Make the most of your Bishkek Expat Life

The former 19th-century Kyrgyz-Khokand fortress offers an exciting intercultural experience for expats, starting with cultural highlights, like Osh Bazaar, the city's best known local food market,, the folkloristic festivities on the occasion of Kyrgyzstan’s Nooruz, up to getting a taste of traditional laghman. The InterNations community helps you as an Bishkek expat to enjoy your expat stay in Kyrgyzstan to the fullest. Our members have already come across many of the questions you’ll have when starting your expatriate life in Bishkek and kindly offer you their assistance, from ʺWhere can I find ATM's for USD in Bishkek?ʺ up to ʺShould I hire a personal driver for Kyrgyzstan?ʺ.
