The surrounding At-Bashy mountain range stretches for around 100 miles, with peaks over 15,000 feet. At-Bashy village, on the northern side of the range, has a population of 10,000 people, not far from which lie verdant pine forests and mineral springs.

Perched on a ridge overlooking At-Bashy town is an evocative cemetery. Though cemetery visits may not be everyone’s thing, this prominent feature is sure to shed some insight into the local culture.
On Sundays, visitors can have the chance to visit one of Central Asia’s largest livestock bazaars - if they can stand the smell!
