Ala-Archa Cemetery

It is located on Abdumomunova Street in Bishkek to the west of the Avenue of the Young Guards.

[1] It is near the Ala Archa National Park in the Tian Shan mountains.

It has historical and cultural significance in the City of Bishkek due to its regular use by order of the Government of Kyrgyzstan for the burial and/or re-burial of Kyrgyz citizens who held the status of political or public status such as former Prime Ministers as well as distinguished persons in the fine arts.

It has served this purpose since 1973, when the Executive Committee of the Frunze City Council repurposed it taking into account the limited space available at the time.
