Sights of Crimea: the most beautiful places

Crimea abounds in beautiful places for recreation. We offer you a small list of the 10 most beautiful places in the Crimea, which are worth visiting at least once in your life.

  1. The Valley of Ghosts is located on the western slope of the southern portion of the Demerdzhi mountain range. Here, naturally, cliffs of the most bizarre shape were formed - cornices and niches, bastion and mushroom rocks. Particularly impressive is the valley in the pre-dawn and dusk hours.
  2. The Bay of Balaklava is not far from Sevastopol. A few decades ago, the tourist entrance to Balaklava was very difficult - it was here that the military submarine base was located. In addition, in the territory of Balaklava is located the ancient fortress of Cembalo - also a very interesting object to visit.
  3. All fans of diving, windsurfing and kiting are shown to visit Cape Tarhankut - a place with the cleanest in Crimea water.
  4. New World. Three new-world bays - almost the most popular among tourists place in the Crimea. It is here that you can swim on the royal beach, where Nicholas II rested, and visit the places of filming of the legendary films "Pirates of the Twentieth Century", "Three Plus Two" and "Amphibian Man".
  5. Cape Meganom - a peninsula on the peninsula. Among the local inhabitants, the cape is known as the "Crimean Tunisia", because this is one of the sunniest places in the Crimea. Despite the wide popularity, the beaches of Meganom are quite deserted - most of it is not populated.
  6. Vorontsov Palace. Pearl of the Crimean monuments of architecture. Magnificent alleys, a wonderful park, fountains, swans on the lake - it is simply impossible to describe the entire charm of this place with words. It is worth saying that the architect of the palace, Eduard Blor, later designed separate parts of Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey. If you have enough time - visit the palace library. This place undeservedly deprived of the attention of tourists, meanwhile it stores a lot of very interesting documents.
  7. Tauric Chersonesos. Despite the prevailing opinion among the tourists, the ancient Greek city has survived quite well - a barrack, a temple with arkosolia, a tower of Zeno, a residential quarter, a chapel, crypts, a city gate - there really is something to see. Be sure to visit the Reed Bay in Sevastopol (there are the ruins of Chersonesos).
  8. The Khan Palace in Bakhchisaray. The most picturesque palace of Crimea. After visiting the palace, try real Tatar food in local restaurants, and also go to the plantation of lavender and Kazanlik rose, which are located nearby.
  9. Koktebel. The village has long been a real tourist Mecca for all artists and connoisseurs of beautiful landscapes. In autumn in Koktebel there is a jazz festival - also a very interesting event.
  10. Livadia Palace. The building was erected for the Russian imperial family and to this day attracts thousands of tourists from all over the world.

The Crimea is full of interesting, beautiful places - do not limit yourself to just a couple of long familiar beaches.

Do not miss the opportunity to visit the beautiful Foros church, the legendary Yalta embankment, the ancient cave cities of the Crimea and the famous Crimean caves - a lot of unforgettable impressions you are guaranteed.

Most beautiful places in Crimea are very convenient to visit by car.
