dizzy's question:
Please tell me some interesting places to visit in Karakol. I have a day to spend there and I don't know how to kill it.(give a different answer) .
Try to visit Chinese Mosque, it looks like a Mongolian Buddhist temple, but is in fact a mosque, built without nails...It's really interesting to see and has a rich history. It's been completed in 1910 by Chinese architects and 20 Chinese artisans. Although it was closed by the Bolsheviks from 1933 to 1943, now it's a place of worship....The entrance is free...:P
