Lake Tuzkol is considered not only salty but also dead. Its location on the border territory of Kyrgyzstan and China makes it a unique place. Because of its location, the locals have nicknamed it Lake Tuzkol, which literally means "Wind Lake".

Tekes - a large mountain river, which is one of the main tributaries of the Ili River, hence the name of the waterfall, it is small, but its beauty and wildlife around makes this place magical and want to return here again and again.

Komirshi Gorge is located on the southern side of the Ketmen range (Uzinkara). The place is very popular among locals because of the "holy" spring located in the gorge and unknown to tourists. Typical landscape of Asian treeless mountains in the foothills, at the same time unexpected spruce forest along the river Komirsha.
