Crimea on the map with borders. Detailed map of Crimea with the main resort towns. Map of Crimea with cities and villages

It is a well-known fact that the Crimean peninsula has a unique climate. Crimea, whose territory occupies 26.9 thousand km 2, is not only a famous Black Sea health resort, but also an Azov health resort. The waters of these two continental seas wash its shores. In addition, Crimea is endowed with significant potential for the development of irrigated agriculture: horticulture and viticulture.

The peninsula has a multi-level relief. In the north and in the center, steppe relief prevails, it occupies ¾ of the territory of Crimea, in the south it is limited to three ridges of gently sloping sedimentary Crimean mountains, stretching in a strip 160 km long. The southern coast delights with its resort opportunities. Accordingly, in the climatic plan the peninsula includes three recreational zones:

The most popular is subtropical;

Millions of tourists in the summer become guests of its friendly cities: Kerch, Feodosia. These are the largest cities of the peninsula, short description We will present some of them below. According to statistics, the peninsula is currently visited by 5-6 million tourists during the season. Is it a lot or a little? For comparison, 31.456 million tourists visited Turkish resorts in 2011. It's all about infrastructure and promotion. As we see, Crimea has something to strive for...

Population of Crimea

Population Crimean peninsula, according to Crimean statistics as of 01/01/2014, is more than 2.342 million people and tends to increase. The reason is the migration attractiveness of Crimea. At the same time, urban residents have a share of 62.7% on the peninsula, and rural residents, respectively, - 37.3%. In terms of nationality, according to the 2001 census, the population of Crimea is represented predominantly by Russians (58.3%), Ukrainians (24.3%), Crimean Tatars (12.1%), and Belarusians (1.5%). The remaining nationalities in the population of the peninsula occupy a much smaller share - less than 1%.

By the way, the 2001 Crimean census showed interesting fact: more Izhorians (small Finnish-Ugric people) live on its territory than in their historical homeland.

Cities of Crimea

The cities of the Crimean peninsula are few. Currently there are 18 of them. Let's imagine brief characteristics some of them.

Administrative, cultural and industrial center Crimea is the city of Simferopol with a population of 360 thousand. In Greek, its name means “city of benefit.” This is the most important transport hub. It is through it that roads lead to all settlements of the peninsula.

The industry of Simferopol is significant: about 70 large enterprises, including the factories “Foton”, “Pnevmatika”, “Santekhprom”, “Krymprodmash”, “Fiolent” and others. Accordingly, the city's population is quite qualified. The city is home to the main universities of the peninsula, which is why it is called the scientific center of Crimea. Let us also recall that Simferopol is small homeland academician Igor Vasilyevich Kurchatov, actor Roman Sergeevich Filippov, singer Yuri Iosifovich Bogatikov.

The city of Sevastopol was built by decree of Empress Catherine II as a fortress. It is of strategic importance in the Black Sea region as an ice-free port and naval base. Since 2014, according to the Russian Constitution, Sevastopol has federal significance, being the main base of the Black Sea Fleet.

In accordance with the Constitution of Ukraine, Sevastopol was given a special status. The industrial potential of the “city of Russian sailors” is determined by the local fishing port, fish canning plant and plant, Inkerman winery, shipbuilding and ship repair plants. The city of Sevastopol is also significant resort center the southern coast of the Black Sea, with about 200 sanatoriums and 49 kilometers of beaches.

One of the oldest cities in the world is Kerch, on its site in the 7th century AD. e. The Hellenes founded the city of Panticapaeum. The industry of Kerch is represented by mining, metal processing, shipbuilding, construction, and fishing enterprises. with a population exceeding 100 thousand are Evpatoria and Yalta, more than 83 thousand inhabitants in Feodosia. A map of the cities of the Crimean peninsula shows that most of them are located on the coast. The exceptions are Simferopol, Belogorsk and Dzhankoy.

It should be noted that the existing urban structure of Crimea is historically balanced. Further urbanization of the peninsula is hampered by its limited water resources.

