Driving to Charyn Canyon will take around 2.5 hours, on the way you will see how landscapes change from blooming gardens into flat steppes without any tree on a horizon. After drive it is time to get out from the car and discover one of the most beautiful canyons in Central Asia! We will walk down into the depths of the Valley of Castles and have a nice picnic on Charyn river bank.
Our next destination is Moon Valley. See the hidden canyon that not many other travelers know about. Enjoy gorgeous view from the best point!
