Foros


Last year I finally made a trip to the most southern point of Ukraine - Foros.

In soviet times Foros was closed for ordinary people. Here were only political elite's summer cotteges, sanatoriums, gardens and farm which provided food for the same elite.

Now anyone can arrive and have rest here paying the highest price in Crimea. I was here in November realizing my another dream to see the autumn sea.

I drunk hot tea with ginger to warm up, walked through juniper and cedar parks. I saw Foros in autumn as a very clean and quiet soviet town surrounded by general southern Crimea delicious nature - mountains, forests and sea. See Foros gallery on Photos-from-Ukraine.

I had not much communication with local people but mostly with Foros cats so I had totally good time there :). Noticing the amount of cats in this town I can assume they had eaten all dogs and the half of birds. Watch your back if you are dog :)
