Zagatala and Balakan

Peri Qala

Yukhari Chardakhlar, Zagatala District

An unusual defensive structure set into a steep rock face near Yukhari Chardakhlar.

The relationship between the structure and the sheer cliff is central to the visit. A distant view and an attempt to reach the building are very different undertakings; do not improvise a climb from a map search.

This is a remote or difficult-to-access location. First confirm whether a visit is possible, any permissions and a suitable guide; a directory entry is not a prepared trail.
