North Ossetia: Stories, Legends, Tragedies

For Browsing

North Ossetia is not the most popular destination for tourists. Topaz mountain rivers, so clear that if you dip your hands in them, you can see the white marks on your nails. An endless piercing chain of mountains. Protected springs. And the people — special. Wherever you go for a vacation in North Ossetia, fresh, steaming cheese pies will already be waiting for you upon arrival. A different mentality: you are not a guest — you are a relative who has finally come home. Local guides through stone canyons, cave fortresses, and the Midagrabin waterfalls say that Ossetia doesn’t immediately make you one of its own, but later it will come back to you many times as vivid memories in your dreams, and you will want to return here again.
