Khinalig trip planner

This picturesque village is located at over 2,000 m (6,500 ft) above sea level and it is said to be connected with the story of Noah: according to legend, when Noah saw this high, flat terrain, he dropped anchor and told everyone to leave the Ark. There are about 380 houses, many between 200-300 years old. Since the slopes here are very steep, the houses are built very close together, the roof of one house acting as the courtyard for the one located above. The locals are descendants of one of the tribes of Caucasian Albania and they speak a completely unique language. Khinalig village is known not just for these ancient traditions, but also, apparently, for the fact that Bigfoot has been sighted here.