The recent past. All-Union health resort

Crimea, the Black Sea... these words were well known to every Soviet person. How many people vacationed on the peninsula? Accurate statistics are difficult to find. The official figure is 10 million. However, it was compiled based on data from sanatorium and resort institutions.

At the same time, very significant flows of vacationers traveled to Crimea on their own and organized their vacations themselves. However, they were not included in official statistics. We are talking about the so-called “savages”. One of the authors of Literaturnaya Gazeta made a joke about them in the 60s. He said that this method of recreation had become so popular in the USSR that the press began to use the word “savage” without quotation marks.

In their suitcases there was a map of the Crimean Peninsula, and they chose the route and vacation spot themselves... How to count them? To count the number of citizens vacationing on their own, an informal “bread” technology was used. The calculation is simple: almost all citizens consume bread daily. On average, 200-250 grams per person per day. The increase in bread consumption during the holiday season made it possible to determine the number of “savages”. The result was impressive statistics: if in 1958 there were about 300 thousand, then in 1988 there were 6.2 million people.

Thus, during the holiday season (from May to September) Soviet Crimea provided its recreational resources for 16 million Soviet people. And if we take into account that the holiday season in Turkey is twice as long, we come to the conclusion: Crimea in the 80s of the last century provided recreation for a flow of people comparable to modern Turkey, however, if we take into account the “savages”.

Natural resources

Crimea is endowed with significant deposits of natural gas, oil, mineral salts, and iron ore. Preliminary calculations estimate the total volume of gas fields - more than 165 billion m3, oil - about 47 million tons, iron ore - more than 1.8 billion tons.

Despite the effective extraction of minerals, the Crimean Peninsula, according to experts, has much greater potential due to unique natural resources that are promising for creating a year-round medical rehabilitation base of international level.

Their fullest use is a strategic task for the entire economy of Crimea.

This peninsula is original and capable of surprising. On 5.8% of its territory there are objects and lands belonging to nature reserves.

Reserves fresh water Crimea is the subject of many discussions. Although the map of the Crimean peninsula shows the presence of 257 local rivers, the largest of which are Alma, Belbek, Kacha, Salgir, almost all of them have limited nutrition from the mountains and dry up in the summer. 120 Crimean rivers are no longer than 10 km; they are more like mountain streams than rivers. The longest is Salgir (204 km).

There are many lakes on the peninsula, more than 80. However, these reservoirs are of marine origin and are lifeless due to the high salinity of the water. Such lakes do not contribute to the development of agriculture, depressing the soil.

On the one hand, the significant climatic agricultural potential of the region, and on the other, insufficient water supply, determined the need for human intervention in this imbalance. The North Crimean Canal, which supplies Dnieper water to the peninsula, is of decisive importance for water supply. Its volume in 2003 amounted to 83.5% of the total water supply of Crimea.

Thus, the artificial construction of three stages of the canal compensated for the shortage of water, which neither the Crimean Peninsula’s own rivers nor its lakes could objectively provide. By the way, the share of rivers in the region’s water supply is only 9.5%.

The steppe part of Crimea produces drinking water from artesian basins. Its share is also low - 6.6% of the total. Although clean, high-quality water is extracted from wells.

Statistics show that per resident of Crimea the average daily volume of water is 4.7 times less than for a resident middle zone. In addition, the cost of water in Crimea is also traditionally higher.

Flora of Crimea

If in the center and north of the peninsula there are arable lands, then in the mountains there is a riot of pristine flora. There, to the delight of experts, 240 species of unique, endemic plants grow there. The northern slopes of the Crimean Mountains are covered with dense deciduous forest, with oak groves growing below and oak and hornbeam groves above. The southern slopes of the mountains are covered pine forests. Among the conifers is the endemic Crimean pine.

