Location
Bel Tam Yurt Camp is located on the southern shore of Issky-Kul Lake. After a long hiking trip, this place was like a piece of heaven!
The best
I didn’t expect to have a hot shower during my trip in Kyrgyzstan but there it was in Bel Tam. A flush toilet and hot shower is the definition of luxury to me. Bel Tam is also a good place to relax. Watching amazing sunrise and sunset, swimming in the ocean-like lake, walking around the lake, or just reading in a yurt, it’s just so comfortable.
The worst
Some yurts have mattresses but they are not really comfortable. It’s better to sleep on the ground with the mat.
Internet Connection
In general, internet connection is not something that comes easily. There are some phone signals (3G) but it’s not steady.
Facilities
Hot shower, western toilet, bar, parking

Security
There is a security guard present and in general safety and security is good in Kathmandu. I never felt like myself or my possessions were at risk while staying at Potala Guest House Kathmandu.
Editor’s pick
Recommended. The famous Issyk-Kul Lake is one of the best ‘beach’ vacation I’ve done all thanks to Bel Tam Yurt Camp.
