This sacred cave in the Bayanaul Mountains lies three kilometers from Lake Zhasybay. Known as Konyr Aulie or the Aulie Tas cave, it has long been regarded as the blessed heart of Bayanaul.

Water constantly collects in a cauldron-like hollow deep inside the cave; it is considered sacred and healing for the sick. Mashhur Zhusup praised the sanctity of this place and called it "the place where saints ask Allah for His decree."
