Coast of Crimea on the map. Black and Azov Sea with cities and towns

After the Crimean peninsula became part of Russia, millions of tourists from all cities of our country immediately went and flew to its resorts. After all, there are wonderful and such favorite resorts: Yalta, Sudak, Evpatoria, Simferopol, Alushta and many others. And how many medium and small villages on the coast of the peninsula, which are also tourist and accept vacationers with open arms. With such a variety of resorts, how to choose the best place to relax? Here you will be helped by a detailed map of the Crimean coast with cities and villages that are on the Crimea peninsula. The map is interactive and you can enlarge it up to 30 meters! That will allow you to consider not only the roads in cities, but also the location of houses, hotels and living rooms.

The Republic of Crimea is washed by two seas: the Black and the Azov. As in the Krasnodar Territory, most tourists prefer to spend their holidays on the Black Sea coast. This is understandable: there are better resorts, more developed infrastructure in them, familiar cities and beautiful nature. Of course, it is not correct to say that the republic's resorts on the shores of the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov are absolutely bad. It has its own zest and has its own charm in the rest. Firstly, the sea is warmer here, secondly, there are fewer tourists and quieter, and thirdly, it is here that there is an amazing spit called the Arabat arrow. Those who saw her with their own eyes will remember this beauty forever. The spit stretches for 110 kilometers, and it separates the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov from the salt lake Sivash. Sometimes the width of the spit reaches 8 kilometers. And sometimes not more than 200 meters. There is no such braid anywhere else in the world, and it is worth seeing.

The favorite city for tourists among tourists is Yalta. All vacationers have tried to get here since Soviet times. Then it was believed that rest in Yalta is a royal rest. It was difficult to get to local resorts, vouchers were issued and only the best workers and bosses. With the appearance of cars in people, tourists began to come to Yalta, who set up tents and rested as savages. It was here that the favorite movie "three plus two" was filmed.

Now the city of Yalta has become a modern resort. Tourists also come here and there are a lot of them. And in order to find accommodation for the duration of your vacation, it is better to book it in advance. Yalta has quays and a large port. Large tourist ships with tourists dock here every day. The embankment of the city, which bears the name of the great leader Lenin, is beautiful and long. This is one of the most popular places for walking in the evenings.

The second most popular resort is the hero city of Sevastopol. There is also a large port for tourist ships, the Russian fleet is also based here and you can see huge warships that enter the Sevastopol Bay.

A beautiful place in Sevastopol - South Bay. She goes straight to the city and divides it. You can swim along the shores of the Southern Bay and there are many berths for water transport. A monument to the sunken ships is erected at the entrance to the Yuzhnaya Bay.

If we talk about small towns and villages, the most popular on the peninsula are Novofyodorovka, Andreevka and Novy Svet. These are all small resorts, where there are not many streets and not many places to stay for the night. Therefore, there are few tourists and places in guest houses are almost always occupied. But if you have a car, then you can come to rest on it, find a beautiful place in the mountains or by the sea and put up a tent. This type of recreation is called auto camping and now it is very popular.

The villages and cities of Crimea can be enumerated and described for a long time. But it is better to use the map and look at it where and what is.

Collected in one post the sights of the Crimea, which are worth visiting if you come to the peninsula. Here you will also find a photo, a detailed description, and a map of Crimea with sights.

It is difficult to imagine a vacation on the peninsula without visiting its many interesting places. Many of them are located quite compactly, especially on the southern coast, so you can see several at once in one day.

The most convenient way to travel is by personal or rented car, however, public transport is well developed, almost everywhere you can get there without any problems, I have indicated information on how to get there.

Mount Ai-Petri and cable car

Cable car cabin

Suspension bridge between the Ai-Petri teeth

Mount Ai-Petri is the most popular of the Crimean mountains, or rather the name of the peak itself (there are three of them) and the plateau that adjoins it. You can get to the top from Yalta or seaside villages in two ways: by cable car or by serpentines along the usual road. From the top there is just a crazy view, and in addition, you can walk along the hinged bridge between the battlements, or ride a bungee or horses.

