Journey notes

About this Journey

Last moments on the shore of Issyk Kul, we meet with a yurt maker and their workshops.
We then leave the region of Issyk Kul and reach the city of Kochkor, where we meet the managers of the city's women's felt cooperative, an association of more than 120 women. With them, you will discover all the secrets of making Shyrdaks, the Kyrgyz felt carpets listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
