Fully functioning old Church Koksayek village

It is a great ruin built in Russian Revival style. Very easy to see on the way to Sayramsu gorge.

This spectacular gorge is narrow at some places. Sometimes like 1 meter narrow and you can touch both walls while walking. Rubber boots advised if you visiting before August, later water level is lower and one can jump on stones. There is a little waterfall in the gorge.

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.

Hidden behind Karzhantau mountain range lake Susingen is growing in popularity among hikers. It is usually accessible in May and June and disappears in July till next srping.

It is a great example of early soviet bridge architecture. At first railroad weaved its way to the bottom of Mashsat gorge and back on top. Later in 1930s overpass was constructed and it is still there.

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.
