Driving along the famous Lake Issyk-Kul through the town of Karakol

Exquisite interior of the cafe combined with large and appetizing portions of dishes and drinks.
There's a wi-fi.

To the next two points the road will be quite long, and there may be no cafes and restaurants on the way, so we advise to go to the market in Karakol or any supermarket/trading center to buy food for the trip.

Another very beautiful place is Jety-Oguz Gorge. There are red rocks in a row, which are called "seven bulls".
There's a rock in Jety-Ogus Gorge called "broken heart". There's a very romantic legend about her.
There was one very beautiful girl in the world, everyone wanted to marry her. Two dzhigits, who were friends with each other, decided to fight for her heart because the girl could not make a choice between them - she liked both of them very much. None of the young men survived the fight, and the girl realized that she was left to blame and that she would always be alone. And that's when she ripped her heart out of her chest, which became this very rock.
There is a belief that if two lovers stand under this rock, they will have eternal love.

Canyon "Fairy Tale" is a legendary place on the southern shore of Issyk-Kul.
The history of the canyon is very long - it began to form millions of years ago. Over time, stone sculptures were formed, in which tourists can see the outlines of animals or even fairy tale monsters, and various mazes of wide and narrow paths.
The best time to explore the canyon is on a bright day, when you can see more than ever. And the red clay shimmers magically in the sunlight.
In the summer there are often guided tours, but in the winter there is not a soul here. You can quietly walk around the territory, take pictures (no one will get in the frame :) ).

On the way you will meet a yurt, a traditional nomadic dwelling. Yurts are convenient for moving and keep warm well. However, for the nomads themselves, yurts mean much more than just a roof over their heads. It is a place of strength, a unification of family, land and universe.
And if you turn right on the dirt road, you will have a wonderful view of the lake. Stop here to take a little break and admire the surrounding scenery.

The restaurant is located on the shore of Lake Issyk-Kul.
Tourists advise to try different kinds of lepeshkas and boso lagman.

At the end of the evening, take a walk along one of the beaches of Lake Issyk-Kul. It's very quiet and romantic here.
You can catch the sunset and the landscape will be even more colorful.
