The World List of Tangibles of Tourist Attraction
Translated to the "Place of Embroidered Stones," the Saimaluu-Tash petroglyphs
are located in a narrow canyon on the slopes of the Fergansky Mountains,
overlooking the Fergana Valley. The fantastically-carved and painted designs on
the basaltic rocks are the largest collection of mysterious artwork in Central
Asia, and there are about 90,000 different designs, with the oldest dating back
to the early Bronze Age. The images represent both humans and animals, as well
as hunting and village scenes, religious rituals, demons, gods, the
domestication of wild animals, and migration scenes.
