Natural Attraction

Bokty

Mount Bokty rises above the flat surface like a huge clay table. On the one hand, the mountain looks like an overturned white boat with an orange-yellow bottom covered with brown algae. On the other hand, it is an unusually large pyramid created by nature.
Bokty stands in the middle of the dried litter. It rises 8 meters above sea level, and the height of the mountain itself reaches 165 meters.
The climate in the area of the mountain is sharply continental, which is typical for Mangystau. Precipitation is low, so the flora is poorly developed. There are shrubs characteristic of deserts. Of the animals, you can meet camels, scorpions and lizards.
Mount Bokty is depicted on an old-style 1000 tenge bill of the National Bank of Kazakhstan.
