The Burana Tower is a unique historical monument in Kyrgyzstan dating back to the 11th century. Today it is an impressive structure with a height of about 25 meters with scenic views of the surrounding area.
Nearby there is an open-air museum with stone sculptures that add to the mystery of the place. The climb to the tower is a bit extreme (narrow spiral staircase), but the view from above is worth it!
A great place for lovers of history and beautiful scenery.

It's very beautiful!!!
It got emotional...
the view from the observation deck is breathtaking.
The stairs in the tower are steep, narrow without handrails or lighting, and the steps are made of wood - slippery shoes won't do!
There is a small museum and a souvenir shop nearby.

You can take beautiful photos of the tower against the background of the mountains. Everything else ‐ tombstones, sculptures, petroglyphs - is of interest to specialists. There is a narrow staircase in the tower itself, literally a manhole, the two of them cannot separate, and there is nothing else. It's dark and scary to go down, if you stumble, it will hurt.

The tower is ordinary, but the entrance ticket costs ridiculous money, so you can climb for show. Nearby there is much more interesting: ancient rock art, tools, etc. It's all under the open sky.

Be sure to visit the museum and ask the guide to take you on a guided tour. She is a very passionate specialist. Thanks to her.

A great place to spend time in peace and enjoy the views. An interesting set of antiquities and all in the open air. Climb the tower with children under 10 years old - forget it. The stairs are high and narrow, there is no light. But it's definitely worth a visit.

If you have this place on the way, then of course it's worth stopping by, but especially for the sake of it, it's not worth it. Climbing the tower up a very narrow steep and dark staircase, the view is stunning, reminiscent of Italian Tuscany, but as long as there are no crowds of people there, you can enjoy it. But keep in mind, taking into account the narrow stairs, you need to somehow wait for no one to meet you, and this can sometimes take a very long time

A wonderful historical place. A small and pleasant museum. A very dark and dangerous staircase to the tower itself. They sell good souvenirs in the yurt. You can get here by taxi, but you will have to find a ride back: buses don't seem to go here, we also failed to call a taxi. It was a pleasure to visit this place and learn more about the ancient and unique culture of Kyrgyzstan.

It was in July. The scorching sun! There is a lot of open space near the tower, there are several places in the shade. There is an ice cream shop selling ice cream) next to the tower there is a museum dedicated to this tower, a small one - the guide will tell you in detail the history of the tower and the excavations. The museum has air conditioning. Entrance and excursion to the museum are paid. You can climb to the very top of the tower, the staircase is very narrow, so the movement along it is one-way. For lovers of museums and history, a visit is a must!

The tower was not very impressed, although its history is really very fascinating, but I liked the museum and the yurt very much! It is interesting to read the history of this place.

If you are traveling from Bishkek to Issy Kul, then you can stop by for a walk. There's probably no point in going on purpose.

A very colorful place! Tower, swing, mini museum.
Museum - 50 soms (~50 rubles)
You can climb the tower for 60 soms.
The ascent is very heavy, almost vertical stairs in a narrow space. But the views from the tower 😍. It was worth it.

We were here out of season, 3.02 on Saturday. there were practically no people. a very narrow corridor, not for fans of narrow passages. You also need to go down carefully. there is no backlight.
The view from the tower is beautiful

You need to go to such places to live or with an excursion or talk with guides or museum staff.
What interesting secrets the local guide revealed to us. I can't tell you, I've told you too much personal stuff. In general, with the stories of the local residents, this place began to play with other colors for me.

Well, it's a very beautiful place, the fields. For 500 SOM on top of the ticket, they will be allowed to launch a drone!
If you go to the tower, it is unrealistic to separate the two of you there, you either need to wash your face through one of the windows, or wait in line. It's better to go with a flashlight.

An open-air museum. 12 km from Tosor. It's not difficult to find. We liked walking around the territory, there are a lot of exhibits. Beautiful views of the distant mountains. I advise you to go with a guide

An interesting museum, the tower is impressive, especially the ascent and descent from it. The territory is well maintained. The parking lot is not equipped.

We came to Kyrgyzstan for five days. And the first place we went was to the Burana Tower. The impressions are excellent, the museum at the tower surprised with the number of copies, the museum curator told everything very interestingly. The tower is high, it is easier to climb than to descend.

A unique place. An unusual tower, which is almost a thousand years old. A collection of tombstones. Plus, the museum is interesting.
It is disappointing that the ascent to the tower is not regulated in any way - there is a single very narrow steep spiral dark staircase on which it is impossible to miss each other. Therefore, there is a high probability of a very long traffic jam of people.

An unusual place. But we must look for passing pleasures. In our case, the second strawberry harvest has ripened. Bought directly from the field😉

If you were in Kyrgyzstan and did not visit the Burana Tower, then you did not get the pleasure of traveling around this country. Climbing the stairs is breathtaking.

An interesting historical object, you can climb to the top. The staircase is very narrow, which makes it even more interesting. Unusual masonry.
There is a small museum nearby, yurts with souvenirs.

Kyrgyzstan is just a wonderful country
A small valley with the burial stones of nomads and a minaret destroyed by an earthquake in the Middle Ages are worth a long flight
Must-visit

Well, in principle, there is not much to watch. Well, this tower stood on the Silk Road, yes! For general development it will go! On the way to Issyk Kul!

I didn't like it very much. It's kind of very poor. It's not interesting. It will be so cleanly noted that it was. But this is the case almost everywhere.🤷♂️
