If you find yourself on this beach in the evening, the nightclub located here will open its doors for you “The matrix”.
For walking, the Lenin embankment is ideal, next to which there are shops, entertainment centers and restaurants.
If you come on vacation to Yalta with children, go to the zoo “Story”, so that together with them you can observe camels, zebras, tigers and pelicans. And the smallest visitors to the zoo will be able to ride a donkey.
