[Kyrgyzstan🇰🇬 Tamga] A Swiss-like mountain and lake town with resort facilities🏞️

Be sure to visit Tamga, a minor town in Kyrgyzstan that is not well known to foreign tourists.

💡 Recommended points
① Lake Issyk-Kul near Tamga has very high transparency
② You can see beautiful mountains 🏔️
③ There is a resort facility called the sanatorium

As you can see in the photos of Lake Issyk-Kul (3rd to 5th photos), the transparency of the lake, which allows you to see the bottom of the lake clearly, was amazing.

Apparently astronaut Gagarin also visited the sanatorium. Japanese people were also involved in the construction of the building.

When I used the sanatorium, I could hardly understand English, so I communicated with a translation app and simple Russian.

Lake Issyk-Kul is a little far from the town of Tamga, but it can be reached on foot.

📍 Location: Tamga, Kyrgyzstan

🚍️ Access: About 2 hours by marshrutka (shared bus) from Karakol
