Aravan, Kyrgyzstan

The petroglyphs have an important role in regional folklore and have become a pilgrimage site for Muslims in the Fergana Valley.

The Celestial Horses site itself is just near the local hospital when you are about to enter Aravan, on your right hand side when coming from Osh.

Today, the horse carvings and nearby spring are still a local pilgrimage site and there is a small mosque.

A huge entrance in the cave in the form of arc with a height of 15 m and a length of basement 25 m is located in the rocky group on almost plumb wall at the altitude of 1100 m. The cave consists of 3 halls of different volume, connected with corridors and narrow man holes.

Quaint forms of different colors from white and cream to dark-brown create a unique fairy interior of the hall.

The length of the cave is 380 m. To the south of Aravan is the Dangi Canyon, which is dissected by the river Aravansay.
