Report #19: Bazars in Kyrgyzstan

Google Earth is such a cool thing. Enjoy the satellite pictures of the two biggest bazars in Kyrgyzstan, and maybe even in Central Asia. Last week I was in Karasuu bazar. Although Dordoi looks bigger, the goods turnover in Karasuu is probably several times bigger as they trade in bulk and throughout Central Asia.
