Ethno Village and Manaschi - Kyrgyzstan 4K Travel Channel
Between the bank of Issyk-Kul and the road to Karakol, we come across a fenced area. Its purpose is not obvious at first glance.
One might think, that the buildings are remnants of the Soviet era, but that is not the case. These are the remains of a planned Ethno village, planned around the turn of the millennium. Unfortunately, the investor ran out of money.
Since then, the complex decays. A drone flight over the terrain shows the true dimensions of the complex.
Beyond the road, are already the foothill of the Tian Shan Mountains. The statue of a manaschi sits enthroned on one of the hills.
Manaschis are people who pass on the Epic of Manas by word of mouth, over centuries.
The Epic of Manas is the most important work of classical Kyrgyz literature. It is about the fight of the mythical popular hero Manas against the Uyghurs. It covers 500,000 verses. Only in 1885, one wrote down the first version. Today there are around 65 different versions of the work. Manas was said to have been born and buried in the city of Talas. The mausoleum was probably built in 1334.
In 2013, the Epic of Manas was included in UNESCO's List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Zwischen dem Ufer des Yssykköl und der Straße nach Karakol liegt ein eingezäuntes Gelände. Der Verwendungszweck ist auf den ersten Blick nicht zu erkennen.
Oft werden die Bauwerke für Überreste aus der Sowjetzeit gehalten, dem ist aber nicht so. Es sind die Überreste eines geplanten Ethno-Dorfes, das um die Jahrtausendwende geplant wurde. Leider ging dem Investor dann aber das Geld aus.
Seither verrotten die Anlagen. Ein Flug mit der Drohne über das Gelände zeigt die wahren Dimensionen des Geländes.
Hinter der Straße geht das Gelände in ein hügeliges Vorland des Tian Shan Gebirges über. Auf einem dieser Hügel sitzt die Figur eines Manastschi.
Das sind jene Menschen, die über Jahrhunderte mündlich das Manas Epos übermittelt haben.
Das Manas Epos ist ist das wichtigste Werk der klassischen kirgisischen Literatur. Es handelt vom Kampf des mythischen Volkshelden Manas gegen die Uiguren. Es umfasst 500.000 Verse. Erst 1885 wurde eine erste Version schriftlich niedergelegt. Heute existieren rund 65 verschiedene Versionen des Werks. Manas soll in der Stadt Talas geboren und beerdigt worden sein. Das Mausoleum wurde vermutlich 1334 errichtet.
Das Manas Epos wurde 2013 in die Repräsentative Liste des Immateriellen Kulturerbes der Menschheit der UNESCO aufgenommen.

Przhevalsky Museum Tour - Kyrgyzstan 4K Travel Channel
Only 10 km northwest of Karakol, on the banks of the Yssyk-Kul, lies the Przhevalsky Memorial Park. Here is the grave of Przhevalsky as well as a monument and a museum to his honors.
Nikolai Mikhailovich Przhevalsky, often named after the Polish spelling Przewalski, was an officer of the Tsar. His outstanding contributions to the study of Central Asia made him an active member of the Russian Geographical Society and a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Between 1867 and 1888, one sent him to the Yssyk- Kul region as well as four times to China, Mongolia, and Tibet. He should find a shortcut to Tibet. Przhevalsky brought back many informative data that helped the Zar Nikolai II at its policy of expansion. In Tibet, he met the Dalai Lama.
During the preparations for an expedition to Tibet in 1988, Przhevalsky died of typhoid fever in Karakol. He was buried on the shore of the Yssyk-Kul. His monument, that allegedly shows in the direction of Lhasa in Tibet, is marked by an eagle with a branch and a map of Central Asia.
We start our tour of the Przhevsky Museum. The researcher receives us in a large painting. In a small adjoining room, a ceramic relief map shows the routes of his expeditions, which took him through large parts of China and Mongolia.
He repeatedly reported sightings of wild horses until he brought along the skull and skin of a wild horse from one of his expeditions and had it scientifically described. This breed went down in history as Przewalski horses. Today we know that these were not pure wild horses, but descends from the domesticated horses of the Botai. The Botai horses have domesticated already 5500 years ago in Kazakhstan.
As we had lived 30 years in Munich, we know the Przewalski horse for a long time. In the Hellabrunn Zoo, one rears the Przewalski horses and returns them to the wild in Mongolia. After the stock had fallen to 40 horses worldwide, today it is again more than 2000 animals. The breeding takes place in different zoos. Best known for this is the Prague Zoo.
The museum in Karakol exhibits many animal preparations of Central Asian wildlife and many original photographs, drawings, documents and scientific equipment from that time.
We go on to Przhevalsky monument and to its grave. One has a beautiful view of the Yssyk-Kul from here.

