Excursion to the mountains "The origins of the Vainakh reconquests"

After the campaigns of Tamerlane (Timur Leng – Timur chrometz) to the North Caucasus, the Vainakhs had to leave the plain and go to natural fortresses, which were the mountains and gorges of the Caucasian ridge. After a certain time, the return of the Vainakhs to the plain began. Our journey will take place in the places of residence of the Vainakhs, that is, the place of origins of the Vainakh ethnic group in the 14-15 centuries. You and I are going to go to places like this.

Mushichu is a region of mountains located after the beginning of alpine meadows on the slopes of brutal mountains. Terkhi is a unique place of confluence of two tributaries of the Gikh River, framed in a narrow gorge by tall rocks. Nasha is the common name of settlements stretched in the magnificent convolutions of the Caucasian ridge, which you get through a natural arch on the highest point of the mountain. Galanchozh is famous for its lake of the same name. The Emerald Lake is surrounded by amazing landscapes of high mountains.

And this is only part of the origins of the Vainakh peoples that you will get acquainted with on this journey.
