Dzheyrakho-Assinsky Nature Reserve, towers and fortresses of medieval Mountainous Ingushetia.
The Erzi Tower Complex is one of the largest tower complexes in Ingushetia.

Continuation of the tour:
The Erzya Nature Reserve, whose name translates as "eagle", is located in two districts of Ingushetia – Sunzhensky and Dzheyrakhsky.
The Egical is one of the largest medieval tower complexes.
A long time ago, the tower town of Egikal was a fairly crowded place and was considered the center of the administrative and commercial life of the Middle Ages.
People have lived here for many centuries, and the dead were buried here – not only underground, but also in ground-based crypts.
Some of the crypts reach 3 floors in height and contain the remains of more than 200 people.
Targim refers to the castle–type tower settlements, which were built in the XV—XVII centuries.
Targim is not only an ancient tower complex, but also an abandoned village located in relative proximity to an architectural landmark.
Khamkhi – the tower buildings of which have a severe monumental appearance, are erected on a steep rocky slope.
The temple of Thaba-Yerdy is one of the oldest early Christian temples in Ingushetia, most likely built in the eighth century AD. It is not known exactly when the temple of Thaba-Yerda was built. There are also disputes about its name – some scientists believe that it translates as "our faith", others – "our shrine", and others are sure that the name means "2,000 saints". Linguists have not yet come to a common denominator.
Vnushki is the winner of the contest "7 Wonders of Russia". A recognized masterpiece of medieval tower architecture, and a special pride of the Ingush. Now it's hard to imagine how much effort the builders had to put into building five centuries ago to create a four-storey complex in such a difficult place to build. The place was chosen not by chance, it is the junction point of mountain gorges, in ancient times one of the sections of the Great Silk Road passed here.
