About this experience
Once upon a time the ocean Tethys raged in the expanses of Mangystau, the waters of which for centuries carved out whimsical stone formations, canyons, and grottos. Many of them have survived to our days. You will spend a day surrounded by truly cosmic landscapes: we will show you the 'Valley of the Spheres' Torish, the heart-shaped lake, the chalky Kapamsay canyon, and Zhygylan cape. Get ready to be amazed and take incredible photos!