Knapp 10 km nordwestlich von Karakol, am Ufer des Yssykköl liegt der Przhevalsky Gedenkpark. Er beinhaltet das Grab von Prschewalski und ein Denkmal und ein Museum zu seinen Ehren.
Nikolai Michailowitsch Prschewalski, oft auch nach der polnischen Schreibweise Przewalski genannt, war Offizier des Zaren. Seine hervorragenden Beiträge zur Erforschung Zentralasiens machten ihn zum aktiven Mitglied der Russischen Geographischen Gesellschaft und Mitglied der Russischen Akademie der Wissenschaften.
Zwischen 1867 und 1888, entsandte man ihn in die Yssykköl Region und viermal nach China, in die Mongolei und nach Tibet. Er sollte einen kurzen Weg nach Tibet finden. Prschewalski brachte viele informative Daten mit, die dem Zar Nikolai II bei seiner Expansionspolitik halfen. In Tibet traf er den Dalai Lama.
1888, während der Vorbereitungen einer Expedition nach Tibet, starb Przhevalsky in Karakol an Typhus. Er wurde am Ufer des Yssykköl begraben. Sein Denkmal, das angeblich nach Lhasa in Tibet ausgerichtet ist, wird von einem Adler mit einem Zweig und einer Karte Zentralasiens markiert.
Wir beginnen unseren Rundgang im Prschewalski Museum. Auf einem großen Gemälde empfängt uns der Forscher. In einem kleinen Nebenraum zeigt eine keramische Reliefkarte die Routen seiner Expeditionen, die ihn durch weite Teile Chinas und der Mongolei führten.
Mehrfach berichtete er von Sichtungen von Wildpferden, bis er von einer seiner Expeditionen den Schädel und die Haut eines Wildpferdes mitbrachte und wissenschaftlich beschreiben ließ. Diese Rasse ging als Przewalski Pferde in die Geschichte ein. Heute wissen wir, dass dies keine reinen Wildpferde waren, sondern Verwilderungen des vor 5500 Jahren domestizierten Botai Pferdes in Kasachstan ist.
Uns ist das Przewalski Pferd schon lange bekannt, da wir 30 Jahre in München gelebt haben. Im dortigen Tierpark Hellabrunn werden Przewalski Pferde zurück gezüchtet und in der Mongolei wieder ausgewildert. Nachdem der Bestand auf unter 40 Pferde weltweit gefallen war, beträgt er heute wieder mehr als 2000 Tiere. Die Rückzüchtung findet in verschiedenen Zoos statt. Am bekanntesten dafür ist der Prager Zoo.
Das Museum in Karakol beinhaltet viele Tierpräparate der zentralasiatischen Tierwelt und viele Original Fotografien, Zeichnungen, Dokumente und wissenschaftliche Geräte aus jener Zeit.
Wir gehen weiter zu Prschewalski Denkmal und zu seinem Grab. Von hier aus hat man einen schönen Ausblick auf den Yssykköl.

