For centuries, Crimea has attracted not only travelers, but also writers, poets, artists, and— in the 20th century—filmmakers. These amazing lands are full of not just stories and legends brought by different peoples, from the Greeks to the Genoese, but also of the most beautiful monuments of culture and art. Here are the familiar scenes from Gaidai’s comedies filmed in Yevpatoria, immortal lines by Pushkin, amazing paintings by Aivazovsky, Korovin, and Shishkin… All facets of Crimea’s history and culture are waiting for you in this book.

An edition devoted to Crimea’s culture, art, and history will introduce you to the peninsula’s astonishing sights, its rich history, and its artistic heritage created in Crimea.
