Khan Tengri
The tallest mountain peaks usually became sacred places. Since the time of the Turkic Khaganate, this is "Otgontenger" in Mongolia—perhaps, the "Otuken" of the old inscriptions, state ceremonies are held were. Among others: "Belukha" (or Üch-Sümer) in Russia's Altai, "Khan Tengri" alias Jengish Chokusu in Kyrgyzstan (not to be confused with the modern Khan Tengri), and "Burkhan Khaldun" in Mongolia, associated with the name of Genghis Khan. Symbolic mountains are man-made shrines-ovoos.
