After a few days in Bishkek, the fresh air and the great views from the top of the Burana tower reopen your mind for nature. The canyon is absolutely stunning, the hike there even better literally walking on a frozen stream. The few boulders (3-5m) blocking the way l easily managed with the help of my wonderful tour guide Aziz. Being a perfect gentleman, he always offers a helping hand and prevented me more than once from slipping on the ice. He even brought gloves for climbing the boulders! I had a wonderful day with lively discussions and in harmonious silence - thank you again, Aziz!
