Asia Travelers    
 

Kyrgyzstan might lack in cultural heritage, but the natural beauty can be overwhelming. Kyrgyzstan may not have a long settled history, but it has all the natural beauty to make up for that. Furthermore the people are very friendly and helpful. This makes traveling in Kyrgyzstan relatively easy. It contains the central Tian Shan and Pamir Alay ranges, Central Asia's finest mountains, and it's doing more than any of its neighbors to encourage tourism and streamline bureaucratic procedures for visitors - partly because tourism is one of the few things it has to sell to the outside world. The snow-covered peaks of Tian Shan march along the southeastern border, delivering breathtaking views and great opportunities for adventure. Though few people are aware of it, Kyrgyzstan has skiing and mountaineering possibilities to match the best of 'em - the only difference is that there are fewer tourists (and, understandably, less tourist facilities). Bishkek the capital is a green and friendly city. It is the travel hub and the best starting place to explore the country. You can visit the Ala Archa Gorge as an easy day trip from there. Osh and Naryn are further away.

Passport required by all. VISAS: Required by all except the following: nationals of CIS countries (except Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan); nationals of Turkey for stays of up to 30 days; nationals of any country for a stay of up to three days, provided holding a visa for another CIS country; nationals (provided they are permanent residents of their country) of Bulgaria, Cuba, Czech Republic, Hungary, Korea (Dem Rep), Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Vietnam travelling as tourists; transit passengers continuing their journey by the same or first connecting aircraft within 48 hours, provided holding onward or return documentation and not leaving airport.
