Kyrgyzstan is a country with an ancient nomadic history and rich culture. Kyrgyz always lived in close contact with nature since they were nomadic people. From the housing to clothing, everything was adapted to change the pastures. Animals took the important part in nomadic life and culture as well. For instance, horses served as a vehicle, helpers during the war, and also meat and milk. Some musical instruments were specially made in such a way that they could be played while riding a horse. If you want to see it all and more, then this Nomadic Tour is right for you! A trip to the mountains is a great opportunity to immerse you in a unique nomadic civilization and explore its amazing world.
