If you are looking for serenity, calmness and true authentic alpine views of Kyrgyztan, then should visit Juuku valley. Its not polular tourist destination, which in my mind makes it more unique and calm place. The reason is one needs 4by4 to get there. Its truly underrated place to visit. Many animals are available to see. I personally saw fox, rabbit, eagles while driving there.
