“It is untrue that equality is a law of nature. Nature has no equality; its sovereign law is subordination and dependence” 

Luc de Clapiers de Vauvenargues.

Wednesday Travel Kazakhstan.
Aktau (translated as "white mountains"). The Cretaceous Mountains stretch from south-west to north-east for 16.6 kilometers, width, in the western part, is 6.7 kilometers. The mountains are located between the northern coast of the Ili River and the southern spurs of the Katu Tau Mountains.
The dominant height of the Aktau mountains is 893 meters above sea level. The mountains lie on the territory of the Altyn-Emel natural park in the Kerbulak region in the eastern part of the Almaty region.
From the east, the mountains are limited by the Kalshalysek tract and the valley of the drying up rivers Kokterek and Bokabaydin-Ashasy.
Between the Ili river and the Aktau mountains, in the south, there are the Aigaykum sands. The mountains are interesting, first of all, for picturesque landscapes of rare beauty of different colors, mostly white. The age of the rock deposits is 60 - 70 million years.
The mountains are composed of a lifeless layer of stones, the multi-colored colors of which are a very mysterious creation of nature. You can find an accumulation of paleobotanical objects of flora, representatives of subtropical forms of ancient plants.
Blue ("lunar landscape"), red, white, pink, green slopes, intricately cut by erosion, are so extraordinary that it is impossible to look away. The reason for this bizarre mountain landscape is that the mountains are sedimentary.
The sculptural work of temporary streams flowing down from the mountains in these places is unabated.