The nature of the Crimean peninsula is extremely favorable for the creation of cultivated arboretums on the southern coast, numbering hundreds and thousands of plants harmoniously planted by specialists. If wild vegetation is represented by bush thickets (shiblik), then cultivated seaside parks are the man-made pearls of this ancient land. A special place among them belongs to the oldest Nikitsky botanical garden, presenting plants to tourists from all continents. However, Massandra, Livadia, Foros, and Vorontsov parks also have masterpiece dendrological collections of hundreds of plants. And this is not a complete list of Crimean dendrological plantings.

Story. Ancient world

The history of Crimea is attractive and eventful. Its territory has long attracted conquerors. Some of the original inhabitants, the Cimmerians, who lived back in the 12th century, were displaced by the Scythians. Other indigenous inhabitants, the Tauri, who lived in the foothills and mountains, assimilated with the conquerors. Crimea became part of the Scythian state.

In the 5th century BC. e. The Hellenes used the Crimean peninsula to found their colony cities on its southern coast (Taurica, as they called it): Chersonesos, Kafa, Panticapaeum. At this stage, there was no talk of statehood of the peninsula, but rather of Greek colonization of the coast. At the same time, the Scythians ruled the steppes.

Let us remember that Crimea is also called the cradle of Russian Orthodoxy. It was here, on the land of Chersonesos, in the 1st century AD. e. Apostle Andrew the First-Called landed, preaching to the Tauri and Scythians.

63 AD e. was marked by the annexation of Crimea by the Roman Empire, which took control of the cities built by the Greeks. After the fall of this mighty power, the peninsula was subjected to several attacks. In the 3rd century AD e. Crimea was conquered by immigrants from Scandinavia - the Goths, and in the 4th century AD. e. they were replaced by later aggressors - the Huns, nomads from Asia.

Since the 6th century, the Crimean steppes were dominated by Turkic-speaking tribes, who formed the Khazar Khaganate. We will recall this fact again in this article.

The Crimean colony cities on the coast came under the jurisdiction of the heir of Rome - Byzantium. The Byzantines strengthened Chersonesus, new fortresses grew: Alushta, Gurzuf, Eski-Kermen, Inkerman and others. With the weakening of Byzantium on the coast, the Genoese formed the Principality of Theodoro.

Middle Ages

Christianity developed on the peninsula during the Middle Ages. Saint Prince Vladimir was baptized in Chersonesus, who later spread the Christian faith throughout Rus'.

Since the 8th century AD e. In the steppe part of the peninsula, Slavic colonization took place, which was limited in time, since the attention of Kievan Rus was given priority to the western borders, and the nomads pursued an active and aggressive policy of raids.

In the 12th century, the Crimean peninsula became Polovtsian. This era is illustrated by individual Polovtsian names that have remained to this day: Ayu-Dag (“Bear Mountain”), Artek (the name of the son of the Polovtsian khan).

After the conquest of the entire peninsula, including the Tatar-Mongols in the 13th century, the city of Solkhat (located on the territory of the modern small town of Old Crimea) became its center. The peninsula is part of the huge Tatar-Mongol state of the Golden Horde.

New story

During the period when peoples finally became sedentary and nations began to be created, the indigenous nation of the peninsula emerged - the Crimean Tatars. In 1475, the peninsula was conquered by the Ottoman Empire, and Kafa became the capital of Crimea. The Turkish state of Porta became an ally of the Crimean Tatars, who were vassals dependent on it. Ottoman Empire built its military bridgeheads on the peninsula. On Perekop, the conquerors built the strategic fortress Or-Kalu.

The history of the Crimean Peninsula in modern times (it dates back to the Renaissance) is connected with the wars of Russia against the Crimean Khanate. In particular, in 1736 by the army of Christopher Antonovich Minich, and in 1737 by the army of Pyotr Petrovich Lassia, it was significantly weakened. Khan Kyrim Geray, politically trying to create an alliance with Western states, died suddenly in 1769.

