This year, Naryn is celebrating its 156th birthday.

The correspondent of Turmush discovered archival photos of this small but picturesque city, nestled among the mountains.

Situated at an altitude of 2024 meters above sea level, Naryn is located 365 kilometers from the capital of Kyrgyzstan — Bishkek.

The city was founded in 1868 and serves as the administrative center of the eponymous district and region.

Since 1994, trolleybuses have been operating in Naryn.

According to unconfirmed sources, Naryn is considered the smallest city with trolleybus service.

Trolleybuses run along one central street of the city.
