There’s just something about small villages that we absolutely love, and the village of Arslanbob was no exception. The people living there are 100% Muslim, 95% Uzbek and 5% Kyrgyz, which made for a very colourful, flavourful and hospitable place. From mountains to walnut groves, this little village of 13,000 had it all!
Arslanbob was so photogenic, all over we turned there was a moment waiting to be captured. here are some of our preferred photos from our time spent there:

After a very memorable four days, we had to say goodbye to the beautiful landscapes, the homestay families, the tea houses, the delicious food and the unwinded pace of the village of Arslanbob. I think it’s safe to say that if (when) we come back to Kyrgyzstan, we’ll be going to this picturesque village again!
