Mountains, Ian Neuss

Kyrgyzstan is famous for its mountains. India is still showing the effects of its pushing into the Asian plate this far north and has produced the Tien Shan mountains, bordering China, up to 7439m high along the border. They are rugged, beautiful mountains, running east west with water fed valleys between. They form the summer pastures for the families’ livestock.
