Tofalaria is a mysterious and hard-to-reach land in the west of the Irkutsk region. A real country within a country, the size of El Salvador. More than twenty thousand square kilometers of taiga, swamps and inaccessible mountains of the Eastern Sayan. Here, in the wilderness, live the Tofalars or as they call themselves Tofs - descendants of ancient tribes that roamed the south of Siberia.
