Chüy Prospekti

Chüy Prospekti (Kyrgyz: Чүй проспекти, Russian: Чуйский проспект, romanized: Chuysky prospekt) is a major avenue in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

It stretches from east border of Bishkek to Deng Xiaoping Prospekti in the west.

Chüy Prospekti originated as Kupecheskaya (Merchant) Street, and in 1924 it was renamed into Grazhdanskaya (Civil) Street.

Before the October Revolution Serafim Church, Tatar Mosque with medrese together with merchant's small shops, timber houses, and clay-walled huts were located along the street.

In 1920-s the church was adopted for a social club, and the mosque and the medrese were converted to a school.
