Magas (Магас) is the capital of the Republic of Ingushetia in the Russian Federation, located in the North Caucasus region near the border with the Republic of Chechnya, and is one of the youngest capitals of Russia (founded in 1995). With a population of about 15,000, the small city is the political, economic and cultural center of Ingushetia, despite its small size. The city's name is derived from the medieval ancient Ingush word for "city of the sun", symbolizing light and hope. The city is a blend of modern planning and traditional Caucasian architecture, with landmarks such as the Republican Government Building and the National Museum, as well as agricultural and light industries, and is a transportation node connecting the Transcaucasus region. As a place of inheritance of Ingushetia culture, it has preserved rich folk traditions and historical memories, showing the unique regional charm of the North Caucasus.
