Dead Lake Kara-Kul is a unique therapeutic complex located 400 meters from the shore of Lake Issyk-Kul. Its size is only 600 by 1000 meters, and due to the high salt content in the lake, only bacteria can thrive.
The lake appeared during a period when the level of Issyk-Kul was much higher than it is currently. The water covered a much larger area, and mini-lakes formed in the surrounding water bodies. Kara-Kul is connected to Lake Issyk-Kul through an isolated underground channel that replenishes the water supply of the Dead Lake.
Due to the high concentration of salts, the Dead Lake has healing properties, specifically 70% or 132 grams per liter. Here, one can find relief from various illnesses, including gynecological, dermatological, and neurological conditions. Applications of therapeutic mud, abundant in the area, are also beneficial.
