Battle Tower No. 2, Itum-Kali District, 13th-16th centuries.
The Bugaroy battle tower is located on a mountain slope, on the eastern outskirts of the village of Bugaroy, along the Zumsoy-akhk River.
It once served as a watchtower and signal tower, providing visual communication with neighboring villages and monitoring the valley.
Today, the tower is partially destroyed; only the northwestern corner of the stonework remains.
Despite this, the structure blends seamlessly into the surrounding landscape and remains an interesting attraction for tourists, history buffs, and hikers.

Kezenoy historical and architectural complex "Aldam-Gezi." 12th-19th centuries. Vedensky District, formerly the village of Kazenoy.
In the mountains of Chechnya, not far from the high-altitude lake Kezenoy-Am, lies the ancient complex "Aldam-Gezi." It stretches along a mountainside and includes the ruins of a citadel, a residential tower (Daud's Tower), and a mosque.
All that formed the basis of a medieval mountain settlement. The stone walls and remains of buildings blend beautifully into the mountainous terrain.
Today, the complex is partially destroyed, but even in its current state, it leaves a powerful impression and allows one to imagine how life here flourished many centuries ago.
