FORTRESS AND CITY OF CHOUFOUT-KALE

Monuments to visit

A path connects directly from the monastery of the Dormition to the Site-Kale site. The room is very tiring and in summer it is better to wait for the hottest hours of the day to climb, which lasts an hour and a half for the good walkers. The fortress of Choufout-Kale was built by the Karaites karaites and then invested by the troops tatar after the th century. The rugged ascent has the merit of offering an unparalleled perspective on the region, including the great Crimean canyon and its white sandstone cliffs. The fortress bears witness to the mix of religions and cultures. Jewish temples clash with the mausoleum of Dzhanike-Khanyoum, the daughter of a Khan of Crimea, and the military defences planned by the Russians. The rock on which the fortress is built is littered with underground souterrains used as sanctuaries for the Karaites who lived in the valley. A water circulation system, still visible, allowed for the drowning of the attackers and this fortress was one of the last strong places in Crimea to be taken by the Tatars.

PUSHKIN STATUE

Columns and statues to see

E's bust is proudly mounted. The history of this man is closely linked to the city. Indeed, his writings had been censored, he had experienced an exile in Crimea in Odessa and then in Chisinau. Count Vorontsov was appointed governor of the «new Russia» (he had his winter residence in Odessa and summer in Yalta— the famous Palace of Count Vorontsov). This is an illustrious character of particular hatred to Pushkin who had the audacity to make the court to the wife of the Earl. He gave him the task of simple secretary, when Pushkin was already known throughout Russia as a great poet. In Odessa Pushkin wrote several poems, such as the Fontaine Fountain and The Gypsies. He also started his famous Eugene Onegin. The Odessites are very proud of Pushkin's passage in their city, which is why a stele bears the inscription: " À, from the citizens of Odessa. " Not far from the monument is a cannon, in memory of the Crimean War, during which a wing bombed the city in 1854.

ASKANIYA NOVA NATURAL PARK

Parks and gardens

it is one of the most surprising and original places in Ukraine. The German baron von Val @ had the crazy idea in the th century of forming a unique nature-safari reserve in Europe on the steppes of Ukraine, bringing the most original animals. On 2 300 ha, the reserve includes a zoo, a biological garden, and, in exclusive terms, preserved virgin steppe, only place in Europe where the steppe retains its original appearance. We discover more than sixty species of birds, from Australia's black swan in the ostrich, but also from llamas, zebras and emus. To note, this is the only place in Europe where you can see American buffalo. Moreover, there is also the famous horse of Prjevalski, discovered in 1879 in Mongolia by a Russian explorer that gave him his name.
