Culture in Mongolia
Mongolia is well known for its nomadic traditions. The nomadic lifestyle is still practiced today in rural areas of the country. The nomads follow a seasonal routine of breeding and rearing the five main types of livestock: goat, sheep, yaks, camel and horse, migrating from one place to another following the most favorable pastures and campsites.
The traditional Mongolian dance is the biyelgee, especially for the peoples of western Mongolia. It is performed on the music of Mongolian national musical instruments, such as the morin khuur (horse-headed violin) and the yochin.

Inside a Traditional Pamiri House
Tucked high in the mountains of eastern Tajikistan, along the rugged spine of the Pamir range, lies one of Central Asia’s most isolated and fascinating cultural landscapes. Often called "the Roof of the World," the Pamir Mountains are home to a unique people with ancient roots, distinct languages, and enduring traditions: the Pamiris. Among the most symbolic elements of their heritage is the Pamiri house, or chid—a structure that is far more than a shelter. It is a living reflection of the Pamiris' spiritual beliefs, social values, and harmonious relationship with their environment.
Nomad’s Land Featured in NatGeo: Explore the Epic Kyrgyz Nomad Trail
Adventure awaits—and National Geographic just spotlighted the Kyrgyz Nomad Trail (KNT), the longest hiking route in Central Asia (1,243 miles and counting!), with Nomad’s Land named as a trusted ecotourism partner.
Dive into the full story here: "This is the longest hiking trail in Central Asia—here’s what to know before you try it"
Why This Matters
The KNT isn’t just a trail; it’s a transformative journey through Kyrgyzstan’s wildest landscapes—from the shimmering Ala-Köl lake to the ancient Silk Road caravanserai of Tash Rabat. By summer 2025, it’ll grow by another 621 miles, unlocking remote valleys like the Arpa and the soaring Pamir ranges.
As a KNT partner, we’re proud to:
- Design sustainable hikes that support local shepherds and mountain communities.
- Offer exclusive access to hidden gems (think: the Engilchek Glacier, the world’s 6th longest non-polar ice river!).
- Prioritize safety—the trail is carefully routed away from conflict zones, with recent border agreements reopening stunning routes near Batken.
Hiking here is a real and serious challenge. Be respectful, hike responsibly, think sustainable, and create positive impact.
— Yuval Yellin, KNT Co-Creator

Babushka Adoption Foundation
Adopt a Babushka, Offset Your Carbon, Change Lives"
In an era where responsible tourism is crucial, Nomad's Land is extending its commitment beyond environmental sustainability to social responsibility. Partnering with the Kyrgyz Foundation "Babushka Adoption," we aim to make a meaningful impact on the lives of the elderly in Kyrgyzstan, where 57% of seniors live in poverty.
Since 2004, our collaboration with "Babushka Adoption" goes beyond financial support. During challenging times, such as the recent pandemic, we actively participated in distributing food and necessities to provide relief to the elderly in need. We believe in restoring dignity to the lives of these individuals who have contributed so much to their communities.
As part of our innovative approach, we offer our clients the opportunity to not only compensate for the carbon footprint of their travels but also contribute to this noble cause. When travelers choose to adopt a elderly for 180 Euros per year, they not only offset around 2 to 2.5 tonnes (including flight) of CO2 generated during their journey, but they also support the adoption of a babushka or dedushka.
This initiative reflects Nomad's Land's belief that sustainable travel should not only minimize environmental impact but also create positive social change. Adopt a Babushka, Offset Your Carbon, and join us in making a lasting difference in the lives of Kyrgyzstan's elderly.
Excursus Training
Excursion and Interpreter Guides Union of Kyrgyzstan: Enhancing Training Initiatives
We are excited to announce our collaboration with the Excursion and Interpreter Guides Union of Kyrgyzstan, known as Excursus Training, based in Bishkek. This esteemed union is dedicated to organizing a variety of courses, seminars, trainings, and lectures aimed at enhancing the skills and knowledge of Kyrgyz guides.
Excursus Training addresses the gaps in traditional guide training programs. Their comprehensive approach includes practical training in guiding visitors through museums, as well as in-depth instruction on leading hiking tours and managing mountain-related risks.
Our collaboration involves participating in these enriching programs, where we not only learn the nuances of guiding in various settings but also gain valuable insights into the cultural and historical aspects of Kyrgyzstan. To further extend our learning and share knowledge, we actively engage with their community by viewing educational films and disseminating fascinating information about Kyrgyz culture and history on our Facebook page.
Through this partnership, we aim to elevate the standards of guiding services and ensure that every visitor experiences the best of what Kyrgyzstan has to offer.
