Grove of dancing birches

The nature of Azakhstan is amazing not only in its variety but also in its immaculate creations. You know, almost every view of this country has its legend. One of these amazing places is a “dancing birch grove” in Borovoe National Park.

There are many legends on the appearance of this grove. One of them says that once upon a time in ancient times there were people who lived at the foot of Burabai Mountain and held festivals with various competitions, accompanied by songs and dances. Khan also wanted to look at these people, but he could not appear there as a leader because he knew that if they had seen him, they would have been confused. 

So he went on vacation with only a security guard, dressed in ordinary clothes. When the party was at its peak, the beautiful girls would appear in the clearing in the woods. Khan was so carried away that he ran and shouted “Long years to your beauty!” » The girls were so confused and frightened that they froze in one place, turning into white birch trees. To this day, the beauty of these girls in the form of graceful birch trees attracts both locals and tourists.
