Going farrther up through the gorge, one can see steep cliffs that look like ruins of ancient fortresses. There are also the peaks Aitmatov (4650 meters) and Kyrgyzstan (4860 meters) which always attract tourists’ attention. The Alamedin Gorge is famous for its hot mineralized springs, of which there is a small spa resort based on.