It was built as the summer residence of the Earl and Governor-General Vorontsov, and during the Yalta Conference in 1945 was the seat of the British delegation headed by Winston Churchill.

Yusupov Palace

The current state house, so the passage is possible only as part of an excursion under the watchful eye of security guards. From the Yusupovs themselves, little has survived, but the place is atmospheric, it remembers many famous people. Stalin lived here during the Yalta conference, his cabinet was almost unchanged, and Molotov, and Prince Yusupov, known for the murder of Rasputin. They conduct a rather interesting excursion for an hour and a half, after which you can take a walk in the park nearby.

How to get there: minibuses # 102 and 132 to the bus station Miskhora or minibus # 115 to the stop. "Upper Miskhor".

Swallow's Nest

Without exaggeration - the symbol of Crimea, known far beyond the peninsula. A fairytale castle at the very edge of a cliff, to which a staircase leads. There are several observation decks and countless restaurants and souvenir shops along the route. A lovely place, but a little too crowded and noisy.

Opening hours: from 10:00 to 19:00 seven days a week

Entrance cost: admission to the castle is free, entrance fee is 200 rubles, but there is nothing to see.

How to get there: minibuses No. 102 and 132 from Yalta, you can also sail by boat with or without disembarkation.

Livadia Palace

The luxurious residence of the Russian emperors, it was here that the Yalta conference was held and it was here that the post-war world order was decided. Here and now summits and conferences are held, and the rest of the time it is a museum. You can walk in the park and along the so-called Tsarskoy trail, but they are in a rather neglected state.

Entrance cost: 400 rubles for adults, 250 rubles for schoolchildren, pensioners and students - visiting the main exhibition.

How to get there: from Yalta by minibuses 11, 100, 108 to the stop. "Livadia", then 5 minutes on foot.

Uchan-Su is the highest waterfall in Crimea (95 meters fall height), located 6 km west of Yalta near the Bakhchisarai highway. It is best to come here in spring, when the snow melts in the mountains, or during the period of heavy rains, while in summer it can almost completely dry out.

How to get there: by bus 30 from the bus station in Yalta, or you can get by any transport to the sanatorium "Uzbekistan" and then walk about 4 km, by car - you need to turn off the highway near the sanatorium "Uzbekistan" and then up 4 km.

Massandra Palace

Initially, the estate was built by the Vorontsovs, and then it was bought for Emperor Alexander 3. The palace looks absolutely fabulous and like a toy, it is really small in size.

In the pre-war period, a sanatorium was located here, and after that Stalin, Khrushchev, Brezhnev rested as at a state dacha.

What else to see in Crimea?

Nikitsky Botanical Garden

This is not just a garden with a huge collection of plants from all over the world, but a research center. It's nice to walk here even all day, it will certainly be interesting with children. Each plant has its own flowering season, so be sure to see something interesting. The garden was badly damaged during the Second World War, and the infrastructure still leaves much to be desired. Another drawback is the inadequate price tag for additional expositions.

Opening hours: from 08:00 to 19:00

Entrance cost: 300 rubles for an adult, 150 rubles for a school student (there is a separate fee for certain exhibitions)

How to get there: from Yalta minibuses 29 and 29A to the final, or by any transport to the stop. "Nikita" and then walk down to the entrance to the garden.

Mount Ayu-Dag

Mount Ayu-Dag or Bear Mountain is one of the most noticeable landmarks on the southern coast of Crimea. The mountain is a failed volcano and part of a large ridge that flanks the southern shore, an open-air museum of minerals. Located between Gurzuf (more precisely the children's camp "Artek" and Partenit). There are several routes on the mountain, they are marked, so it's difficult to get lost. The top offers a gorgeous view of the surroundings. Bring plenty of water and mosquito repellent with you.

Entrance cost: in the summer there are foresters, they take 100 rubles.

