00:25La 6th World Nomad Games
00:26were held in Bishkek, the capital of the Kyrgyz Republic.
00:29The grand opening was the maiden event for the newly built Bishkek Arena with more than
00:333,000 athletes in 109 national teams.
00:36Symbolically organized on the 35th anniversary of Kyrgyzstan's independence, the opening
00:41also had more than 20 heads of state and government in attendance as their Shanghai Cooperation
00:46Organization Summit coincided with the Games.
00:57Sportsmen competed in 42 disciplines, some traditional in Central Asian nomadic cultures
01:02like kokbar, kokboru, horseback wrestling or bone crushing, and some popular globally like
01:08archery, tug-of-war and horse races.
01:10The team sports duels of traditional powerhouses and neighbors Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan
01:15and Mongolia drew large crowds at the Hippodrome in Tolpon Ata, one of the Games venues.
01:36The main goal of the World Nomad Games is to restore, revive and promote cultural heritage
01:41traditions and ethnic sports of nomadic civilizations across the world.
01:45And so the Games in Kyrgyzstan were so much more than a sports event.
01:48An ethno village was opened in Kirchin Gorge, which demonstrated ancient nomadic way of
01:53life.
01:54In it, Kyrgyzstan's regions presented their culture while also it served as a venue of
01:58the nomad sports contests and the culinary competition.
02:01The village will stay open for tourists in the village of Kyrgyzstan.
02:25The village will stay open for tourists and local people after the Games as Kyrgyzstan tries to capitalise on the
02:34global exposure to elevate its profile,
02:37as a travel destination.
02:38The event that will take place in the future of 5-6 days has its impact in the economic economy.
02:44It will be more than 100-120 million dollars.
02:47But the effect of the media and the information effect of Igor Kyrgyzstan will be on the next year.
02:54Because more than 100 countries of the media, the bloggers will be talking about our country.
03:01I believe that it is the center of the country of Kyrgyzstan, and I believe that the world will
03:07again open Kyrgyzstan as a country, not only with the most beautiful nature, but also with the most powerful country
03:14of Kyrgyzstan.
03:16Scientific conference, Nomadic Civilizations, Heritage, Paradigms, and Prospects, was held during the Games,
03:22where scholars and researchers from 21 countries exchange their knowledge about the influence of nomadic heritage in today's world.
03:29I believe that it is important for us to be a part of the culture of Kyrgyzstan, and I believe
03:36that it is important for us to be a part of the culture of Kyrgyzstan.
03:52Hundreds of sports events were held over a six-day event, which culminated in traditional Kazah-Kyrgyz rivalry with two
03:58countries,
03:59sweeping the medals. Their duels in the finals of Kokpar and Kokboru drew large crowds from both countries.
04:05Kyrgyz team emerged victorious in both sports, but Kyrgyzstan topped the overall medal table with 72 gold medals.
04:12But all agreed that everyone was a winner, as the Games successfully promoted nomad tradition.
04:17For me that was actually one of the most impressive things, that you can learn so much about so many
04:22different cultures,
04:22and at the same time play sports. I think that's perfect.
04:44The Games were visited by more than 200,000 people, while more than 2,000 Kyrgyz and 550 foreign journalists
04:51and bloggers made sure the world found out about the nomad.
04:55Please be sure to visit us, Kyrgyzstan.
04:55Be sure you've noticed on TK by the way,
04:55for the official check.
