Amazing cave town Chufut-Kale in Crimea
Lots of photos, opinions, videos can not convey even a hundredth part of the incredible atmosphere of a "living" cave town Chufut-Kale in the Crimea. Everyone who was there, finds something different in this wonderful cave city, which came from the depth of centuries and has something mystical and unforgettable.
Chufut-Kale is, of course, the most beautiful fortress city of all cave towns of Crimea. Located on the territory of Bakhchisaray district, just two km from Bakhchisarai. Has many names including: Jewish, Double or steam room castle, Jewish town, 40 castles, etc.
To get to the foot of the cave city Chufut-Kale you will be able by themselves or with a guided tour, which is included in the program of many tourist firms Bakhchisarai, Yalta and Sevastopol.
Way up to complex, so suggest to wear comfortable shoes and clothing. And yet, I do not advise to go alone on trails far from the main street, because everywhere destroyed caves, holes and pits, plus be careful near the cliffs — there were cases when people fell.
Climb to the top of the mountains. After a few hundred meters, You will see the Holy Dormition monastery, which was built here in the days of the Byzantine Empire. Now there are monks, but their life kept secret, so I failed to learn about them, even the number of people living there is unknown.
