Instead of history - a toilet. A stone with ancient drawings at Issyk-Kul has been turned into a restroom

In addition, a dump has formed nearby


At Issyk-Kul, a stone featuring ancient petroglyphs is being used as a toilet, and a dump has been organized nearby. This became known thanks to a post by blogger @stepanjaratman.kg on social media.

This site is located near a construction project in the city of Asman.

The blogger expressed dissatisfaction, noting: "This could be a national treasure that requires protection and could attract tourists. Instead, people are using it as a toilet. Shouldn't this area be fenced off?"

To draw attention to the problem, he installed a warning sign next to the stone.

In the comments to his post, users began discussing the potential historical value of the petroglyphs, suggesting that they may have existed for 2-3 thousand years.

One woman on social media expressed outrage: "I used to bring tourists here. This is just terrible!"
