For Le Quynh Anh – founder of the LELA on Earth independent travel project and passionate about landscape photography – the vibrant summer days in Central Asia are a journey to a magical world where nature, nomadic culture, and Soviet remnants blend in unexpected ways.
Nomadic life on the steppe
White yurts
Le Quynh Anh's photo series captures moments from her 10-day journey between Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, where she lived amidst endless steppes, slept under the stars in yurt tents, watched herds of horses gallop across the grasslands, and was mesmerized by the sunsets over valleys of wildflowers such as Altyn Arashan, Jyrgalan, and Chong Kemin… For Quynh Anh, Central Asia is a place where every frame becomes a vibrant painting, a "visual feast" reserved for souls who love photography and exploration.

Touching the pristine beauty of nature.



The transitional season of hot, windy steppe

Summer in Central Asia is not characterized by the usual stifling heat, but rather by its clear, cool, and vibrant atmosphere.


A journey through Central Asia is not for those who prefer comfort: simple accommodations, challenging terrain, and many places lacking signal or Wi-Fi… But it is precisely these limitations that open up authentic experiences, where people connect more deeply with nature, with culture, and with themselves.
Central Asia in summer is a symphony of nature, culture, and vibrant experiences.
