Kalaroos Caves
Kupwara district, India
The Kalaroos Caves, also known as Qil-e-Roos (lit. 'Russian Fort'), are an ancient network of caves located in the Lolab Valley, Kupwara district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. The site has been the subject of various unverified claims, largely due to the belief that the caves connect the Kashmir Valley with Russia (or Rous). Local legends suggest that the caves may contain secret tunnels leading to the neighbouring countries; however, these assertions remain unverified, and no archaeological research has been conducted to substantiate them. The site is situated at an elevation of approx. 1,900 metres (6, 200 ft) above sea level.
