About
Just 12 minutes—and you're soaring above the city. The cable car, opened in 1967, starts on the embankment near the "Tavrida" Hotel and leads to Darsan Hill. The cabins accommodate two people, and boarding is done while in motion. The ride is smooth and leisurely, offering views of rooftops, the sea, and greenery. At the top, there's a viewing platform, and nearby—the "Hill of Glory" memorial complex dedicated to those who fell during the Civil and Great Patriotic Wars.

"Skazka" Zoo
"Skazka" consists of separate terraces on a mountainside, each offering new encounters: tigers and goats, lions and ornamental chickens, peacocks and miniature pigs. Over 600 animals—from familiar to exotic. The monkeys, as always, steal the show: noisy, teasing, posing.
Massandra Beach
This beach is considered one of the best in Crimea in terms of service and has repeatedly been awarded the prestigious international "Blue Flag" certification.