During the Russian-Turkish War on June 14, 1770 and July 29, 1770, the Second Army under the command of Chief General Vasily Mikhailovich Dolgorukov won two strategic victories over the Crimean Tatars: on the Perekop Line and at Cafe. The statehood of the indigenous people of this region was lost. The map of the Crimean peninsula from 1783 instead of the Crimean Khanate displayed the Tauride province, belonging to Russia.

Crimean California

In the 20th century, already in Soviet time, this region has become the object of controversial geopolitics. On October 18, 1921, the Crimean Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was formed here, a component of the RSFSR.

Meanwhile, the Soviet government faced the problem of regional development. If the Black Sea turned out to be quite densely populated, the same could not be said about its steppe part. There was clearly a lack of human resources in the Crimean steppe. The idea arose of creating agricultural Jewish settlements to transform the semi-desert steppe into cultivated lands. The history of the Crimean peninsula, as we see, had an alternative development perspective.

In 1922, the Jewish international organization “Joint” approached the Soviet government with a lucrative offer. She undertook to invest in agriculture on 375 thousand hectares of the Crimean Peninsula, and for this the RSFSR, accordingly, was offered to implement old dream Jews seeking the Promised Land - to found the Jewish Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic here.

This proposal had historical roots. In the 8th-10th centuries, it existed on the territory of the peninsula and professed Judaism.

The Central Executive Committee of the USSR under the Council of Nationalities created a separate committee for land employment of Jews. The committee developed a 10-year plan for housing up to 300 thousand Jewish migrants in the steppe part of Crimea.

On February 19, 1929, an agreement was signed between the Central Executive Committee of the RSFSR and the Joint on the development of Crimean lands. In the world this project is better known as “Crimean California”. To implement it, an international Jewish organization issued securities worth $20 million, purchased by American and European private capital. A total of $26 million (at current exchange rates - approximately $1.82 billion) of investments passed through the Agro-Joint bank branch opened in Simferopol.

In 1938, Stalin curtailed the project, but the issue was raised during World War II. Joint shareholders wanted compensation. At the Tehran Conference they were expressed to Stalin by American President Roosevelt. However, during the Cold War, the dispute was resolved by General Secretary Khrushchev using the “Gordian knot” method. On February 19, 1954, the Crimean region was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR from the RSFSR. The agreement between the USSR and the Joint lost its force: the subject of the dispute did not belong to the RSFSR.

Crimea as part of Ukraine

The territory of Crimea, having become part of the Ukrainian SSR, required significant resources for its development. About 300 thousand people were deported from this region the day before; there was clearly a shortage of workers. A significant part of the male population died in the fighting of the Great Patriotic War. Agriculture on the peninsula could not overcome the crisis on its own and reach pre-war levels. There weren't enough roads.

In 1958, the Ukrainian SSR allocated funds from its budget to build the world's longest trolleybus route, connecting Simferopol with Alushta and Yalta. In 1961-1971, a strategically important artificial canal was also built, irrigating the steppe lands of Crimea using the water of the Kakhovka reservoir of the Dnieper. Since then, viticulture and gardening began to develop in a planned and progressive manner.

However, after 1991, a dangerous downward trend emerged in the development of agriculture on the peninsula. The reason is the high cost of acquiring modern agricultural technologies for peasants and the insufficient state support for agriculture in this problematic region. As a result, the area under cultivation was reduced by more than half and, accordingly, the water supply by the North Crimean Canal decreased.

Crimea today

The current political crisis in relations between Russia and Ukraine is largely reflected in the economy of the peninsula. Guided by the results of the referendum of the population of Crimea (2014), the RSFSR annexed it as a subject of the federation. Ukraine, for its part, did not recognize the legitimacy of this referendum and considers Crimea annexed.

The imbalance of economic relations generated by Russian-Ukrainian “trade wars” depresses the economy of the region. In fact, the holiday season is a failure. Agriculture is suffering due to inconsistencies in its water supply. However, the population of the peninsula is waiting for these temporary difficulties to be overcome. The Russian Federation, for its part, is establishing its state infrastructure in Crimea. After all, it is not enough to be nominally new republic The map of Russia has been replenished. The Crimean peninsula is currently going through a difficult path of economic and legal integration into Russian society.

