Day 1
Welcome to Grozny!
Arrival to Grozny.
Meet and greet our guide.
Excursion «Grozny is a city-phoenix» dedicated to his restoration from the ashes after so long -run war. Grozny was so badly damaged that, at some point, there was even talk of moving the capital to another Chechen city, Gudermes.
But then these buildings would have remained, the unusual design has made them part of a new era and a new beginning.
Walking excursion to the mosque Heart of Chechnya. This is a Shrine for Muslims. Opened in 2008 in the center of Grozny giant mosque, named after Akhmat-Hadji Kadyrov – the center of attraction of pilgrims. The total area of the temple is 5000 square meters, capacity – more than 10 000 people.
The interior is made of marble, everything sparkles with gold, the rooms inside are covered with long-pile carpets. The design of the 36 majestic bronze and gold chandeliers is based on Islamic symbols.
Lunch in the city.
Walking excursion to the Church named after Michael the Archangel.

Departure for an excursion to lake Kezenoy Am.

Houses with stone arches, corrals, similar to the dungeons of castles, an ancient cemetery, where the stones are covered with signs of ancient alphabets and drawings-all this testifies to the ties of the region with the Greek missionaries and representatives of other civilizations.
