Lenin Statue, Osh
Ленин эстелиги
One of the tallest Lenin statues still standing in Central Asia, located on Lenin Square opposite the regional government building, a reminder of Osh's Soviet past.
This tall standing statue of Lenin has remained on the square opposite the Osh regional government building since Kyrgyzstan became independent. It is one of the few Soviet-era leader statues in Central Asia still located in a city centre. Around the square are Soviet-style administrative buildings and a stadium, and locals often take strolls here. Entry is free. It is a good place for photos, and you can walk on to the Ak-Buura riverbank or the bazaar afterwards.
