Sulaiman-Too Mountain

A rocky ridge in the middle of Osh, whose five summits rise about a hundred and fifty metres above the flat city and show from any street. The mountain was revered long before Islam, and petroglyphs, grottoes and stones polished by pilgrims survive on its slopes, while a small mosque linked with Babur stands on the upper platform. In 2009 Sulaiman-Too became the first UNESCO World Heritage site in Kyrgyzstan.
