Enrolled in the Food Security, Nutrition and Sustainable Development course, I had the pleasure of joining an excursion to Ala-Archa National Park. During the excursion I have learned that the park was established in 1976 to preserve its rich biodiversity, the park is home to diverse wildlife, including grey marmots, wild goats, deer, Ibex, and the elusive snow leopard, etc. This park, a beloved retreat for tourists and Bishkek locals, transforms into a haven for climbers and picnickers, especially on weekends. Guided by Professor Mairambek, we explored the ecological wealth of the park, discovering a diverse array of flora and fauna unique to this enchanting habitat. In addition, with each ascent, Professor Mairambek shed light on the intricate web of life within Ala-Archa, emphasizing the crucial role of biodiversity in sustaining ecosystems and supporting food security.

I recently visited Ala-Archa National Park as part of a class. We were able to turn our trips into enjoyable discussions on the area's many distinct elements because to Professor Nurgaziev's extensive knowledge of the park's majestic peaks, many trails, lush terrain, and wildlife, including ibex and marmots native to the park. The seven-hour ride up the mountain was an unforgettable experience made possible by Professor Nurgaziev's ability to foster a sense of community among us, as well as the spectacular beauty of the surroundings.
