Church ruins in Deribisek village

This waterfall is also located on the plain where river almost left mountains. Easy access on the car. Works in spring then dries out.

It is a great destination if you want to taste Karzhantau mountain range. Waterfall is located right where river leaves valley and one can see it only at spring because later river will dry out. Easy to access on a car. Then you may hike valley or traverse to the both adjacent valleys. One of them having a lake for your eyes pleasure.

Hidden in small valley place is a great escape from city noise. Great destination for birdwatchers. Water spring inside valley offers fresh water.

It is a great destination for hikers with underground cave obsession. Pay national park fee, park your car a bit further, then hike 400 meters elevation, then hike downhill 400 meters. It takes whole day to visit this mines. There is no straight way through river valley as it is occupied by border guard base, but they don't mind if you hike around.

It is not far from Shymkent city although is pretty hard to reach. Diameter is 200 meters and 20 meter deep. It took around 5 kiloton TNT to dig crater of this size. No radiation detected. In spring some wild ducks nurse their ducklings in water puddle inside crater.

It is not a ruin but it is not functioning church either. Used as a culture club and storage in Soviet times, this building is still a good example of old architecture.
