Vorontsov Palace and Park complex

Reviewed By aleksandrovahele2018

It's one of the most popupar palaces in Crimea. It's a combination of two styles: English Renaissance revival and eastern mosque-like facade from the southern entrance. The idea of the architect was to build the palace in a very natural style so it will look more beautiful with a combination of nature around it.

Panorama Museum on the Siege of Sevastopol

Reviewed By sergeyk147

Don't be fooled by the exterior! Rather dull from the outside it just takes your breath away when you're in. One of the largest panoramas in the world! I visited that museum together with my wife in the middle of April, in low season, so there were no tourist hordes there. Now that Russia took Crimea back full-scale reconstruction is going on everywhere. An outstanding bridge connecting the peninsula with the continent has been built, great highways pierce the region, a brand-new airport offers excellent service, etc., etc., etc. We took a car to drive to Crimea from Russia and, naturally, Sevastopol was one of our prime destinations. The panorama spellbinds, you stay there awestruck, feeling with your skin heroism, horror and pain of war. It's not a big thing if you're not a Russian speaker - they have audio guides for you. Anyhow, it's better to do some homework beforehand since the tour lasts thirty minutes only, the hall is huge, details are abundant and it'd be easy to get confused. For your info: the panorama depicts fighting on June 6th, 1854, when Allied forces undertook their first - and unsuccessful - assault on the Malakoff redoubt. There's also a nice so-called Historical boulevard nearby but Russians effect huge renovation works there so better come in summer of 2022 when they are supposed to be accomplished. Highly recommended! PS No trace of the Charge of the Light Brigade though. Simply because it happened not in Sevastopol but not far from Balaklava, some twenty kilometers to the south-east.
