Canyon in Kyrgyz
One blogger went on the tour of the unique canyon, which is located in Kyrgyzstan ...
In Kyrgyzstan also has its own Grand Canyon, which is located in the valley Komorchek. The unique beauty of Kyrgyz canyons - in their majestic cliffs, long shadows falling from the sculptures created by nature, sunset sun lit the Tien Shan. Once upon a time, millions of years ago, there was an ancient sea. Then, the bottom has risen and formed a plateau. Well, after water and wind completed the work of the great sculptor - nature.
On the internet say that the height of the canyons reaches 400-500 meters. Our guide said that this is all bullshit and height of 100-200 meters.

April 3, but still part of the river is covered with snow
I had to leave early in the morning to be able to walk on the frozen ground and not sink in the mud.
If we believe the sources on the Internet, and we understand that you can trust them with the proviso that the total length of all the canyons along the river Komorchek is about 200 kilometers.
The river winds from side to side
Hairy bush
In places where the sunlight falls just a little bit, preserved glaciers. The thickness of such mud glaciers about 3-4 inches, so walk in him stands with caution
Frost on frozen mud
The texture of the walls of the canyon is also pleasing to the eye
In some places the walls almost perfectly vertical. These beauties are made of red sandstone Paleogene
Canyons called aeolian. Aeolus - running wind, then it means that the wind blows canyons.
With him is desirable to take the gloves, because occasionally have to hold on to the wall. Some really narrow passages
Eagle's Nest
Clings to the edge:
Interestingly temperature drop in the canyons - the sun you're hot in the shade of a decent frost. This is especially noticeable in the morning.
