Alamüdün District: Kashka Suu Ski Resort

Chuy Region has served as a cultural crossroads within present-day Kyrgyzstan since the medieval era. Its broad Chuy Valley follows the Chu River along the northern foothills of the Kyrgyz Ala-Too, where irrigated farmland and settlements contrast with the mountains south of Bishkek. Near Tokmok, the Burana Tower is the surviving minaret of Balasagun, a major medieval Silk Road city; its archaeological complex links the valley to the Karakhanid period. Bishkek lies within the valley but is administratively separate from the region. Open plains and transport links make this one of Kyrgyzstan’s principal routes towards Kazakhstan.
