The attraction of the Caucasus at Christmas

Christmas tour of the republics of the North Caucasus. At this time, they, already charming, become even more attractive: cozy streets of cities, covered with snow, in the gentle illumination of yellow lanterns, majestic mountains, pine trees, from which flakes of snow fall off every now and then.

The motionless surface of Lake Kezenoi-Am, proud Grozny shining with millions of lights, ancient tower complexes of Ingushetia (Egikal, Vnushki, Erzi), majestic Vladikavkaz, picturesque Kurtatinsky gorge.

The route passes through the border area. Citizens of the CIS countries need to issue a border pass in advance.
