2 places found.

1. 

   Tash Rabat

   Tash Rabat is a stone fortress/caravanserai dating from either the 13th or 15th century (depending on the source), which was once a prominent stop on the silk road. Tash Rabat is only about 60km from the city of Naryn; however, due to the quality of the roads, the trip takes about two and a half hours.

2. 

   Jack Rabbit Trading Post

   A famous Route 66 trading post since 1949, Jack Rabbit has most of the usual stuff found in trading posts throughout the Southwest. The thing it has that sets it apart from the others is a large rabbit that you can pose on for pictures, as well as the "HERE IT IS" sign at the entrance.
