    To Adygeya on the mountain roads

    Today will take your breath away not only from the numerous turns on the mountain roads and passes, but also from the stunning views. From Tuapse to Maykop it is better to drive through the Shahumyan pass, where you will be able to see the bizarrely shaped Indyuk Mountain, and at the final point walk around and get to know the capital of Adygea: the national museum, city squares, the cathedral mosque, monuments and monuments. And fried cheese and other Adygean national dishes will be waiting for you in the best places of Maykop.

    Indyuk

    Leave the hotel in the morning, today will be an interesting mountain road to Maikop. And the first stop on the way is Indyuk Mountain. The mountain is located on the territory of the reserve "Prichernomorsky", 40 km from Tuapse in the village "Turkey" of the same name. The mountain is known for its interesting shape as a turkey ridge and picturesque surroundings. It is therefore worth making a stop in the "Turkey" village to take a look at the quirky mountain.

    Shahumyan Pass

    You will take an alternative road to Maikop, bypassing Krasnodar. This road is mountainous, and the Shaumyan pass awaits you on the way. The length of the pass is 7 km. There is no asphalt surface, so you have to ride on the gravel. After the pass there is asphalt. The road itself has a lot of turns and beautiful mountain views. There will also be several viewpoints along the way.

    Maykopskaya Sobornaya Mechet'

    The main decoration of Maikop is its snow-white cathedral mosque with an azure dome and four minarets. Be sure to go inside, as it is one of the few mosques that is open to all comers regardless of faith. Just don't forget about the closed and modest dress code. You must cover your head and take off your shoes before entering.

    Friendship Square

    Next to the mosque there are 2 other important monuments of the city. So after visiting it, you can walk around Friendship Square. Reach the monument "Unity and Concord". This is a semblance of an Adyghe traditional hearth, which is a symbol of home, family and coziness. Then turn to the monument "Forever with Russia," which was erected in honor of Adygea's accession to Russia. The four-meter high monument consists of two warriors: Adygea and Russia.
