The archaeological monument is in Garabakhlar village of Kengerli region. Naringala is located in the center of this triangle-shaped monument. The castle is encircled by walls shaved from rock. Wall remainders reach 1m height in some parts. Walls have been built from big stones in the sides and the gaps have been filled with small capacious rocks. The castle is environed with two-layered walls in the south. Total area amounts 1125 sqm. Due to its small capacity, it is estimated that the castle was a watch-tower. It is settled in a strategic location going to the village. Structure and architectural techniques are peculiar to monuments of the early Iron Age. Taking into account its architectural techniques, the monument is estimated to be built in about the 1st millennium B.C.
