The Ala Archa State Residence (Kyrgyz: "Ала-Арча" мамлекеттик резиденциясы; Russian: государственная резиденция «Ала-Арча») is an official presidential residence in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.[1][2] It is the current official home of President of Kyrgyzstan Sadyr Japarov.
Purpose
[edit]The main tasks of the state residence are to provide material, technical, social and residential services for the president of the Kyrgyz Republic and members of his or her family as well as serve as the main venue for state protocol events of the president, the prime minister, and the chairman of the Supreme Council.[3] Many summits that take place in Bishkek have taken place in the residence, such as the CIS summit of 2008.[4] Acting presidents have the right to live in the residence on a temporary basis.[5] It also helps carry out cultural events and provides hotel services for distinguished individuals. The hotels include traditional yurts, a billiard room and a business center.[6]
Areas
[edit]In fall 2018, large-scale renovations were done throughout the State Residence, the first in 10 years. It was finished by the time of the SCO summit in Bishkek the following June.[7]
Outside pavilion
[edit]When Sooronbay Jeenbekov welcomed Vladimir Putin to Bishkek in March 2019, a new marble pavilion was created as part of the renovations outside the residence to provide a sound place for the National Guard to render honors. Nicknamed "the pride of Kyrgyzstan", it is made of Issyk-Kul marble and has a height of seven meters 20 centimeters, as well as 43 meters in length and 22 meters in width.[7]
