Kyzyl-Oy, Mountain village in Osh Region, Kyrgyzstan
Kyzyl-Oi sits at 1,800 meters elevation in a narrow gorge beside the Kokomeren River, encircled by tall mountains with red-tinted surfaces.
The settlement existed before the Soviet period as a trading post on the ancient Silk Road, connecting merchants traveling between Central Asia and China.
Traditional reddish clay houses of the village maintain Central Asian architectural patterns, reflecting centuries-old building methods of the region.
Visitors need warm clothing throughout the year as the high altitude location experiences cold temperatures, particularly during the extended winter season.
The village name translates to 'red basin' in Kyrgyz language, referring to the distinct copper-colored mountains that surround the settlement.
