About
This museum-reserve offers a deep dive into the history of the Kuban region and its Black Sea coast. It features three main exhibitions: “Regalia and Relics of the Kuban Cossack Host,” “The Ancient Past of Kuban,” and “Kuban during the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945.” The museum was founded in 1879 and has borne the name of its founder — Yevgeny Felitsyn, secretary of the Kuban Regional Statistical Committee — since 1991.

Swallow's Nest
The most recognizable symbol of Crimea. This castle-like palace towers atop the 40-meter-high Aurora Cliff. It acquired its current appearance in 1912 thanks to architect Alexander Sherwood. To reach it, you'll need to conquer 1,200 steps—first down, then up. At the end awaits not just the castle but also a breathtaking coastal panorama: from here, you'll see Yalta, Sail Rock, and Mount Ayu-Dag.

Temple of All Religions
A symbol of unity among different religious teachings.
