Chigu — The Mecca of Researchers of Preissykulya

Semenov-Tian-Shansky Searches for Chigu Just as Mecca eternally beckons Muslims, Chigu attracted almost all researchers of the Preissykul region. The scientific quest for the real or mythical Chigu has a clearly defined starting date. On a warm evening of June 14, 1857, a young Russian scientist-traveler, arriving from distant St. Petersburg to Issyk-Kul in search of the origins of the Tian Shan mountains, stood on the cape of Kara-Bulun, at the watershed of the rivers Tyup and Dzhergalan,

New Edition of the Ballet "Cholpon" 1953

The Ballet 'Cholpon' Ten Years Later Almost ten years later, in 1953, 'Cholpon' was revived in a new edition. The plot changed this time as follows. The poor man Nurdin kills a wild goat in the khan's domain and falls into the hands of his servants. Along with him, his beloved Cholpon and her brother Sapar are captured. As punishment, the khan decides to exile them. But Nurdin attracts the attention of the sorceress Aydai, whom the khan intends to marry to his son.

How the Kyrgyz Entered the Kokand Khanate

The Birth and Change of Dynasties of the Future Alay Queen Before delving into the era in which the Alay Queen was born and lived, it is worthwhile to trace the history of her country's emergence, while also recalling the birth and change of dynasties of its rulers. The emergence of the Kokand Khanate in the early 18th century is associated with the Uzbek feudal lord Shahrokh-biy. In 1709, he founded the royal Ming dynasty, displacing the initially ruling community of khojas,

The Legend of the Mother Deer

The Extermination of the Kyrgyz Tribe This happened a long time ago. In ancient times, when there were more forests on earth than grass, and the waters in our lands were more abundant than the dry land, there lived a Kyrgyz tribe on the banks of a large and cold river. That river was called Enesai. It flows far from here, in Siberia. It takes three years and three months to ride there on horseback. Now this river is called Yenisei, but at that time it was called Enesai. That’s why there was a

The Conquest of the Kyrgyz by Russia. In the last quarter of the 18th century, the southern tribes were part of the Kokand Khanate, while the northern tribes were under the authority of their tribal leaders. With the emergence of the Kokand possession in 1709, alongside the settled groups of Uzbeks and Tajiks known as sarts, there were also representatives of the ilatiya (partly settled by that time, and mainly semi-nomadic Kyrgyz, Uzbeks, Kipchaks, Turks, and other ethnicities), whose

This is the young man Nurdin, seduced by the ghostly love of the sorceress Aydai, and Cholpon, who tenderly loves Nurdin. In pursuit of the sorceress Aydai, Nurdin forgets Cholpon, whom he was in love with. He searches for the one who captivated him, overcoming many difficulties in his quest until he reaches the palace of the sorceress.

The Little-Known "Columbus of Asia" The name Zhang Qian is almost unknown to the general public. There is little written about him. Yet he deserves to be placed alongside the greatest explorers, such as Columbus, Magellan, and Vasco da Gama. He was the first to connect the trade arteries of China with those of the West. As a result, a new intercontinental route emerged — the Silk Road. This route, which operated for one and a half thousand years, played a huge role in bringing the
