Konorchok Canyons

Suluu-Terek, Dry Canyons are more known as Konorchok Canyons. Canyons are located 85mi/125 km from Bishkek. Some of the canyons have romantic names like “Grand Canyon”, “Bobsleigh” and “Skyscraper”. They were formed about one and a half to two million years ago and since that time erosion by wind and water has turned a plain plateau into gigantic stone pillars, some of which are 400-500 meters high.
