Moon canyon

Moon Canyon, also known as Valley of the Moon, is another striking natural wonder located within the Charyn Canyon in the Almaty Region of Kazakhstan. It is one of the distinct sections of the larger Charyn Canyon National Park, renowned for its unique and otherworldly landscape.

The Moon Canyon is famous for its surreal and almost extraterrestrial rock formations. The canyon’s name is derived from the barren, moon-like appearance of its landscape, with towering cliffs, spires, and rock sculptures shaped by wind and water erosion over millions of years.

Visitors to Moon Canyon can engage in various activities, such as hiking and exploring the numerous trails that wind through the canyon. The area is also a favorite spot for photographers due to its dramatic and picturesque scenery.
