The Ural Mountains are a mountain range that runs roughly north-south through western Russia. They are usually considered the natural boundary between Europe and Asia.
They are also known as the Great Stone Belt in Russian history and folklore. The Urals extend 2,498 km from the Kazakh steppes along the northern border of Kazakhstan to the coast of the Arctic ocean. The Urals highest peak is Mount Narodnaya (1,895 m).
Erosion has exposed considerable mineral wealth in the Urals, including gems such as topaz and beryl. The Virgin Komi Forests in the northern Urals are recognized as a World Heritage site. Geographers have divided the Urals into five regions: South, Middle, North, Subarctic and Arctic. Sections of the south and middle regions are completely forested.
The Urals are among the worlds oldest extant mountain ranges. For its age of 250 to 300 million years, the elevation of the mountains is unusually high. There are a lot of beautiful lakes in the mountains.
