On the way from Bishkek to Karakol. Railway.

There is only one railway line in Issyk-Kul region of Kyrgyzstan. This line connects Bishkek - the capital of Kyrgyztan and Balykchy - the town in western part of Issyk-Kul region. No more railways are there. It was planned to build new line from Balykchy to some coal mine in the mountains but I am not sure it is in progress now. At the photo: railway in Boom canyon goes through the mountains and sometimes has some dangerous parts covered with special tunnels.
