One of the most beautiful and comfortable embankments in Russia stretches along the mighty Don. She proudly bears the name of the famous Russian admiral and naval commander Fyodor Ushakov.
The Rostov-on-Don embankment is considered by the Rostovites to be one of the main attractions of the city and they prefer to relax here and make dates, spend weekends and even business meetings in an informal setting.
Cossack region
Rostov-on-Don is a pleasant city in all respects. A special atmosphere of hospitality and respect for tourists reigns on its streets, and on the local embankment everything is arranged so that everyone feels at home here.
The best way to see the embankment of Rostov-on-Don from the side is to take a ride on a pleasure motor ship or boat, departing from the docks of the river station from early morning until late at night.
All festivities and festive processions take place on the Rostov embankment, important events and memorable dates are celebrated here. City Day in Rostov is traditionally celebrated on the third Sunday in September. The program of events will certainly include fireworks, which gather thousands of Rostovites on the embankment.
The Volga bank is also a great place for those who begin their acquaintance with any city by visiting local restaurants. Rostov chefs will offer a menu for every taste to their guests, because on the embankment there are cafes with Ossetian and Kabardian, Russian and Tatar cuisine.
As a gift to your beloved city
In 2013, the mayor of the city signed a decree according to which it was planned to install several interesting sculptural compositions on the embankment of Rostov-on-Don, and the sponsors of the work were to be local patrons of the arts. Work on the implementation of the project continues, but for now the embankment has already been decorated with sculptures:

- "Castle Tree" is the most favorite place on the river bank for newlyweds. As a symbol of eternal love, they attach locks on its openwork branches.
- "Rak" reminds that in the Don waters there have always been selected crayfish, which can still be ordered with beer in most Rostov restaurants.
- "Rybak" was installed right next to the fence. He casts a line in the hope of catching tasty Don fish.
The most monumental sculpture "The Don-Father" depicts the Don Cossack.
