    We could have bought pretty much everything Tumar had to offer! We were like kids in a candy store! The beautifully handcrafted scarves, wool shoes, bags, garments, journal covers, decorations and lovely staff. The prices seemed very reasonable and the craftsmanship exquisite. We made off with a gorgeous large wool backpack, a wool and cotton scarf and a wool journal set. Next time I go back to Bishkek, I'm bringing a larger bag!

    So many cool things to be found in this art shop. Almost everything I looked at I was impressed with. Definitely a good place to visit, especially if you are looking for unique ethnic souvenirs. They have all sorts of original handmade goods. Also, it's a great chance to support local business. 😃🙌
    P.S. You will be pleasantly surprised with prices and service quality.

    Lots of felt hats and accessories, some jewelry, pottery, and other handicrafts. Prices seemed very high.

    Probably the best shop in Bishkek for picking up quality souvenirs. It has a small English book section as well. Great offerings for kids but check out the prints on the walls--unique, high quality and surprisingly affordable.

    This is the best bookstore in Bishkek and is a branch of the Raritet shops here. It is the best one, and is on Chuy. It has a wide selection of books for adults, children, and in multiple languages, as well as a selection for teachers. You should know some Russian to shop here, but you won't be disappointed. It is air conditioned. Since there are lots of stairs, it is not handicapped friendly. The staff do try in every way to help you find what you are looking for. The children's department is on the ground (first) floor, while the adult department is on the second floor, and the teachers department is on the lower (zero) floor. You will probably want to spend a lot of money while you are here.
