Tash Rabat, Caravanserai and archaeological site in Naryn Region, Kyrgyzstan

The stone fortress of Tash Rabat stands at an elevation of 3500 meters in the Kara-Koyun valley near the Chinese border.

Built in the 15th century on the foundations of a 9th-century monastery, Tash Rabat served as a shelter for merchants along the Silk Road.

The central dome of this medieval structure contains fragments of plant ornaments, while the surrounding area includes multiple stone burial arrangements.

Tash Rabat is accessible via a marked turn at kilometer 100 on the Naryn-Torugart road, with yurt camps offering accommodation and meals.

The structure consists of 31 rooms arranged around a central hall, featuring thick stone walls that protected travelers from harsh mountain conditions.
