The authorities in Chechnya have created the first beach for Muslim women in an effort to tone down tensions in the region of Grozny. The beach on Tuesday and is enclosed by 1.8 meter fence, while all women using it have to adhere to the strict Muslim dress code, which forbids disrespectful attire. This is one of the steps taken by the head of the Chechen Republic, Razman Kadyrov, who is backed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, in his efforts to restore a sense of normalcy after many years of bloody conflict in the country. Kadyrov also plans to construct an entertainment centre in the same area to support the erection of a tourist resort in the future. A male only beach is also on the cards down the line.