How to get there: from Yalta - by trolleybuses 52, 53, 55, minibus 110 to the stop. "Cemetery", then on foot until the turn to Artek and along the road perpendicular to the main road; from the direction of Alushta, Partenit - by trolleybuses 52, 53, 55, minibus 110 to the stop. "Lavrovoe", then the same way.

Mount Demerdzhi and the Valley of Ghosts

When visiting the sights of the Crimea, do not bypass the bizarre rocks under the Demerdzhi Mountain, near Alushta. Climbing the mountain is of medium difficulty, sometimes there are steep sections. I advise the nearby still ancient fortress Funa. It was in these places that some episodes of the "Caucasian Captive" were filmed, for example, there is a tree from which the hero of Yuri Nikulin fell (he really fell from it).

Entrance cost: 50-100 rubles, you can easily bypass the security booths.

How to get there: from Alushta take a bus to the village. Radiant (runs from the bus station about once an hour), then on foot. Or by any bus or trolleybus to the stop. "Radiant" along the highway and further on foot.

Crimea is a major tourist center of the Black Sea. The territory of the peninsula is divided between two administrative entities: the republic of the same name and the Sevastopol city council.

Relatively recently, a map of Russia with Crimea appeared - this peninsula became part of our country in March 2014.

Detailed map of Crimea with cities and towns

Detailed map of Crimea with all roads and routes

The capital of the republic is Simferopol... It has a rich ethnic composition: Russians, Tatars, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Azerbaijanis, Armenians, Uzbeks and other nationalities live in it.

An ethnographic map of Crimea with settlements makes it possible to establish how nationalities are distributed across regions and settlements, and an economic map - what types of economic activities representatives of different ethnic groups are mainly engaged in.

There are many resorts of various types on the peninsula, located both on the coast and at some distance from it. As a rule, they are linked to settlements, and a map of Crimea with cities is perfect for getting to places of rest.

Cities resorts of Crimea on the map (Tourist map of Crimea)

Yalta

Yalta is a large resort town on the South Bank. The city is the center of a large agglomeration - Big Yalta, which, as the detailed map of Crimea suggests, includes villages Alupka, Livadia, Oreanda, Massandra.

Yalta has the best climatic conditions for treating patients with diseases of the nervous and respiratory system. The local ecosystem is unique, because it was formed under the influence of both the mountainous and coastal climate - any map of Crimea with cities in Russian will help to make sure of the unique geographical location of the settlement.

There are many historical and architectural sights within the city limits. Among the latter, the special attention of tourists is " swallow's Nest"- a structure on a steep cliff above the sea, outwardly reminiscent of a medieval castle. Also, a map of the Russian Crimea will be useful when searching for other memorable places, including the Livadia, Vorontsov and Massandra palace complexes.

There is a waterfall outside the city Uchan-Su, the mountains Ayu-Dag and Ai-Petri, lake Karagol, Cape Nature Reserve Martyan... The developed transport infrastructure allows you to get to any of these attractions; a good map of Crimea will definitely contain a detailed description of access routes.

Sevastopol

Sevastopol is a large seaport, the base of the Black Sea Fleet. The studied map of the Crimea with the villages will make it possible to better orientate in the vicinity of the city - it is surrounded by a mountain range, which may seem interesting to connoisseurs of outdoor activities.

There are many agencies in Sevastopol that are ready to organize diving and windsurfing, horseback riding, travel along the coast on motor boats and sailing yachts. In the latter case, when traveling to Crimea, you will definitely need a coastal map.

Simferopol

Simferopol is located far from the coast, however, when traveling to the South Bank, it is almost impossible to bypass this city. The administrative map of the Russian Crimea designates it as the center of the republic. Given the rich history of Simferopol, there are many monuments of the past in and around the city - the Scythian Naples, house Vorontsov, estate Sabers... To get acquainted with all the sights, you will need a detailed map of Crimea with villages, indicating all interesting places.

