Sacrifice to Dragon Askiz - Askiz is a river in Khakassia, not far from which there is the Qazanovsky Dragon rock. It is called Qazanovsky because there is a village nearby, founded by Khan Qazan. On the other side of the mountain, life is in full swing - people have settled there, tourists come. However, strangers do not rise here. Until now, sacrifices are performed under the dragon's head. - Azat Minnekaev
