It is best to start your journey along the Assi Plateau in the Turgen Valley. There are a large number of waterfalls of various sizes here. Cool water flows in almost all of them. After the valley, another attraction opens before your eyes. We are talking about the Assa Observatory in Turgen. It is here that one of the largest telescopes is installed, which is used to study astronomical and celestial bodies. There is nothing like the Assi Plateau in Turgen in the world. There are mounds on which you can find many drawings right on the rocks, various hieroglyphs, episodes that have come down from Ancient Times. Scientists and specialists are still puzzling over them.
