If you believe the reviews of Anapchan, the parrot will “help” stabilize the pressure, and the squirrel will eliminate the pain in the joints (for this you need to touch the corresponding figure).
- Russian gate: from the Turkish fortress (built in 1783), consisting of 7 bastions and 3 gates, only the eastern one - the Russian gate - has survived. In 1996, a stele was erected here with the Order For the Caucasus depicted on it.
