Flora of Kyrgyzstan
Flora... is such an amazing sphere of life in the world that can be investigated for many years and years. That is why we would like to pay greater attention to flora life of Kyrgyzstan, able to be seen in the course of tour, often on cars for rent. It is rich here, and offers the view of many amazing plants at the territory of the country.
That is why rented cars are offered to be taken and we are able to have a ride along the steppes, meadow-steppes, and meadows. This means the viewing of bushes and forests, the trip to which we are ready to organize the journey. Climate of Kyrgyzstan is continental, dry, but it changes with the altitudes. High in the mountains climate can be seen more herbal and clean.
For today it is possible to travel along the country and get to see about 4000 kinds of plants, growing high in the mountains. Basically they can be freely found close to the capital of the country, in the Ala Archa gorge. At the same time out of this amount, about 600 plants are wild ones, with 200 being medical ones. Among all of them we can view coltsfoot, sea buckthorn, St John's wort, horsetail, Turkestan thermopsis and origanum, tulips and edelweiss, Siberian fir, Schrenk's fir, and juniper.
Rather often guests have a chance to get to see the opportunity of immersing in nature, while the tour made along the mountains of the country, or walking in the famous walnut forest Arslanbob. The forest is based in the Jalal Abad region, where wild apple, cherry trees, and pear trees grow. It is interesting also from the point of view of legends, as one telling of Alexander the Great visiting these places in the past times. And today you can travel here and see the same sites, but with the modern view.
