The Pskem River or also known as Pishkom is located in Tashkent Province in the Pskem most wonderful mountains. The origins of this river are in the glaciers of Kazakhstan's Talas Alatau range in the West Tien Shan and it flows through Pskem Valley towards Lake Charvak. The proverb "everything changes ' acquires a new meaning while you are here. If you travel to this remote area of the 4500 m high mountains, along the rivers of Choralma ormaydantal , you will discover a lot of evidence attesting to the fact that this place has been preserving its nature since the beginning of time. Many fossil plants and invertebrates such as mollusks m sponges and plychaete worms are clearly seen on the fractured surfaces of the stones , which are actually the sedimentary rocks. Therefore , this gem of Tashkent is not only visited for its beautiful scenery, but also for its ancient history. The archa or juniper forests are the main vegetable wealth of Pskem and inaccessible places , you can find some trees which are seven hundred years old. The forests include 2 types of juniper - the Zaravshan and semiglobosa.
People have inhabited the Pskem Valley since a long time. In the 12th century , Pskem dwellers were engaged in metal manufacture , agriculture and trade, because the caravan routes to the Talas Valley passed through Shakhjuvar town, a settlement built on the left bank of the river. Archaeologists managed to excavate a small ancient fortress and furnace slag in the middle of course of the river of Choralma. the Furnace consumed juniper wood from the forests , used to smelt metals since the flame produced was extremely hot. Nowadays , the juniper forests are under the state protection. Despite being visited by tourists for many different activities such as mountaineering , rafting and kayaking at the river , yurting along the route and much more, Pskem is still a perfect natural habitat for its flora and fauna. Fairly big herds of Central Asian ibexes can be found on the rocky slopes of the Pskem Valley, shadowed by snow leopards which are now becoming rare. the shrubbery thickets are native habitats of boards ,brown bears , Siberian roe deer, wolves, porcupine and badgers. with any luck, you can see some steppe peonies and wild onions in this fairy place, as well as Graig's and Kaufmann's tulips.

Pskem is a land of high mountains and swift water stream ,
as clear as crystal . while standing on the bank of Pskem River, you can watch
dozens of tons of water rushing past which captivates and hypnotizes you. Under
the influence of sunlight, the colour of the water changes from sky blue to
emerald green within a day.
