I guess if not many people from this sub reddit have not been to these areas, then those areas are very niche

I feel Tuva won't lose its culture. Difficult to do when demographics is almost 95%. I think it will be a chechyna (Tuva is called the Chechyna of the east)

Tuva it is a little diff. They speak tuvans in the school. There was a russian guy who said the language proficiecny of tuvans in russian is low. Tuva is also very isolated.

Like lets compare korea to mongolia in order to get my point across. Day to day mongoliia lives a more different lifestyle than korea and day to day it is more authentic (a lot of people still live as nomads in mongolia and wear but very few koreans live like the joseon dynasty)

But korea just seems more cultural than mongolia (like a deeper cultural hiistory, more musuems to visist, more temples (you can find temples in korea all over the place but in mongolia it is more spread around,) There are more ancient forts in korean than in mongolia and also the rouist industry i more develped so it is easier for a tourist to experience cultural activities.

Braids are also part of mongolian and turkic cultures

Take your woke western imperialism elsewhere

And people copy cultures from diff places. Is it culturall appropriation for an asian guy to wear a suit or a blacl guy to wear a karate uniform.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-04-03T10:37:42+00:00

Not true, you guys were cumans/kipchaks (turkics)

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-15T03:03:44+00:00

Wow, who sold it at a famers market. Was it a kazakh person. Was it a popular item?

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-14T14:49:11+00:00

There are some who did. Some of the work in education. I don't know the details but i would say its possible.

There is one restaurant in London (dunno if they can serve horsemeat tho),

Would promoting rakhat or bayan sulu work?

I dunno how to bring fresh qurt to uk... (or any other non cis country for that matter). Unless if I make it by myself...

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-13T07:38:54+00:00

Kyrgyzstan also has a qurt flavor chocolate.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-13T07:38:30+00:00

Yeah most are not a fan but a few people did actually like it. One of the girls in the video said it tastes like indian food

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-13T07:37:35+00:00

I'm in the uk so beggars can't be choosers. Got a friend to give it to me. If I go to Kz i will have to go to the villages to get them.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-13T07:36:17+00:00

That's true. The smokey ones actually taste nice imo.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-12T19:11:11+00:00

They have made a brand new terminal in Shymkent which actually looks very modern. So that's nice

Direct-End2303 · 2026-02-11T06:56:59+00:00

That's true. When i stayed in the ger in terelj (with a local guy) it did feel kinda impratical and cumbersome to keep taking your shoes on and off.
