The Crimean resort of Evpatoria in the west of the peninsula receives annually up to 900 thousand tourists on vacation, who are attracted not only by beaches and healing factors - unique healing mud and mineral waters - but also attractions and excursion routes.
The most beautiful embankments of Yevpatoriya, archaeological sites and architectural structures of different eras help to spend a vacation on the Black Sea coast of Crimea in an informative and varied way.
Along the edge of the sea
There are two embankments in Evpatoria:
- One of the most beautiful embankments not only of the city, but of the entire Crimean peninsula bears the name of Gorky. It starts from Frunze Street and stretches from west to east to Duvanovskaya Street.
- The embankment of Valentina Tereshkova starts from the city garden named after Karaev and continues to the Beach Lane.
Despite the proximity to Plyazhny lane, there are no equipped swimming places on the Tereshkova embankment, but the Gorky embankment invites everyone to enjoy swimming in the sea.
From the ancient hero Hercules
The beginning of the Gorky embankment is decorated with a statue of the ancient hero Hercules, reclining on the steps running down to the water. All the guests of Evpatoria are in a hurry to take a photo with him. There is a beach not far from Hercules "/>
A local Ferris wheel awaits fans of beautiful photographs not far from "Robinson", which offers magnificent views of the Black Sea and the coastal part of the city. The city aquarium is also located on the Yevpatoriya embankment. Lovers of watching the underwater world call it two floors of pleasure.
Billiards fans can play balls in the Pyramida club, and shopaholics can look after a beach outfit or choose gifts for family and friends in souvenir tents on the embankment.
Monuments of glorious eras
A walk along the Tereshkova embankment will be especially interesting for travelers interested in architectural and historical sights. In this part of Evpatoria, several objects are concentrated, which have a lot to tell local guides.
The Juma-Jami Mosque was built in the 16th century and is part of the federal cultural heritage list. St. Nicholas Cathedral was erected at the end of the 19th on the site of an old church, and the Greek Church of St. Elijah has been decorating the Yevpatoria embankment since 1911 and keeps traces of shelling by a Turkish cruiser on its walls.
