Old park in Kabardinka - photos and how to get there

I went to the Old Park in Kabardinka, like to Mini Siam in Thailand, if anyone knows, or to Mini City in Turkey, that is, to a park with copies of famous buildings. But the Old Park, although it is a thematic and architectural park, does not contain a copy. All the buildings in it are by themselves (not copies), rather the theme is simply observed, be it Japanese, Greek, or Caucasian.

The price is high, but in Kabardinka there is not so much that you can still see. And in general, there is nothing similar either in the nearest cities or on the entire coast..

old park

The Old Park is one of the main attractions of Kabardinka. This is a thematic architectural park with an area of ​​half a hectare, where the architecture created by the author reflects different cultural eras and styles from Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece to the heritage of the peoples of the Caucasus. This is a mini-encyclopedia of architecture, a very compact journey through time and space. The creator of the park, Alexander Alekseev, graduated from Rostov University in 1983, studied the history of culture and art for many years. Its park embodies not only historical elements of architecture and decor, but also the author's philosophical ideas..

The territory of the park is very small and therefore, during the peak season, it may not be crowded there. I was at the beginning of October and it was difficult to take photographs, I had to wait until they moved away from the place I needed. Each building has its own theme. They stand quite close to each other, they are separated by paths and a lawn. Everything is very well maintained. As far as I understand, there is only one architect - Alexander Alekseev. A writer who changed his profession as an architect and sculptor. The old park was created by him from scratch, earlier there was just a wasteland. That is, all buildings, although they reflect some era, are a remake, you should not expect antiquity here. Only in the house of the East is there a collection of old weapons and armor. Alexander has his own architectural studio, and this park, one might say, is a visiting card. Not bad, thought up! Soon, another part of the park will open, another piece of land nearby has been bought. How everything looks in real life, the photo will tell for me better.

I've always wondered why you can't take pictures in church.

Separately, I drew attention to the design of one electrical panel. Amazing! From a distance, some kind of milling, or a picture looks. But if you come closer and see ... That face is a piece of an ordinary plastic tablecloth, around old earrings and stems of plants.

Amazing electrical panel design

I will not recommend visiting or not visiting this park. A similar attraction for an amateur, however, like everyone else.

Map and how to get there

There is a fairly large parking lot near the park. Most likely during the peak season it will be busy, but the rest of the time you can find a place. But in general, the Old Park is located in the center of the village of Kabardinka. You can park in another place (near the embankment, for example) and walk. Well, vacationers in Kabardinka should initially go on foot, if they don't live right off the edge..
