Chüy (Kyrgyz: Чүй, Russian: Чуй) is a village (Russian: село) in the Chuy Province of Kyrgyzstan. It is adjacent to the former provincial capital, the city of Tokmok, and is the administrative center of the Chuy District (one of the 8 administrative districts of the Chuy Province), which surrounds Tokmok.
Since Chuy is adjacent to Tokmok, the two settlements together are sometimes informally referred to as the "city of Chuy-Tokmok" (Чуй-Токмок; sometimes, Chuy-Tokmak, Чуй-Токмак).[1]
