Kyrgyzstan - nomads |
Kyrgyzstan and Tadjikistan with their complex relief are home to many different ethnic groups who have become intermixed. These Kyrgyzstan nomads now live in Tadjikistan, in the heart of the Muzkol Pamir. Their felt tent (yurt) is only their summer shelter, in winter they move to the small settlement of Karakol, beside Lake Karakol, a great blue lake set in a desert mountain wilderness. |
