What to visit during your holidays in Alushta
Embankment and Rotunda
If you come to the seaside resort, then there will be a beautiful embankment here. This is the best promenade and just a romantic place near the sea. You will find many cafes for every taste, bars and discos with live music. No evening here is complete without sellers of souvenirs, local wines and fruits.
The symbol of Alushta is a snow-white rotunda near the sea, now it pleases the eye, as at the time of its creation immediately after the war, when it was so hard that I wanted a positive for the Crimeans. None of the photos in Alushta is complete without an elegant rotunda against the background of the sunset.
Valley of Ghosts
Agree, the name of the place is not only mysterious, but also fascinating. This is the name of the rocks of an interesting shape of the western slope of The South Demerdzhi Mountain. For more than 40 years it has been a natural geological monument. What amazes this place most tourists? Natural forces – wind and water – for many years carved out of the rocks bizarre figures of people, animals and just strange creatures. It is noteworthy that at different times of the day they look different, and it depends on the angle of the light falling on them. There are more than a hundred figures, and you can wander there and admire them all day. In Soviet times, episodes of the beloved comedy “The Prisoner of the Caucasus” were filmed here.
Palace of Princess Gagarina
The beautiful palace (Romanesque style) begins its history in the early 20th century, and its project was created by the same architect who built the Livadia Palace of Yalta. It was built for Princess Gagarina, and the interiors were richly decorated with ceramics and marble from Italy. The structure turned out to be “international”, because the rest of the materials were also transported from Germany and France.
Guests call it a medieval castle standing in a cypress park, with its battlements and gabled roof with weathervanes.
Park “Crimea in miniature”
For those who have not been to the Crimea before, but want to learn about all the sights of the peninsula, a visit to this park is a great idea. All known places and monuments are executed in miniature, in the form of models. It is not difficult to find a park, it was opened in the heart of the city about 10 years ago. Wander around the area and see in detail all 45 objects – excellent copies of museums, palaces, castles and temples. In the evening, it is especially beautiful here, when all the layouts are highlighted. We are sure that after visiting the “Crimea in miniature” you will certainly want to see everything in real size.
Mount Ayu-Dag
This majestic mountain rises above the entire southern Crimea and is located between Yalta and Alushta. As a special natural object, it is protected by the state. Locals call it “bear – mountain”, because it is very similar to lying on the belly of a bear. It is said that initially the mountain was supposed to become a volcano, but nature wanted otherwise. Its slopes are covered with oaks and pistachio trees more than a few hundred years old. You can visit here not only with an excursion, but also necessary.
Dacha “Golubka”
Undoubtedly, this is one of the most romantic places in Alushta. In the middle of the 19th century, the villa was built by one of the richest insurance companies, and later it passed into private hands and became a dacha, the most beautiful in Alushta. This place is famous for the fact that there was a meeting of the future Emperor Nicholas II and his future wife Alix. This event forever remained in the memory of the young couple, and on the facade of the building there is even a reminder of this – a memorial plaque. Nowadays, there is a library here.
Marble Cave
Excursions to the caves – a new and extremely interesting activity, especially since such beauty is unlikely to be seen anywhere. This Crimean cave is not at a depth, but on the contrary at an altitude of almost a kilometer, and it is rightfully considered the natural “highlight” of the peninsula. This is a whole system of so-called galleries and halls in which scientists once worked. Now during excursions tourists move along safe paths with handrails and lighting.
It is interesting to know that the Marble Cave is one of the five most beautiful caves in the world with unique crystals on the vaults, stalagmites resembling fabulous creatures. The temperature in the cave (+9 degrees), high humidity – all this together leads to interesting acoustics, which not many people can learn about. Be sure to come and appreciate the beauty with your own eyes.
Aquapark “Almond Grove”
A beautiful water park, loved by many, is built in the heart of the city, it works in the best weather season – from June to September. The capacity of the park and all the attractions is huge – 1500 people at a time, but here you can not only frolic on the slides, but also relax and sunbathe on the beach, visit the jacuzzi, sauna, solarium, gym or massage sessions.
The southern coast of Crimea, the resort of Alushta has prepared for you many interesting places that you need to see at least once in your life. Come here, book a “Golden Resort” hotel, leave worries and enjoy a real good rest!
