Landscape near Tüp

**Tüp** ([Kyrgyz](/source/Kyrgyz_language): Түп) or **Tyup** ([Russian](/source/Russian_language): Тюп) is a large village in the [Issyk-Kul Region](/source/Issyk-Kul_Region) of [Kyrgyzstan](/source/Kyrgyzstan), and the center of the [Tüp District](/source/T%C3%BCp_District). It was established as village Preobrazhenskoye in 1870.[2] Its population was 12,355 in 2021.[1] Tüp is a road junction town at the northeast corner of Lake [Issyk Kul](/source/Issyk_Kul). To the west on A363 is [Anan'yevo](/source/Anan'yevo) and to the south [Karakol](/source/Karakol). To the east, A362 leads up the Karkara valley to [Kazakhstan](/source/Kazakhstan).

The *Karkara ('black crane') Valley* leads east from here about 60 km to Kazakhstan between the [Kyungey Ala-Too](/source/Kyungey_Ala-Too) to the north and the Central [Tian Shan](/source/Tian_Shan) to the south. There is an annual horse festival. Halfway up the valley is the village of [San-Tash](/source/San-Tash) (counting stones). It is said that [Tamerlane](/source/Timur) once ordered each of his soldiers to place a stone in a pile as they passed. When they returned, each soldier was to remove a stone, the number of remaining stones being the number of soldiers that has died. There is a small hollow in the top of the pile, representing the comparatively very small number of people who returned. There are no other stones in the region for miles around.
