

They have a nice pavilion for chilling out and we met cool travelers from Germany and USA, ask them to join us for Karaoke and drinks!
(Hostel does not own any Karaoke machine, we brought a wireless bluetooth karaoke microphone/ speaker handle mic from Dubai)
Since it getting late night and neighbors might complaint for being so loud, we decided to head to the Issyuk Kul beach shore which is 15mins walk from the hostel to continue the enjoyment.

Other things to do nearby: hiking, horse-riding, eagle-hunting, hot springs, swimming in the lake.

Cultural Center Ruh Ordo
June 24- Morning visited Cultural Center Ruh Ordo walking distance from Apple Hostel.
This place is beautiful in its simplicity with a pleasant open air park displays statesmen, philosophers, Greek gods/goddesses and Kyrgyzstan writer. 
This cultural center offers an insight into one of the five major religions Judaism, Islam, Orthodox, Catholic and Buddhism.

Things to do around Cholpon Ata

  • Historical museum - displays natural and cultural history of the region from pre-historic and modern times. 
  • Issyk Kul lake -  biggest lake in Kyrgyzstan (located east in Kyrgyzstan, north part of Tian Shan mountains) with its 170km long, 70km across the second largest alpine in the world. The name means "Hot Lake" because of extreme depth, thermal activity and mild salinity the lake never freezes, even if its attitude is more than 1600meter.  
  • Cholpon Ata bazaar 
  • Petroglyphs - a typical collection of stone carvings. 
  • Eagle Hunting - must arrange bookings. 

Headed to Hot springs at Chon Oruktu (north coast of Issyk-kul lake), temperature of water 48C. The hot springs resort was not yet fully develop, few cottages are available and it has a great view of the mountain.

We supposed to stop at Pravoslavik Church/Dungan Mosque in Karakol – but we decided not to go, cause the time was not enough and we did so many stops along the road just to take a great landscape pictures.  We only visited Local Bazaar in Karakol instead, bought some foods,beer and vodka 😊😊 for that night celebration at Kok Jaiyk Yurt camp.
