Ancient Petroglyphs

The facility is an hour's drive from Tashkent by the Tashkent-Chinorkent express train, which is great! By itself (such ancient drawings!) interesting, but:
- it is impossible to understand from the road at what point it is necessary to turn off (no signs or other identification marks)
- it is not protected from the influence of the environment in any way: the drawings are almost invisible..
- in addition to the description with the date, I would like to see a copy of the drawings (the drawing on the tablet) in order to understand what was originally drawn in general (obviously, when these artifacts were discovered, they were clearly clearer) and try to find all the images (this is especially important for children)
- on the same side (if you walk along the cliff forward to Charvak) there are huge plane trees (according to the tablets, 4-7 centuries AD!)

In addition to the reservoir, the attraction also offers food.
The locals call these "petroglyphs," and the plaque says that they were carved by an ancient man as early as 100,000 years ago BC. It's hard to verify, but you can make out the goats on the walls. The place is fenced off and now belongs to the Chinar restaurant, where you will also be shown the chinar tree (oriental sycamore), which is already 1000 years old. This may be true, some trees live up to 2000 years. Everything is on the way, it's worth stopping by and taking a look.

Of course, the drawings are poorly visible, as already mentioned in the comments, but the rock is very picturesque, there are small caves.

The drawings are clearly visible if you lightly pour water on the wall. There are a lot of drawings, very graphic. Now the wall is fenced off from vandals.

One of the most interesting places in Khojikent where you can see rock carvings of various animals, etc., etc. many more things are hidden underground, now this place is located on the territory of the Chinars cafe.
I remember how in my school years the history teacher held an open lesson at this place showing these drawings. It was very interesting.

The landscape just flew away, the drawings were ruined by the "savages" of our time.
