The dense forest is an attribute widely spread in the mythology of many peoples, in particular among the Tarars. It is a symbol of uncertainty and danger.

In it, the most important events of the narrative take place, the transformation of heroes. Unknown trees with magical fruits grow here, mysterious creatures (Shurale, azhdakha, diyu, etc.) live.

Through Kara urman, the hero enters another world, often Kara Urman himself personifies the image of another world.
