Last summer I managed to visit the colorful corner of the Crimea - Balaclava. This quiet old town charmed with its chamberiness, cleanliness and comfort.
The main attraction is the remains of the ancient medieval Genoese fortress Cembalo.

Narrow, hidden from the sea bay - a quiet haven for boats and boats. Here you can order a boat trip along with a tour of the bay.
Monument to famous Russian writer Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin. In 1904, he lived in Balaclava, wrote stories and stories here, helped sailors and was friends with local fishermen.
Embankment of Balaclava has to rest, you can walk, go to a cafe, sit on a bench, admiring the sea.
Outdoor cafe invites guests to enjoy a delicious lunch and be sure to try the Crimean ice cream. Dairy products in the Crimea are very natural and tasty!
Nearby is the Temple of the 12 Apostles, built in the XVIII century.

Balaclava is considered one of the districts of Sevastopol, although in fact it is a separate city.
Monument to Balaclava the Cat
That such monuments are found! Cat with fish. Until now, cats are where
fishermen with fishing rods ...
Trading on the waterfront near the beautiful houses right under the balconies
You can also walk along the stalls, buy souvenirs and resort goods.
And this is how the coast of the bay looks like from the sea. Steep cliffs. Very cool, tall and unapproachable. That is why fortresses were built on such a place. From the sea, do not approach.
The depth of the bay reaches 35 meters. Very deep. There are no wide beaches for swimming. There are secluded places for recreation, but they are reached by a special flight on boats. And then back. The local population is swimming in a small well-maintained beach within the precincts of the town.
Thank you for your attention, I hope you liked my story and you also want to travel to that amazing place. Until new meetings.
