A seven-room yurt was set up in Issyk-Kul region of Kyrgyzstan. The video was posted on social media.
It turned out that the portable dwelling was presented at the contest of yurts Ysyk-Kul Boz Ui Mekeni (Issyk-Kul — the birthplace of yurts) within the framework of the fifth festival Ulut Baskan uluu Zhol and in honor of the 155th anniversary of Karakol city.
The author of the yurt project and its co-owner is local resident Salavat Imashev. He told journalists that he first created a model of the seven-room yurt back in 2012. The idea was patented the same year.
«Then, due to financial issues, we could not make a high-quality yurt. It was set up on Ala-Too square in Bishkek. But then it was dismantled. And now, 12 years later, we decided to make it in good quality and did it. There are seven rooms in the yurt, they symbolize our regions. We united them under one tunduk, which symbolizes the friendship of the regions,» Salavat Imashev said.
Options for further use of the seven-room yurt are being considered now, he added.
