Happy Ak kalpak day!
5 March 2020
The national headdress should not be forgotten. It is the heritage of the Kyrgyz people, which contains a deep philosophy. Ak kalpak is a symbol of mountains and purity, the shape and patterns are passed down from generation to generation. "The Kyrgyz are people who wear a white kalpak, the top of which is white, like the tops of the Tien Shan mountains, and the base is dark, like their footsteps" - as they say in the epic "Manas ".
Kyrgyz headdress is an integral part of culture, therefore let protect and preserve the heritage of a great people.
Congratulations!