We drove from Almaty to Taraz in May, it was our first road trip in Kazakhstan. It was quite warm, and it was absolutely beautiful. Be sure to pack all you need before you hit the road, anything from food, water, tissue, hand sanitizer etc. since it might be really hard to find them on the way. Also, beware of all the speed limit, it can change from 80 to 20 within a hundre meters, and there might be road police nearby. So be very careful! If they do catch you though, don't overpay your fine. ;)

Epic of Manas
The Epic of Manas is a traditional epic poem of the Kyrgyz people. Manas is the name of the epic's hero. One recording of the orally transmitted poem, with close to half a million lines, is twenty times longer than Homer's Odyssey and Iliad combined, or about twice as long as the Mahabharata. The epic tells the story of Manas, his descendants and his followers. Battles against Kitay and Kalmak enemies form a central theme in the epic. Although the epic is mentioned as early as the 15th century, it was not set down in written form until 1885. Different opinions abound regarding the origin of the epic: the 7th—10th centuries, the 11th and 12th centuries and the 15th through 18th centuries.
Manas is the classic centerpiece of Kyrgyz literature, and parts of it are often recited at Kyrgyz festivities by specialists in the epic, called Manaschi (Kyrgyz: Манасчы). Manaschis are usually called to their profession in a dream. In this dream, they meet Manas or other characters from the epic, who tell them to become Manas narrators. If they do not obey, they believe they will fall ill or become crippled. Manaschis tell the tale in a melodic chant unaccompanied by musical instruments.
Kyrgyzstan has many Manaschis. Narrators who know all three episodes of the epic (the tales of Manas, of his son Semetei and of his grandson Seitek) can acquire the status of Great Manaschi. Great Manaschis of the 20th century are Sagimbai Orozbakov, Sayakbai Karalayev, Shaabai Azizov (in the picture), Kaba Atabekov, Seidene Moldokova and Yusup Mamai. A revered Manaschi who recently visited the United Kingdom is Rysbek Jumabayev. Urkash Mambetaliev, the Manaschi of the Bishkek Philharmonic, also travels through Europe. A younger Manaschi, Talantaaly Bakchiyev, combines narrating with being a Manas scholar.
There are more than 65 written versions of parts of the epic. An English translation of the version of Sagimbai Orozbakov by Walter May was published in 1995, in commemoration of the presumed 1000th anniversary of Manas' birth, and re-issued in two volumes in 2004. Arthur Hatto has made English translations of the Manas tales recorded by Shokan Valikhanov and Vasily Radlov in the 19th century.
Manas is said to have been buried in the Ala-Too mountains in Talas Province, in northwestern Kyrgyzstan. A mausoleum some 40 km east of the town of Talas is believed to house his remains and is a popular destination for Kyrgyz travellers. Traditional Kyrgyz horsemanship games are held there every summer since 1995. An inscription on the mausoleum states, however, that it is dedicated to ...the most famous of women, Kenizek-Khatun, the daughter of the emir Abuka. Legend has it that Kanikey, Manas' widow, ordered this inscription in an effort to confuse her husband's enemies and prevent a defiling of his grave. The building, known as Manastin Khumbuzu or The Ghumbez of Manas, was probably erected in 1334. On the grounds is a museum dedicated to Manas and his legend.
A minor planet, 3349 Manas, discovered by Soviet astronomer Nikolai Stepanovich Chernykh in 1979, is named after the epic poem. Numerous places in Kyrgyzstan are named after Manas, including the international airport in Bishkek.

Beliuli Caravanserai. Ustyurt Plateau. The history of Uzbekistan (Central Asia).
More information here:
Ustyurt Plateau (also spelled Ust-Urt, Usturt) is a most interesting and least explored destination between the Aral and Caspian Seas. It is just a fabulous rocky desert now but in ancient times caravan roads ran across it. They connected Khiva with the Volga and Emba deltas. The plateau was then controlled by the powerful and wealthy nomadic tribes of the Massageteans...
Beliuli Caravanserai was one of the seven caravanserais there. Located in the center of the plateau, the caravanserai with its strong walls served as a shelter stop for traveling merchants and dervishes. Beliuli complex had a caravanserai building, a holy well, water storage reservoirs, a large burial ground, and shell stone quarries for they used shell stones as building material. Still rarely visited by people today, the lone and half-ruined arch of Beliuli Caravanserai survives as evidence of fascinating ancient architecture once practiced in the area.
