What travellers are saying
- mrc282World9,129 contributionsVisited on a drizzly weekend, so the mountains were slightly obscured by clouds
For the casual visitor, half day is sufficient. This is what I did or about 2-3 hours before heading over to Chunkurchak Valley
Vantage point Ala Archa Valley 42.556049, 74.492556
- Steep hike on dirt path to a viewpoint overlooking the valley, 15-20 min each way, better with trekking poles, a must with good shoes
Ala Archa River Valley Bed
42.549980, 74.487190
- Flat and sometimes undulating walk on paved path, along a raging river, most common trail for park visitors
There are more places to visit, but they require longer hike or overnight stay
Entrance fee for car is 700 kgs. Must bring exact cash or worse case, the park officer will pull out a card machine (very reluctantly)Written 18 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You would think they cordon off better, but no, there are pedestrian footprints on wet cement, and I almost contribute another one
Will be back in a couple of weeks and hopefully see a change. Hearsay, the remodeling is to build a more fancy fountain, similar to those you see in DubaiWritten 18 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It had a nice little fairground in the centre with a big red ferris wheel in the centre.
Sone lovely statuary and plentybof benches to sit in and escape the summer heat.
Very nice place, I stopped by here on both my days in Bishkek to relax. The ferris wheel offers great views of the city by the way.Written 21 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Cinema, restaurant, fast food and even a super market as well as your standard phone shops
A few 'side/table' shops where you can get more tourist items!
Would recommend to come, and could easily spend a day hereWritten 26 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The place is amazing and you can relax here for easily 4-5 hours. You either bring your own chairs/mat or rent from the many locals who offer areas to sit and chill. We rented the place for 4 hours and it was infront of the river. You can see the horses all around, eating grass, crossing the river and so on. Beautiful place to relax.Written 1 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MumbaiRidersMumbai, India1,870 contributionsIn 2011 the statue statue of the great hero Manas the Magnanimous was installed to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the independence of Kyrgyzstan. The height of the Statue of Manas with the pedestal is 17 m and 55 cm. It is a bronze statue depicting the national Hero Manas on horseback and next to the statue is the official flagpole of Kyrgyz Republic which was removed during my visit as construction work was in progress on the large ground in front of the Statue of Manas.Landmark Kyrgyz State History museum is in the background of the equestrian statue of Manas on Ala-Too Square.Written 2 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Elena WGeneva, Switzerland4 contributionsWalking in the mountains is very enjoyable and healing. The hot baths are an experience of their own as well, despite the somewhat neglected service and old-fashined "Soviet" style facilities. It was still a very very nice experience, i'd recommend to anyone.
Budda stone, old sanatorium, three hot baths (one of them is said to be with radonium, attention), and unspeakably beautiful mountains. Something to remember for sure.Written 7 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The central figure is that of a mother standing awaiting her loved ones who have gone off to war. She is standing under a Tunduk, excuse my spelling as I don't know it, the centrepiece of a yurt.
It's set in a massive open square.
Well worth a visit, a really impressive Monument.Written 21 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It's very beautiful, especially in winter. It's not just snow, but actual forest. Some tracks though can be dangerous because of the vegetation so keep that in mind. Resort itself is very cheap.Written 12 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Reading & RamblingBishkek, Kyrgyzstan100 contributionsAlot in the mall, from phone shops, to books, to home items, makeup, clothes and a cinema!
There is also a few fast food options to enjoy and indulge!

Lot of history in a relatively short period of time.
These folks appreciate freedom.Written 8 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Its luke an open air museum really with statuary and artworks dotted around as you wander. The stately trees offer merciful shade on a hot day and the Park has lots of benches for you to sit on and relax
I loved the statues, and I dare say there'll be something for everyone snongst them.
A short walk from the Parliament, Ala-Too Square and Panfilov Park.Written 21 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
