Issyk Kull-innsjøen

August 2013 
Kaji Say, Issyk-kul Lake, Kyrgyzstan 

Issyk Kul is an endorheic (i.e. inflow only) lake in eastern Kyrgyzstan. It is the tenth largest lake in the world by volume (though not in surface area), and the second largest saline lake after the Caspian Sea and the second largest mountain lake after Titicaca. Although it is surrounded by snowy peaks, it never freezes hence its name, which means "hot lake" in the Kyrgyz language. It is some 180 km long and 60 km wide, up to 600 meters deep and located in altitude ca. 1.600 meters, very popular for recreation, mainly in resorts on its north shore. Kaji Say is on south shore and more calm and relaxed place. The mountains in picture are Terskey Alatau range of Northern Tian Shan. The lake has some 20 percent salinity compared to oceans. However an ocean for Kyrgyz for sure.

Right before the horse games begon, this cute kid arrived at the playground. We learned some great traditions and it is amazing to see how these kids handle those horses.
