Bringing together very different civilizations, this <strong>network of land and sea routes<\/strong> enabled not only <strong>trade, but also philosophical, religious, scientific, cultural, artistic and technical exchanges<\/strong>. Chinese silk was just one of the goods that passed through the mythical cities of Samarkand and Bukhara, along with spices, carpets, furs, horses, weapons, glassware and more. Long and tiring, the merchants' routes varied according to natural hazards and local conditions. They had to cross the formidable Gobi and Taklamakan deserts, survive attacks from nomadic horsemen, or traverse the Celestial Mountains of Kyrgyzstan. <strong>Each route was punctuated by relays and caravanserais where merchants could resupply, rest, and trade their goods<\/strong>. One of these caravanserais has withstood the test of time and can be visited in southern Kyrgyzstan: the <strong>Tash-Rabat caravanserai.<\/strong>     <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_5 et_pb_row et_block_row et_animated preset--module--divi-row--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_8 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_image_3 et_pb_image et_pb_module et_block_module\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-2.jpg\" class=\"et_pb_lightbox_image\" alt=\"visit the Tash Rabat caravanserai in Kyrgyzstan, on the ancient Silk Road\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-2.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-2-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-2-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-22117\" alt=\"visit the Tash Rabat caravanserai in Kyrgyzstan, on the ancient Silk Road\" title=\"Tash-Rabat-Baetov-kyrgyzstan-2\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_6 et_pb_row et_block_row preset--module--divi-row--default\" id=\"tash-rabat\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_9 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_5 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2>The Tash-Rabat caravanserai<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_6 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>Along the road <strong>between Naryn and the Torugart Pass (3,752 m)<\/strong> on the Chinese border, a small track winds its way towards the At-Bashi Mountains in a narrow valley with splendid jagged rock faces. On the slopes of the valley, <strong>at an altitude of 3,500 m, stands the sumptuous caravanserai of Tash-Rabat<\/strong>. This historic monument, which dates back to the <strong>15th century<\/strong>, welcomed a multitude of merchants and travellers along the Silk Road. The<strong>well-preserved stone building<\/strong> houses a network of small rooms that served as bedrooms, prison cells, pantries and prayer halls. Admission to the caravanserai is charged at 50 soms per person. The caravanserai is surrounded by a yurt camp for visiting tourists.     <\/p>\n<p><strong>The area around Tash-Rabat is ideal for hiking and horse-riding<\/strong>. There are <strong>1- to 5-day itineraries<\/strong> across the At-Bashi mountain range to <strong>Lake Chatyr-Kul<\/strong>. The surrounding area is magnificent, especially the Tash-Rabat pass at 3,964 m, with its superb views over the great Chatyr-Kul lake. A border permit is required to use the hiking trails leading down to the lake. Don't hesitate to ask the various yurt camps about possible itineraries.    <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_7 et_pb_row et_block_row et_animated preset--module--divi-row--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_10 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_image_4 et_pb_image et_pb_module et_block_module\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-7.jpg\" class=\"et_pb_lightbox_image\" alt=\"tash rabat yurt camp in kyrgyzstan\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-7.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-7.jpg 500w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-7-480x720.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 500px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-22122\" alt=\"tash rabat yurt camp in kyrgyzstan\" title=\"Tash-Rabat-Baetov-kyrgyzstan-7\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_11 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_image_5 et_pb_image et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-1.jpg\" class=\"et_pb_lightbox_image\" alt=\"yurt camp around the Tash-Rabat caravanserai in Kyrgyzstan\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-1.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-1-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-1-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-22120\" alt=\"yurt camp around the Tash-Rabat caravanserai in Kyrgyzstan\" title=\"Tash-Rabat-Baetov-kyrgyzstan-1\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_image_6 et_pb_image et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-6.jpg\" class=\"et_pb_lightbox_image\" alt=\"on the road to the Tash Rabat caravanserai\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-6.jpg\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-6.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-6-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/ountravela.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tash-rabat-baetov-kirghizistan-6-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" class=\"wp-image-22121\" alt=\"on the road to the Tash Rabat caravanserai\" title=\"Tash-Rabat-Baetov-kyrgyzstan-6\" \/><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_8 et_pb_row et_block_row preset--module--divi-row--default\" id=\"chatyr-kul\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_12 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_7 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2>Lake Chatyr-Kul<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_8 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>Largely ignored by tourists, due to its remoteness and the need to obtain a border permit to visit it, this salt lake is nevertheless an <strong>unspoilt, wild place well worth a visit<\/strong>. <strong>Accessible by a day's ride on foot or horseback from Tash-Rabat<\/strong>, you may be lucky enough to spot rare migratory birds such as the bar-headed goose or the damselfly crane.
