Climate: What is the best time to visit Bishkek?
Bishkek summers are hot and dry. Temperatures can reach as high as 31°C.

Since Kyrgyzstan is in a mountainous area and has no access to the sea, that's why it's good to travel here year-round. In the cold season, head to ski resorts and enjoy the high mountain scenery, and in the warm season, swim in Issyk Kul, spend the night in a yurt in the mountains, and walk around town.