There are many museums and galleries, several theaters and a philharmonic society in Simferopol. As the map of Crimea in Russian suggests, near the city there is the Su-Uchkhan waterfall and the adjoining Kizil-Koba cave, which is an ancient karst system with a length of at least 21 kilometers. Any map of Crimea in Russian will help pave the route to this curious geographical feature.

Alushta

Moving along the mountain route from Simferopol to the south, you can get to Alushta - the second most popular resort on the Crimean Black Sea coast after Yalta. As the map of Crimea with cities indicates, the length of the health and tourist complex of Alushta is about 90 kilometers - this is Big Alushta, located between Partenit and the village of Privetnoye.

Sometimes a detailed map of Crimea with villages, depending on the publisher, may depict this zone as continuous urban development. Alushta is located in a valley surrounded by the mountain peaks Demerdzhi, Eklizi-Burun and Roman-Kosh.

If travelers have at their disposal a map of Crimea with houses, they can explore the historical sights of Alushta, including the house-museums of the writers Ivan Shmelev and Sergey Sergeev-Tsensky. Outside the city, there is also the Museum of Nature of the Crimean Reserve together with an arboretum. There are many attractions and entertainment complexes within walking distance from the coast. A detailed map of Crimea will help you navigate the beach areas, indicating the main places of rest.

Evpatoria

The city of Evpatoria is located in the western part of the peninsula, among many salt lakes. These are ideal conditions for the operation of balneological hospitals. In addition to Yevpatoria waters, local muds have a healing effect. It is not for nothing that the map of Crimea with resorts marks Evpatoria as a major health center on the Black Sea coast.

The number of sunny days in the city is greater than in Yalta. The swimming season in Yevpatoria starts early, as the shallow Kalamitsky Gulf warms up quickly. Although information about its temperature contains a hydrological map of Crimea, it is better to navigate according to forecasts of weather forecasters.

In summer, the Evpatoria coast is characterized by breezes that provide cool air in warm water.

To travel in the vicinity of the city, you will need a map of Crimea with villages, since the resorts of Zaozernoye, Novofedorovka and Nikolaevka are located near Evpatoria. Also, the city is located in close proximity to the Evpatoria group of lakes, including the Sivash and Moinaki reservoirs. There is a water park on the Evpatoria beach.

Alupka

The city of Alupka is located in the place where the Main mountain range of the Crimean Mountains comes closest to the sea coast. To get here along the winding serpentines, you need a detailed map of Crimea with cities 2015. The streets in the city are intricate, many neighborhoods are characterized by the features of mountain settlements. The length of Alupka along the coast is 4.5 kilometers; Ai-Petri peak rises above the city.

Alupka is part of the Big Yalta agglomeration. A map of Crimea with cities in Russian will help you navigate among the local villages, and it is desirable that it describes the southern coast of the peninsula in detail. In addition to resorts, Alupka attracts tourists with the Vorontsov Palace - an architectural monument of the times of the Russian Empire.

Livadia

The settlement of Livadiya is another part of Big Yalta. The village was once used as a summer imperial residence, and in memory of those times, the Livadia Palace has been preserved, which is now open to tourists. When looking for him, a map of Crimea with cities is useless, it is better to use a detailed map of the southern coast of the peninsula.

Also, travelers are interested in the Livadia Park, known for a variety of plants and shrubs, as well as for its unusual landscape. This park is the oldest on the coast. To get acquainted with the surroundings of Livadia in more detail, vacationers can use the service of one of the many agencies that organize excursions - however, if there is a detailed map of Crimea with villages, you can go for a walk on your own.

Oreanda

The village of Oreanda, along with Alupka and Livadia, is a district of Big Yalta. Its distinctive feature is natural landscapes. Fans of active recreation can visit the Krestovaya Gora located near the village and walk along the Tsar's path - in the latter case, when traveling to Crimea, a coastal map is required.

Oreanda is famous for its Golden Beach, which is considered the best in Big Yalta. This beach is a natural stretch of coastline covered with polished pebbles, but not every map of Crimea with villages contains information about its location. The local sea air is suitable for treating people with respiratory diseases.

