How to find housing in the Bakhchisarai region

First I would have stopped at Bakhchisarai for 2-3 days to see the sights in the city () and the surrounding area (Kachi Kalion, Tepe-Kermen, Kyz-Kermen, Bakla), then for another 2-3 days you can move to village Ternovka, from where it will be convenient to get to: Mangup-Kale, Eski-Kermen, Shuldan monastery.

Housing in Ternovka and Zalesnoe

If Bakhchisarai is large enough locality, whose landlords are striving to somehow make themselves known on the Internet. The residents of the villages of Zalesnoye and Ternovka are more likely the option when it is better to look for housing on the spot. In Zalesnoye, you can still find at least 1-2 ads on the same Sutochno.ru today (2019), but in Ternovka things are really bad.

This city has always been a kind of barometer in the life of the Crimean Tatars - one has only to trace the main milestones of its history from the Middle Ages to the present day. Its name, meaning "garden-palace", was given to the city when Bakhchisarai became the capital of the influential Crimean Khanate, which existed from the 15th to the 18th century.

After wandering through the narrow cobbled streets and admiring the ancient buildings, go to the main object - the Bakhchisarai Palace, a unique example of Crimean Tatar architecture.

V different times In the ancient walls there was a hospital and a neuropsychiatric dispensary, some of the buildings have recently been restored from ruins. Another cave monastery, Kachi-Kalion, is a 20-minute drive from the city. This place bears little resemblance to the usual Orthodox monasteries - there are no high white walls and golden domes.

Today it is one of the least explored and the most mysterious monuments of the Middle Ages in Crimea.
