Jeyrakh-Assa Reservation
The Jeyrakh-Assa Reservation comprises 18 historic settlements of the Vainakh people in Ingushetia. The area is known for its stone architecture: funerary crypts, Pagan and Christian shrines and temples, and Vainakh towers. These towers were used as dwellings, others had a military purpose; some combined both functions.
