A 21-year-old Kyrgyz woman has established a yurt camp at the base of the 7,000-meter Lenin Peak, near the Kyrgyz-Tajik border, which has gained popularity among foreign tourists. Inspired by her interactions with international visitors during her childhood, Gulburak Begmataeva decided to launch her own yurt camp. She hopes for the Kyrgyz-Tajik border to reopen, as its closure is severely affecting cross-border tourism in the region.
