Despite the fact that most often I go abroad, I still really like our Krasnodar Territory, where I try to visit once a year. Of course, it is not the service that attracts, but the nature and something else inexplicable. True, usually I go to our Black Sea in spring or autumn to avoid crowds, so I see resorts and attractions a little different from what the majority of people see them..
Regardless of when you go to the Krasnodar Territory, you can see a lot of things there in terms of attractions, ranging from natural to man-made (below is some TOP10). The main thing to remember is the rule that August is the peak season and, accordingly, the most people. So, if you want less movement, then choose other months.

Tiger cave
The Tiger Cave is located in the vicinity of the village of Tkhagapsh, in the Lazarevsky district of the Krasnodar Territory. This cave is unique in that it is at the same time a source: water falls from it into the bed of the Hekuai River. The entrance to the cave is located 30 meters from this river, on a picturesque slope. The name of the cave comes from the unusual striped color of the limestone.
The length of the Tigrovaya Cave is 160 m, and many of its passages have an area of 304 sq. km. In most places, the vaults are lowered so low that you can only walk on the water on your haunches. The main part of the cave is completely filled with water. Next to the cave is the Sparkling waterfall, falling from a height of 35 m, as well as a dense relic forest with huge oaks, beeches and three-hundred-year-old chestnuts.

Museum of retro cars in Gelendzhik

The museum also contains exhibits of modern tuned cars..
Abrau-Durso Champagne Museum
Abrau-Dyurso is not only the birthplace of the well-known Russian champagne, but also a storehouse of old legends and dialects. A beautiful view of Lake Abrau and picturesque mountain slopes opens up as soon as you turn right from the Novorossiysk highway. The quality and quantity of the drinks produced by Abrau-Durso are not inferior even to the elite varieties of Italian and French wines. Abrau and Dyurso are two different villages and are separated by a seven-kilometer road of a mountain serpentine, but they are united by a valley where the best grapes of the Krasnodar Territory are grown. In the champagne museum, you can learn about ancient traditions that are still sacredly revered in the wine business: even the bottles are turned over here exclusively by female hands. Among the famous Russian brands of champagne of different aging years are presented here «Millesim», brut «Imperial», «Dravigny», «Russian champagne» and of course the famous ««ABRAU».
Aquarium-terrarium
Among the exotic sights of the Krasnodar Territory, one of the most famous is the aquarium-terrarium located in Sochi. The inhabitants of the aquarium since 1989 are more than 200 species of fish, reptiles, birds and amphibians (lizards, snakes and crocodiles). The main favorites of tourists are a reticulated python 4 m long and weighing more than 50 kg (which «teenager»), rainbow python, black piranhas, Jaco parrot, rhino iguana and black-tailed rattlesnake. It was in this place that many zoological TV shows were filmed - for example, «Life of animals» Nikolay Drozdov or «Naturalist travels» Pavel Lyubimov.
Sukko Valley
On the eve of the mountainous Caucasus (Anapa region), the Sukko valley appears as picturesque landscapes. The Sukko River, which does not dry out even in summer heat, is framed by centuries-old trees: immense oaks, elms, willows, beeches. Thanks to groves of pine and relict juniper, the air here is filled with aromatic resins, which are known to have a beneficial effect on the respiratory system. Small pebble beaches, crystal clear water, iodine-rich sea air, mountains and mineral waters give Sukko a special uniqueness. This area is also famous for the fact that it is the only place in the Kuban where marsh cypresses of half a meter in height grow, whose homeland is Mexico.
Winter sports palace «Iceberg»
Ice Palace «Iceberg» in Adler was built in 2012. It consists of an ice arena and a figure skating practice rink. Famous competitions were held here: the Russian Figure Skating Championships 2013-2015, figure skating and short track skating of the 2014 Olympic Games, etc. The arena has a capacity of 12 thousand people. The building is unusually beautiful: the facade of the indoor ice rink has a wave-like shape and is sheathed with stained-glass windows in several shades of heavenly blue. At the same time, the entire object has a prefabricated and disassembled structure: it can be easily dismantled and transported to anywhere in the world.
Volcano Tizdar
Located in the north of the Taman Peninsula, in the Temryuk district of the Krasnodar Territory. This place is located in the village of Golubitskaya (another name is Anapskaya blue Sopka). The volcano itself is more like a lake, moreover, a medicinal one: here from the bottom flows of mud periodically come out. It is not advisable to dive in a volcano, you can get stuck here, and it is also not recommended to stay in «curative» crater for more than 15 minutes. The fascinating factor is that the volcano has no bottom, and the feeling of weightlessness is given by the special density of the clay. Tourists come to this place because blue clay, as you know, is famous for its medicinal properties: it cleans the skin, strengthens hair, etc. And already twenty steps from the crater there is an opportunity to plunge into the refreshing water of the Sea of Azov.
Cruiser museum «Mikhail Kutuzov»
More recently, a cruiser «Mikhail Kutuzov» was a real warship, being part of the USSR Navy. Now it is a branch of the Black Sea Fleet Museum and a famous landmark of Novorossiysk. The ship itself is considered a masterpiece of world shipbuilding and has an impressive history of combat service. The floating museum is located near the central embankment, in the passenger port. Inside, it looks like a tangled labyrinth, so tourists are recommended to visit it with a guide.. More about the Cruiser Mikhail Kutuzov.
