Located in the northern foothills of the Tien Shan Mountains in eastern Kyrgyzstan, Elkintu is a small town in Naryn Oblast, about 1,800 meters above sea level, surrounded by snow-covered steppes and a beautiful natural environment. It is characterized by a traditional nomadic culture, with local residents mostly engaged in animal husbandry, with well-watered pastures and flocks of cattle and sheep in summer, and then turning to a sedentary life in winter. The town retains traditional Kyrgyz wooden houses and handicrafts, and you can occasionally see herdsmen driving their sheep through the streets. Despite its small size, Erkintu is a great place to experience Central Asian mountain life and the warmth of nomadic herders, and there are hiking and bird-watching routes in the vicinity for nature- and culture-loving travelers to explore.
