The Ybyktysai Gorge
The Ybyktysay Gorge, a secluded canyon famous for its unreal, sponge-like rock textures and bizarre formations.
Ybykty is a hidden treasure of Mangystau. A small canyon several hundred meters long is covered with a network of holes reminiscent of a honeycomb or porous chocolate. The upper parts are decorated with overhanging cornices, and in the farthest part of the narrow corridor, the sun's rays never reach the bottom. This unusual place has an equally mysterious name: Ybykty.
