A valuable paleobotanical and geological natural monument with an area of about 150 hectares is noticeable from afar. It appears suddenly and surprises as if you had encountered a dinosaur. The landscape is surreal. It feels like a time machine took you back millions of years. Like a mirage, multi-colored castles suddenly appear from layered sand and clay rocks of the Paleogene epoch. Each of them is bizarrely washed out by the rains. Greenish, gray, red-brown and yellow clays. Here it is, Ashutas, towering over the yellow plain and the green delta of the Black Irtysh.
