Well, one last place that we can’t help but mention.

Tasting complex of the Massandra trading house

This is one of the largest factories engaged in growing vineyards and creating high-quality vintage wine. It was founded by Prince Lev Golitsyn. The first plant was founded back in 1894. It was the first underground tunnel-type plant of its kind.

Today I want to talk about how I first came to Yalta. Ten years have passed, but time has no meaning in this story. My mother and I arrived in Crimea, bought tickets for a sightseeing tour. When the tour group was in Yalta, we had to pay money and join them. As soon as I unzipped the bag, I immediately realized that there's no wallet there. I was robbed, and my mother and I were left without money. Imagine, you can’t even buy some water!

Five years later I met a guy from Yalta. We started a relationship. Now I know the most interesting places of this warm city, because every summer we let's go to his homeland.

Yalta city

Most tourists who walk the streets of a resort town for the first time believe that wide embankment and residential areas in the distance - this is all of Yalta. In fact, it is a large city, which differs significantly from other resort towns.


Yalta is divided into three main districts: Old city, where the history of the settlement of the first inhabitants began, the new city and Chekhovo. The city also includes the village of Nikita and. That's why, space for walking enough. But, if you are not interested in just walking around the city, I will name interesting routes.

Top places to go in Yalta

Hotels- don’t forget to check prices from booking sites! Don't overpay. This !

Rent a Car- also an aggregation of prices from all rental companies, all in one place, let's go!

I have been to Yalta many times. When I came here for the first time, I was amazed by the nature: palm trees, mountains, blue sea! It seemed to me that I was in Turkey, and not in Crimea. After swimming to my heart's content in the sea, I went to explore the local attractions. I’ll tell you about the most amazing places that I remember.


Where did I go in Yalta

Since I love literature very much, in the city guide I immediately looked for attractions associated with great writers and books. Therefore, the first places I went to were the following:

  • house-museum of A.P. Chekhov;
  • historical and literary museum;
  • Memorial Museum of Lesya Ukrainka.

I’ll tell you in more detail about these wonderful museums.

Chekhov's House

When I saw A.P. Chekhov’s house, I gasped. It coincided so much with my ideas. Reading about Chekhov's life, I saw him as neat and sedate. Therefore, no matter how many times I come to Yalta, I still go “to visit” Chekhov every time. I really like his house, imbued with some special atmosphere. Looking at his desk, I imagine Anton Pavlovich, sitting thoughtfully with a pen in his hands... “He’s probably writing the next chapter of The Cherry Orchard,” I think...


Chekhov moved to Yalta for health reasons and lived here until his death. After his death, his sister took over the house and kept the furnishings in the rooms intact.

Yalta Historical and Literary Museum

There is a mysterious atmosphere unique to museums here. And it is created by ancient things, such as:

  • photos;
  • archaeological finds;
  • household items and treasures of ancient peoples;
  • valuable jewelry and coins.

With the help of these unique exhibits you can get acquainted with the ancient history of Yalta.


Memorial Museum of L.Ukrainka

Lesya Ukrainka is a famous Ukrainian writer who loved Yalta especially touchingly. And not only because the Crimean climate eased the pain in her bones, but also because Yalta gave her inspiration and strength.


The museum has a large exhibition telling about her creative life.

Summer, heat, vacation! We urgently need to go somewhere and relax. For the third year now, my mother did not go on vacation. Living in Crimea for most of her life, she had never been to Yalta. So I decided to give her a gift. But my mother is very stubborn and did not agree. We love a quieter and more relaxing holiday. And for some reason she had a picture in her head and the opinion that in Yalta nothing to do. There seems to be nothing to see there and nowhere to go. Since I’ve been to Yalta more than once, I had to give a brief overview of the most important places that absolutely everyone who comes is required to visit to Yalta.

This year my family and I decided relax in Yalta, since I didn’t really want to go to foreign resorts, and the budget was very limited, there was a crisis, what can I say. On the very first day of our stay at the resort, we were faced with the question of What interesting things can you see in this city? Luckily, the people who stayed in the hotel next door to us were very nice and were happy to tell us about everything sights of Yalta.


What to see in Yalta

I’ll say right away that our vacation in this beautiful city lasted for a couple of days, since there were many more attractions here than we could have imagined. All this is due to the fact that many interesting places in Yalta are not only in the city itself, but also in its vicinity.



Where to go in Yalta with children

If you are planning go to Yalta with children, then don’t think that they will get bored there. This city has many places that will delight and surprise your little ones.

First of all, I highly recommend taking your children to Zoo called "Fairy Tale". What I really liked about this place was that at the entrance they sold special food for specific types of animals, respectively. we could treat our little brothers without causing harm to their health.


Secondly, despite the fact that in Yalta has a sea, I advise you to go with your child to Atlantis water park. Everything there is aimed specifically at family vacations, and there are special areas for children, which are designed in the form of various children's cartoons. Also available children's aquadrome, which is called "Seven seas".

And finally, the youngest children should like a place called "Glade of Fairy Tales". The territory of the attraction occupies several kilometers, but you can explore it with a guide sculptures of all fairy-tale characters about an hour, and then independently return with the child to the places where he liked the most.


Where to walk around Yalta

I won’t talk about the competition – it’s a separate topic. And here about the new Yalta- yes, yes. Why new? It’s just that I haven’t been there for 16 years, so I’m new. First of all, I advise you to look, perhaps, the last surviving monument to Lenin of its kind. The mayor of Yalta, in my opinion, made a very wise decision: to postpone the demolition of the monument indefinitely, so as not to traumatize the psyche of the elderly population, for whom this monument means a lot. Well, young fellow, what can you say, an informal approach to caring for pensioners.


Walk along the Yalta embankment- it’s akin to Deribasovskaya in Odessa, it’s simply a sin to miss it. Hold the knee of Anton Palych Chekhov. Again, walking along the streets, squares and open parks is also a sacred thing. Although walking around Yalta is not so pleasant - it’s all hunchbacked and hilly, you can only walk smoothly only on the embankment, otherwise it’s uphill and downhill. I can’t even imagine how local girls walk in heels.

Parks in Yalta

You can devote a day to each park - and it won’t be enough. All of them are unique and interesting, time flies in them, and you don’t want to leave this tropical garden and park paradise.

Yalta is a pearl by the sea, as this magnificent resort city was dubbed back in the days of the Soviet Union. Indigenous residents lovingly call the southern capital of Crimea Russian Nice, and numerous citizens of the USSR who once came here for treatment called Yalta the All-Union Health Resort.

The city with ancient history was first mentioned in the chronicles of Arab historians. Evidence dates back to 1154 and presents Yalta as a small Polovtsian port on the Black Sea. The origin of the name is associated with the Greek word “Yalos”, which means “shore”, and with the Crimean Tatar “yalyda”, which translates as “on the shore”.

This beautiful city is located in the south of the Crimean peninsula and, like a real pearl, is buried in the picturesque valleys of two mountain rivers. Together with the suburb, the so-called Big Yalta, the resort area extends 70 km from Foros in the west to Krasnokamenka in the east. On the one hand, this blessed place is surrounded by rocky mountain ranges, and on the other, its coast is washed by the warm waters of the Yalta Bay.
