Marko polo Beach Manjyly Beach 4 Beach 1 3 6 2 4 5 TON Beach ・Ton ・Manjyly ・Kaji-Sai Panorama Skazka 5 1 Tuz-Kul Lake(Туздуу‐Көл) “Tuz-Kul”, a natural salt lake, known as the‘Dead Lake of Kyrgyzstan’, similar to the Dead Sea in Israel. Tuz-Kul was opened in 2001 as a new tourist destination. The water is so salty that one can easily read a newspaper while floating on the surface. The water contains about 132 grams of salt per liter making people so buoyant even non-swimmers feel safe. This lake is also popular as a ‘medical tour’. Mud is superheated deep beneath the earth’s surface and bubbles to the surface. Many locals believe that it has healing properties and enjoy taking mud baths. Come enjoy bathing the water, applied mud packs, and then clean off in the pure water of Issyk-Kul Lake, Located in 400 m away from the Tuz-Kul. ※ Entrance fee : 50 som ※ The mud is prohibited to bring back. How to get to Tuz-Kul Lake About 1.5 hours (40 km) from Bokonbaev village by taxi. (It’s best reached by taxi). Turn off before Kyzyl-Tuu village. 2 Tuura-Suu(Туура-Cуу) There are many stones with petroglyphs showing depictions of animals on the outskirts of Tuura-suu village. These types of petroglyphs and ancient symbols are quite famous so souvenirs are sometimes made with these patterns. How to get to Tuura-Suu About 25 min (10 km) from Bokonbaev village by taxi. 6 6 3 Manjyly-Ata(Манжылы-Ата) Manjyly-Ata also known as “the Sacred Valley” is a popular energy spot in Kyrgyzstan. It is well known locally as a holy place to pray for childbirth, peacefulness for families, and health, especially for nervous, digestive and respiratory systems. This place is also popular for people who have infertility difficulties and brings people from all around Kyrgyzstan. There are several springs in the fields that have each its particular usefulness. People drink from each spring and pray each place. The continuous hills look like a maze, and is said that if you look down from the top, it looks like a finger. Before entering the valley, people must purify themselves in Lake Issyk-Kul. If, for some reason they are unable to, a large vessel containing lake water has been installed at the entrance. Other precautions are also taken by visitors, women must cover their heads, and must also avoid wearing clothes which will expose any amount of leg, such as the knee-length skirts or shorts. ※ Time required : 2.5 hours. ※ Women are strongly recommended to bring a scarf to cover their heads. How to get to Manjyly-Ata About 15 min from Bokonbaev village by mini-bus and then a 10 minute-walk toward the mountain. Exit mini-bus between Kaji-Sai and Ton villages. There will be a sign that says ‘Manjyly-Ata’ 4 Panorama(Панорамa) About 2,800 m in height, the top of this attraction has a panoramic view of Lake Issyk-Kul. On especially clear and sunny days you can see the opposite shore’s mountains. You can also enjoy stunning views of the prairie sky and the bright green grasses growing on the nearby mountains and hills. In spring and summer, herds of cattle and sheep are commonly viewed, and alpine plants and flowers bloom in the surrounding area. ※ The time required : about 1.5 hours (round trip) 7 8 5 Boz-Salkyn(Боз-Cалкын) There is a famous Kyrgyz movie about "bride kidnaping" which was filmed and named after this place. Plateau and mountain views are wonderful, and Lake Issyk-Kul can be seen in the distance. It is recommended to spend the hours here trekking around the grass fields. In the summer time tourists are encouraged to stay the night in a yurt on the grassland. How to get Boz-Salkyn About 45 min (14 km) from Bokonbaev village by taxi. 6 Skazka(СКАЗКА) This area is called “Jomok” in Kyrgyz and “Skazka” in Russian, both of the means "fairy tales". There are fantastically shaped reddish sedimentary rocks. Commonly called “The Grand Canyon of Kyrgyzstan”, the Canyon immediately opens up in all its glory, not giving visitors a chance to gather their thoughts and expectations from previously seen wonders of the world. Observers are surrounded on all sides by unusual forms of multicolored sedimentary rock of the most brightly, contrasting hues. From soft rafts of colored soil, clusters protrude, plates of limestone and sandstone resembling the ruins of ancient castles or the skeletons of prehistoric monsters. Skazka Canyon doesn’t have its own legends coming from hoary antiquity. What is surprising though is that this wonder of nature only became known outside Issyk-Kul region of Kyrgyzstan a couple of years ago. The soft rocks of various hues, lying in a multitude of different layers, are very yielding to outside forces. After it has rained, the relief noticeably changes and the hues of the slopes of the canyon change strikingly under the effect of strong winds. Indeed, from morning till evening, the scenery will change every hour as the sun moves across the sky and casts its shadow on the earth. ※ The time required : 40 min. How to get to Skazka About 50 min (34 km) from Bokonbaev village by mini-bus. Walk to towards the mountain side about 2 km, there is a sign saying “СКАЗКА”.

