Behind the mountain are the ruins of the ancient city of Hursangal At the foot of Mount Beshbarmag there is a holy place called “Pir Khidir Zundzha”, where travelers stop for prayers and worship.

The forest of Qachrash is one of the most picturesque and lively corners of Guba. The peculiarity of this area is given by the mysterious forest through which the road to Qachrash passes. It seems that the rays of the sun never penetrate this dense forest. In the magical forest, as in childhood, “the trees are so big” that the crown is not visible. Even in the most unbearable summer heat, it is always cool here – mountain streams of the bubbling Gudyalchay River with a roar go down and amaze with their grandeur. You'll get the chance to take some unique pictures in the middle of nature.
