The Kyrgyz government has been in heated discussion on how to raise revenue to improve its religious sites, many that have been built during the days of the Silk Route trading. Many of the sites have not been updated or even seen a construction worker since the days of the Russian Czars. Finally new legislation is being drawn up to gain some control over the tourism sector in Kyrgyzstan, and more importantly new rules and fees will be introduced to collect for the restoration of ancient mosques and other various religious sites. Here are some of my favorite Kyrgyz mosques that need work and/or need new fans. You be the judge.