  • Selected Works of Chokan Valikhanov Selected Works of Chokan Valikhanov
    SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV CHOKAN OF WORKS SELECTED SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV Pioneering Ethnographer and Historian of the Great Steppe When Chokan Valikhanov died of tuberculosis in 1865, aged only 29, the Russian academician Nikolai Veselovsky described his short life as ‘a meteor flashing across the field of oriental studies’. Set against his remarkable output of official reports, articles and research into the history, culture and ethnology of Central Asia, and more important, his Kazakh people, it remains an entirely appropriate accolade. Born in 1835 into a wealthy and powerful Kazakh clan, he was one of the first ‘people of the steppe’ to receive a Russian education and military training. Soon after graduating from Siberian Cadet Corps at Omsk, he was taking part in reconnaissance missions deep into regions of Central Asia that had seldom been visited by outsiders. His famous mission to Kashgar in Chinese Turkestan, which began in June 1858 and lasted for more than a year, saw him in disguise as a Tashkent mer- chant, risking his life to gather vital information not just on current events, but also on the ethnic make-up, geography, flora and fauna of this unknown region. Journeys to Kuldzha, to Issyk-Kol and to other remote and unmapped places quickly established his reputation, even though he al- ways remained inorodets – an outsider to the Russian establishment. Nonetheless, he was elected to membership of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society and spent time in St Petersburg, where he was given a private audience by the Tsar. Wherever he went he made his mark, striking up strong and lasting friendships with the likes of the great Russian explorer and geographer Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov-Tian-Shansky and the writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

    Studia z Dziejów Rosji i Europy Ś rodkowo-Wschodniej ■ LII-SI(2) Bartłomiej Gajos Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences Centre for Polish-Russian Dialogue and Understanding The Fiftieth Anniversary of the October Revolution (1967) – a Generational Turnover and the Politics of Memory of the USSR* Zarys treści: Obchody 50. rocznicy rewolucji październikowej zademonstrowały istotne zmiany polityki historycznej KPZS. Wydarzenia, które rozegrały się w Piotrogrodzie, i wokół których koncentrowała się pamięć społeczna przez ostatnie półwiecze, nie posiadały w latach sześćdzie- siątych tak silnego wymiaru symbolicznego, zdolnego mobilizować społeczeństwo do realizacji celów stawianych przez partię komunistyczną, takich jak Wielka Wojna Ojczyźniana. Rewolucja październikowa w chwili reaktywacji ofi cjalnego święta Dnia Zwycięstwa w 1965 r. zaczęła tracić swój centralny status w pamięci społecznej w Związku Sowieckim. Outline of content: Th e celebrations of the fi ft ieth anniversary of the October Revolution revealed signifi cant changes in politics of memory of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Th e events which took place in Petrograd and on which social memory had focused for last fi ft y years, did not have in the 1960s such a strong symbolic impact, being able to mobilise the people to achieve goals set by the Communist Party as the Great Patriotic War. From the time of reactivation of the offi cial celebrations of the Victory Day in 1965 the October Revolution began gradually to diminish in importance and lose its central place in collective memory of the Soviet people. Słowa kluczowe: rewolucja październikowa 1917, Leonid Breżniew, radziecka polityka historyczna, KPZS, Wielka Wojna Ojczyźniana Keywords: October Revolution 1917, Leonid Brezhnev, Soviet politics of history, Communist Part of the Soviet Union, Great Patriotic War * Th is article was fi nanced from the budgetary funds assigned for research in 2015–2019 within the framework of the Diamond Grant Programme (project ID: DI2014008844).
