The construction of the underground structure started in 1957. The remarkable place is that the underground premises have an area of ​​5000 square kilometers, and according to some sources, even more. In the mid-nineties, more precisely in 1994, the telephone station was stopped.

Unique landscape and architectural forms were formed as a result of the eruption of the Karadag volcano. 1500000000 years ago there was an eruption of this volcano, and when it ended, the frozen lava formed the forms of the landscape that can be seen today. Since 1979, unique plants and animals that are listed in the Red Book have been protected on this territory.

It was in one of these temples that the Grand Duke Vladimir accepted the peasant faith. At the end of the nineteenth century, in 1892, the museum was opened. He collected all the artifacts of the ancient world, and in particular from this place. Later on this territory was opened a state reserve.
