Kyrgyz elders sitting in a yurt at the Kyrchyn cultural festival as part of the World Nomad Games 2016 in Kyrgyzstan.
The Nomad Universe held at Kyrchyn Jailoo included over 300 yurts, but we thought this one from the Issyk-Kul area was the most beautiful of them all. World Nomad Games, Kyrgyzstan.
A family adopted us when we entered the Kyrchyn Nomad Universe cultural village and invited us to share delicious bowls of Ashlan-fu, a specialty noodle dish from Karakol, with them. World Nomad Games, Kyrgyzstan.
