SUMMER AND WINTER TOURS IN SOUTHERN KYRGYZSTAN

Summer and Winter Tours in Nomad Land .

In the region in Southern Kyrgyzstan which till 1917 (when Soviets took power and created USSR) was accessible only for 3- summer months. (When mountain passes were free of the snow )

And after Soviets took power in that region ,it was forbidden for other citizens of USSR to visit it. (There was a political reason behind that decision)

Kyrgyz Nomads were forced to stay in that region. And ( it is probably The Only example in the Former USSR) people were encouraged by the state to live as the Nomads.

(In other parts of Kyrgyzstan and USSR Nomads were forced to

abandon their traditional ways of life .

It has become the main reason of assimilation and disappearance of many small ethnic groups in the Soviet North and Far East ).

From 1917-1922 till 1991(when USSR collapsed ) that region was closed by the Soviet government and that's why ONLY THERE Kyrgyz Nomads preserved their Cultural identity.

Only in 2012 ,when Kyrgyzstan made a visa-free entry for citizens of 44 countries,tourists were allowed to enter that region

I took first ever tourists to that region,called Nomad Land in 2012. They were Italians and French.

I vividly remember the disbelief in the eyes of American tourists ( Whom I took to Nomad Land in 2017) When I said to them that they will be FIRST ever foreigners in this Nomad summer village!

Then ( we were having a meal in the tent ) I said to Americans " Have a look outside ".

The WHOLE Nomad village were sitting outside and were staring, in the utter disbelief at the tent.

I said to Americans " Now you believe? ".

And they did!

Region called Nomad Land in southern. Kyrgyzstan ?

1).It was never visited by the Asian,African,Australian,Arab, Latin American tourists .

Choosing the right guide to Kyrgyzstan mountains

Guiding in the Kyrgyzstan mountains is the responsible thing

It is a must for the guide to the Kyrgyzstan mountains to know the Kyrgyz language and mentality of the people living in the mountains because:

In the mountainous regions of Kyrgyzstan,and especially in the South,

where I was born. The population is 100% the Kyrgyz.

It is the male dominated society where the Russian language is of no use.

Simply because no Russian ever lived there.

And the Kyrgyz living in mountains never needed Russian language

Therefore it is a must to have the male Kyrgyz guide speaking fluent Kyrgyz

Familiar with the Nomad mentality

Otherwise you will not be able to talk to the Nomads.

Learn their life,traditions,customs etc.

Or without knowing their mentality unintentionally offend them

Especially if they use High Text Culture

High Text Culture of Kyrgyz Nomads.

In the only place in Kyrgyzstan,where I take tourists to

There is something ,which is called the high text culture

I am a Kyrgyz myself,but there were moments when I failed to understand the high text culture,

when Ak-sakals (Old respected Nomads),were using it.

It is very different of the culture of the Kyrgyz elsewhere (except the Kyrgyz living in the Afganistan)

Guide and Kyrgyz Nomad Cuisine

If a guide never cooked and tasted Kyrgyz Nomad meals, how can he explain to you, what it is?

Kyrgyz Nomad Cuisine is a product of thousand years of selectionning the healthy ingredients!

You will have a chance not only to taste the Kyrgyz Nomad meals which have centuries old recipies, but also help to cook them!

Learning to cook Kyrgyz Nomad meal-Kuymak

Thousand Years old Kyrgyz Nomad Culture is disappearing

In one generation there will be not the pure Nomads left in Kyrgyzstan...

The Nomads migrating from Nomad Land en mass

At least 30% of them have migrated!

A sad reality of the poor economics ( no jobs,no government support,no discount prices for the goods and services etc.)

In a word the government almost forgot the Nomads!

And the Nomads are leaving their homeland,searching for better life.

In one generation there will be not the pure real Nomads left...

NOMAD CULTURE, THOUSAND YEARS OLD TRADITIONS, CUISINE, HISTORY ETC. WILL BE LOST FOREVER. ..

(As an example one can take the Afgan Kyrgyz Nomads living in Wakhan corridor.

They just disappearing due to diseases,very harsh climate,war.Only couple of thousands of them are left.)

AND THEIR CULTURE DISAPPEARING

Your children and grandchildren perhaps will not have a chance to meet the pure Nomads in the Nomad Land and see with their own eyes ,how the Tribal Law works...

I have been trying to introduce tourism into tne Nomads life and give additional income to the Nomads,who are my brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles

My own uncle ıs a head of the trıbe '' Börü'' which means- the Mountainous Wolf

and I am next ın lıne to succeed hım.

Though I have to admit I am not up to this job.

Well,I guess now you have some understanding about the Southern Kyrgyzstan, the Nomad Land,about me,my tours

Thank you very much for your attention!

And Welcome to Kyrgyzstan! To Nomad Land!
