My thoughts about Qobustan
Qobustan is one of the significant regions where people lived in primitive times. There are constant figures of women, hunters, and some animals on the rocks in the mountains. This place was also a residential area. My guess is that the Caspian Sea was very close to here at that time, now the waters have receded a bit.

If I were a follower of primitive times, I could find many reasons to praise Qobustan. One day, I will try to draw a picture on a tough rock, and if I draw it better than them, it means human intelligence was at a higher level back then. If I draw like them, human intelligence is probably generally fixed, but due to the accumulation of scientific culture, we are in this state.
Mud Volcano
The gases and liquids coming from underground cause the muddy clay layer to bubble. In fact, I think there's some hot air in the gas that comes out, and I could see some vapor rising. At first, I thought it was hot mud, but when I put my hand into it, I noticed it was colder than the ambient temperature. I even wondered if I could get into this mud. Some Russian tourists apparently get into this mud, and I envied them. If it were me, maybe I could risk getting into it during the summer months, but right now, I can't be bothered to do so. Because with a muddy body, I can't go anywhere. There's nowhere to take a shower. It's quite natural here, and it surprises me.
Be careful, your pants, shoes, and clothes will get 100% dirty. Don't come here with clothes you definitely value.
