Things to see and do Partenit (Партенiт)

A seaside resort east of the Bear Mountain. Archaeologists refer to the human presence in the surrounding area since the stone age. The village of Partenit is mentioned in writings depicting Greek history dating from the th century. The village became the centre of an anti-Kazars uprising in the th century led by Bishop Ioan Gothic. One legend tells us that the relics of the latter, died in Asia Minor, returned by a miracle in Partenit to be buried in St. Pierre and Saint-Paul temple. At the time of the construction of the road in the th century to access the village, the ruins of the Basilica of the Holy Apostles were discovered. We found the soil in mosaic, the remains of foundations, walls and a tomb that was supposed to be Gothic, even if it was empty then. Despite this rich history, Partenit now resembles a modern seaside resort. If you do, don't forget to climb the Ayu-Dag mountain, a beautiful natural reserve.

Located at the foot of Mount Demerdzhi, a few kilometres east of Aloushta, this valley owes its name to the strange atmosphere that reigns there in the evening. The black mountains then leave clouds of fog. At the top of the mountain, the wind and shadows often reveal, according to the premises, a woman's silhouette. Because of the wind and erosion produced by sand, the rocks in the valley are spectacular and, indeed, resemble statues of human characters.

To visit the Ghosts Valley, you can take a marshroutka from the Routière bus station to the village of Luchistoe.
