Stone Sanctuary
The rectangular stone sanctuary in the Urupsky District of the Karachay-Cherkess Republic is located directly on the shore of one of the Zagedan Lakes, surrounded by picturesque mountain slopes and alpine meadows. The structure is constructed of large stones laid without mortar—a classic example of ancient dry stonework.
Judging by its shape and location, the sanctuary may have served as a site for rituals or worship associated with nature and water. This site combines natural beauty with historical and cultural value, attracting researchers and tourists.
