On the doorstep of Issyk-Kul Lake, Karakol is essentially the Queenstown, NZ of Kyrgyzstan! Or let’s say Queenstown is the Karakol of New Zealand. An epic ski resort in winter and a summer hotspot for swimming and hiking, Karakol has it all no matter what time of year. Always a lot going on! #kyrgyzstan #kyrgyzrepublic #nature #views
