Bishkek is the capital and largest city of Kyrgyzstan, home to approximately 1 million residents. It operates on Kyrgyzstan Time (KGT, UTC+6), a fixed year-round offset. Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked, mountainous Central Asian nation — over 90% of the country is covered by mountains, primarily the Tian Shan range. Bishkek sits in the Chuy Valley at 800 metres elevation, backed by the dramatic peaks of the Kyrgyz Range. The country is known as the 'Switzerland of Central Asia' for its spectacular mountain scenery, and is the only Central Asian country to have a Manas Epic — the world's longest oral epic poem, composed of over 500,000 verses chronicling the legendary Kyrgyz hero Manas. Kyrgyzstan is one of the most democratic countries in Central Asia. Issyk-Kul, the world's second-largest alpine lake (after Lake Titicaca), sits about 3 hours from Bishkek and is one of Central Asia's premier resort destinations.
