Workation in Karakol: the essentials
A wooden Russian cathedral and a Dungan mosque built without nails tell of the traders and settlers who came to this far corner of the Russian Empire. Karakol, formerly Przhevalsk after the explorer buried nearby, is Kyrgyzstan's fourth-largest city, with about 84,000 people near the eastern tip of Lake Issyk-Kul. Trekking routes lead into the Terskey Ala-Too towards Altyn Arashan and Ala-Kul, and a ski base operates above town in winter. Hikers pass through in a steady flow, and the town has coworking spaces too. Bishkek is about 380 km away by road, and Karakol International Airport about 3 km from town.
