In this pic there is a famous stone. When we were coming close to it an enterprising young man rushed up to us and said,"Do you want to know about this stone?" and the people with us said, "how much do we have to pay you?" He said,"let me tell you my story and you decide how much." He proceeded to tell us about this rock. He said three kings ruled Kazakhstan but one of the three was the main king. An invading country wanted to take them over. the main king said if we all came together we can save our country. so the other 2 kings gave him command over all the armies and met at this spot with their armies, where the main king rallied the armies with his speech on this rock at this place, and they prevailed. the young man also said that if you walked around this rock seven times and made a wish that legend says your wish will come true. We paid the young man pretty good, he also had a stash of goodies, soda, popcoen, and candy, that we could purchase any of if we wanted. He looked to be between 12 and 15 years old and had a thriving business. Of course we walked around the rock seven times.
