A beautiful temple. There is a small square with a monument nearby. You can go inside. The entrance to the temple is from the courtyard.

Decorates the city. You can enter the temple. But we didn't go because we were wearing shorts. There are still many traces of war around the fortress, the house opposite is all like a sieve

The Republic of South Ossetia /The State of Alania/, the capitals of the mountains. Tskhinval. The territory is 3900 sq. km. The population is about 50 thousand people, most of them have Russian citizenship. The currency is the Russian ruble. On the night of August 8, 2008, the Georgian army invaded the territory of the South Ossetia, began shelling Tskhinvali and settlements with artillery and multiple launch rocket systems. Russian peacekeepers were killed and wounded. On the afternoon of August 8, the President of the Russian Federation announced the beginning of an "operation to force Georgia to peace" and on the same day, units of the Russian Army were introduced into the territory of South Ossetia. The fighting continued until August 12 inclusive. I will not talk about the war, the number of destroyed Georgian military equipment and other weapons. There is a more interesting topic - war trophies / only those that were completely in good condition and were abandoned by the retreating Georgian army/: Armored vehicles: 65 T-72 tanks; 6 Turkish armored cars "Cobra"; 20 IFVs; 9 armored personnel carriers; 10 air defense installations. Artillery: 4 Czech self-propelled howitzers "Dana"; 5 self-propelled guns 2C7 "Python";? D-3 howitzers; 15 anti-tank guns; 5 mortars. Military transport: 5 Humvee all-terrain vehicles; 12 Land Rover all-terrain vehicles; 80 KrAZ-6510 vehicles, dozens of trucks and cars. There are countless small arms: about 4 thousand AK-47 and AK-4 assault rifles, hundreds of units of American, German, Israeli and Czech production. In addition, the local population "tried their best" and dragged countless more small arms to their homes. By the end of the "Peace Enforcement Operation", the Russian Army reached the suburbs of Tbilisi, on the way they entered the port of Poti. 2 Navy missile boats and 3 ships of the Georgian Coast Guard were captured there. When, a few days later, our troops left, the warships accidentally burned down, along with them burned warehouses with tens of thousands of sets of NATO military uniforms for the Georgian army and humanitarian aid from the United States. To date, the United States has demanded that Russia return the "military property of the American army" - 5 Hummer jeeps, 1 Land Rover, military communications equipment and a military navigation system, as well as humanitarian aid. Well, you know the answer, it's an old Indian word for a hut - "figs for you" is called. It is a pity that there is not enough space for photos.