Massandra

Any map of Crimea depicts Massandra as an eastern suburb of Yalta. Famous wines are produced here: many of the mountain slopes near Massandra are reserved for vineyards. The village has a wine-making plant of the same name, which owns a rich collection of wines.

In addition to winemaking, Massandra is famous for the palace of Alexander III, as well as Massandra Park. The map of Crimea with cities of 2015 does not miss these sights, in contrast to earlier versions, where relatively little attention was paid to the coast in the Massandra region.

Bakhchisarai

Bakhchisarai, like Simferopol, is a "continental" resort. Despite the absence of beaches, about half a million tourists visit the city every year. They are mainly attracted by the medieval atmosphere of the city. In addition, as the map of the Russian Crimea tells us, Bakhchisarai has an advantageous geographical position, and is located in the place of an important traffic junction between Sevastopol and Simferopol. A high-quality map of Crimea online makes it possible to study well the route connecting these centers.

The main attraction of Bakhchisarai is the Khan's palace. In the vicinity of the city you can see "cave cities", as well as magnificent natural attractions: the settlement is located between the Inner and Outer ridges of the Crimean Mountains, and the 2015 map of Crimea will definitely come in handy when traveling through this difficult area.

Kerch

Kerch is the easternmost city of the peninsula, its “sea gate” for those who travel by ferry. The city is interesting because it is the port of the Black and Azov Seas at once, and also in the immediate vicinity of it there is the Sivash water area. A map of Crimea with resorts will help you to decide on the choice of a suitable beach: both seas, as well as the lake, have different hydrological regimes, so the conditions for recreation on their coast are different.

As the topographic map of Crimea can be seen in detail, the steppe landscape prevails in the vicinity of the city. Those who wish, in addition to the beaches, can visit the Melek-Chesmensky mound - an ancient well-preserved burial place, today transformed into a museum.

Old Crimea

This city is located in the east of the peninsula in the place where the steppe, mountains and sea meet. To get here, a map of Crimea in Russian will help: the town is far from the main tourist routes. Nevertheless, the settlement has a developed resort infrastructure, and is suitable for those who wish to spend a vacation in seclusion, away from noisy crowded places of travelers.

There are several galleries and museums in the Old Crimea, including the house-museum of Konstantin Paustovsky, as well as the ethnographic museum of the Crimean Tatars. It is easy to navigate in the city and its environs if you have a map of Crimea in 2015 at your disposal.

View the nature of Crimea on the map

A detailed map of Crimea in Russian allows you to see that according to the type of landscapes the peninsula is divided into two zones: the first, steppe, occupies two-thirds of its territory, and the second, mountain - remaining space.

The steppe stretches from the northern outskirts of the peninsula to its central part, smoothly turns into hills, and then is replaced by mountainous terrain. The topographic map of Crimea with cities suggests that there are areas in the mountains that are not inhabited by humans.

The nature of the vegetation cover directly depends on the features of the relief. So, in the steppes, herbs grow, there are no forests. And vice versa: in mountainous areas, trees predominate, especially with a developed root system, which are firmly attached to the rocks. With this in mind, the satellite map of Crimea is divided into two parts: in the north and in the center it is light green, sometimes with a reddish or brown tint, and in the south it is dark. On the southern coast, relict vegetation is widespread.

Crimea climate and weather

The peninsula is located in three climatic macro-regions, and twenty micro-regions are also distinguished on its territory. Macroregions due to the relief: the detailed climatic map of Crimea generally corresponds to the topographic one. First macroregion – steppe - located in the northern and eastern part of the peninsula, second – foothill and mountain - in the center and closer to the south, and the third – South coast - near the very edge of the Black Sea.

A map of the Crimea with the designations of the winds will help to assess the variety of weather conditions: "home" winds near the coast are rare, they blow much more often in the steppe. All over the peninsula, air flows from the east and northeast prevail, the only exception is Feodosia, which is open to the westerly winds.
