Aldyn Bulak opening

Turizm Tuvy. Translated by Heda Jindrak

Aldyn Bulak openingThe long awaited project of the Year  of Tourism - ethnocultural complex "Aldyn Bulak" finally opens.

The ceremonial opening of the yurt-restaurant in ethnic style will take place on 25 February. In the design of the yurt, the main emphasis was on the interior , to reflect the unique history and culture of our republic. It is based on elements of Tuvan traditional way of life and on the riches of the Scythian time - on the objects found in the kurgan burials "Arzhaan-1" and "Arzhaan-2". The walls are decorated with various images of  the Scythian time. The yurt is divided into 16 zones, and calculated to seat 100 people.

The diameter of the yurt is 15 meters, the walls are 3 meters high, and the total height of the yurt is 5 meters. Beside that, there is a stage for  ceremonial activities and cultural programs.

On the day of the opening, four VIP yurts will also open. This type of yurt is divided into 3 zones corresponding to a bedroom, dining room and living-working room. Two9 of these yurts are in classic design, and two in ethnic style. The diameter of these yurts is 10 meters, walls are 2 meters high, and the total height is 3 meters. The yurts have electricity, heating and all the necessary conveniences.

Remember that the complex is located in a picturesque location "Balyktyg-Kharaar" 45 kilometers from Kyzyl in the west direction of Kyzyl - Shagonar highway beside Ulug-Khem river. The idea of this project carries an important symbolic significance and is designed as a model of the Universe and the movement of the planets in the galaxy. The Sun and the planets are represented by the yurts. The distribution of the yurts is calculated in accordance with the Ancient Eastern science of Feng-Shui, and it is designed to attract success and prosperity.

The construction of "Aldyn-Bulak" started last year in June. According to plan the project will consist of the yurt-restaurant, four "presidential" VIP yurts,  seven economy-class yurts, five Todzhan chooms with a hearth, an outdoor sports area, scenic view arbors, a bath-sauna, a shop with souvenirs, administrative buildings and car parking areas. Beside all this, there will be a school for learning throat-singing, in the honor of which a cultic symbol has been erected - "Khoomei Ovaa" - a golden arrow pointing to the sky. When guests  and fans of khoomei come here from the whole world, they should ask the Spirit of the Ovaa for permission to learn khoomei, with a special ritual.
