Located on a cliff on Cap Preston-Todor, the palace of Lastochkino Gnezdo is the emblem of the region.

Despite its medieval appearance, the building was built in 1912 by Sherwood, the special architect of the German baron von Steingel. After the earthquake in 1927, part of the palace collapsed in the sea. Today there is only a small house 10 m wide, 20 m long, a romantic vestige with a very Expensive Italian restaurant.

To get there. 10 km west of Yalta. Buses 32, 26, 27 stop here.
