Is Dagestan Republic in Russia fine for travel?
I'm looking into planning a multi month road trip similar to the Mongol rally but with enough time to actually explore the places I'm in. I want to visit Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Mongolia and to do this route I would need to cross into Russia twice, once from Azerbaijan to get to Kazakhstan and the next from Kazakhstan to get to Mongolia. I would prefer to go through Iran and then Turkmenistan but I'm not sure how realistic that is because I know getting a visa for Turkmenistan can be rather difficult, especially when you're not apart of a tour group.
I already asked on the Russian and I'm getting conflicting answers but it seems the majority are suggesting to avoid Dagestan Republic. I've been told that it's become rather dangerous even compared to Chechnya. At first I thought it was blatant racism towards the Muslims in the region but I'm also concerned whether or not they're right. I've never used wikitravel before and I have no idea how accurate it is but that site pegged Dagestan as a dangerous region in Russia.
So I'm curious to hear from others who may have experience traveling Russia, how safe is Dagestan? Also if anyone is well versed in travel throughout Russia, what are some regions best to avoid?
