2 capitals of Ingushetia

We leave Vladikavkaz and drive to Ingushetia, to the city of Magas. At the entrance you are greeted by the Alanian Gate, the arch of the city and the symbol of all of Ingushetia. There is an observation platform at the top, so stop and go and look at the city from above.

The second prominent place in Ingushetia is the Concord Tower. This tower is not just the tallest building in Ingushetia, it is the tallest observation tower in the entire North Caucasus, and it also has a glass floor and walls! Climb up to the height of 85 m and tickle your nerves. And then exhale and see the panorama of the city from the main observation platform of the republic.
Keep in mind the opening hours: 10:00-16:00.

The Presidential Palace, the fountain and flowerbeds are all on Magas' main square. Look at the majestic palace building, admire the fountain and stroll around the square.

Now go to Nazran, the second capital of Ingushetia. You must see this majestic memorial to memory and glory. The Ingush are very proud of it. The imposing size of the complex commemorates the victims of political repression and the cavalry regiment, as well as the glory of the heroes of Ingushetia. It makes an indelible impression.

There's no way to come to Ingushetia without tasting the national cuisine! Go to Nana-Nasyare ethno-café for lunch. Here, traditional Ingush cuisine will be waiting for you at the highest level at affordable prices. And the national style and entourage give the interior a special flavour.

Do you want to get to a real French castle in the middle of the Caucasus? Then on your way to Pyatigorsk, make a stop near Nalchik. Turn onto R-288 and head to the village of Chernaya Rechka, you won't pass by this unexpected piece of France - Chateau-Herken. Go to the chateau by the graceful bridge and watch the swans on the lake. It's not just a chateau. It is an elite winery that produces the best wine in the country. There is also a tasting room and a restaurant.