Ukraine and the G7 countries, as already mentioned, did not recognize the legitimacy of the referendum. Hence the difficulties in obtaining the proper international status for the peninsula. There are also questions related to the position of the Crimean Tatars, that is, the indigenous population.

However, the story continues, and the population of Crimea, of course, expects federal investment in the economy of their region. In many ways, his choice of statehood was determined by expectations for the development of the region. What will the future be like for the unique peninsula? The question is still open.

Conclusion

What are the prospects for this amazing region? Let's remember the lessons of history. At a time when one of the last general secretaries of the USSR, Yuri Vladimirovich Andropov, tried to “strengthen labor discipline” by intensifying control over absenteeism and preventing theft, more constructive processes were taking place in the country on the other side of the Black Sea... The Crimean peninsula at that time had more powerful sanatorium base than Turkey.

In the 80s in Turkey, the international investment process in the resort industry was clearly economically planned, legally defined and launched by the entire state machine. A country whose GDP fell by 10% during the global crisis was building a new promising budget item - the resort business. International agreements were reached on the regime of capital investments for private investors with equal rights to residents.

At the same time, foreign investors were not only exempted (partially or fully) from taxes and duties when making capital investments in sanatoriums, but also received the right to unlimited equity participation in them. They were also guaranteed a refund and repatriation of capital if the investment “failed.”

It is obvious that the Crimean Peninsula should be developed economically in a similar way. Photos of his resorts after such investments will be able to compete with photographs taken in sanatoriums and water parks in Antalya, Turkey.

The state of Ukraine is located in Eastern Europe. total area The country's area is 603,549 km², which allowed it to take 44th place in the world ranking by territory. In addition, Ukraine is recognized largest state in Europe, not counting the European part of Russia. In terms of territory, it is quite slightly inferior to France.

The length of the state border of Ukraine is 5637.982 km. And this is only the land part of it. The country's maritime borders stretch for another 1,355 km.

Ukraine's neighbors: in the southwest - Romania and Moldova, in the west - Hungary, Slovakia and Poland - in the west, in the north Ukraine borders on Belarus, and in the east and northeast there is a border with Russia.

The length of Ukraine from west to east is 1316 km, and this is one and a half times greater than its length from north to south, which is 893 km.

In Ukraine, two places also claim to be the geographical center of Europe: a point near the village of Delovoye in Transcarpathia and a point near the village of Vyshinky Ternopil region.
The capital of Ukraine is the city of Kyiv.

The Ukrainian side still does not recognize the reunification of the Republic of Crimea with the Russian Federation.

Today, the peninsula continues to be considered by the country’s authorities as “temporarily occupied territory.” Therefore, problems when crossing the border of Ukraine with Russia may arise not only for a Crimean citizen, but also for a foreign tourist. Particular problems often arise in young and middle-aged men. According to some reports, Ukrainian border service officers often spoil Russian passports.

Also, for “illegal” crossing of the Crimean border with Ukraine, a large fine may be required. The amount of the fine is not specified anywhere, so you should prepare for the most unexpected amounts. But the most unpleasant consequence is deportation. According to some reports, by the fall of 2016, several thousand people who had entered its territory from the peninsula had already been deported from Ukraine.

A fairly reasonable solution is to enter the territory of the Ukrainian state from a nearby Russian city. Getting to Crimea from Ukraine is already much easier.

It is important to remember that two years ago, railway and road communications between Crimea and Ukraine were stopped. Now you can only cross the border on foot. The minimum distance that you have to walk when crossing the state border is 800 meters.

What is important for Ukrainians to remember?

Contrary to media reports, residents of Ukraine can travel to Crimea without hindrance. Entry into the territory of the peninsula and exit to Ukraine is carried out using a document identifying the traveler and confirming Ukrainian citizenship. To cross the border, a citizen of Ukraine can present:

• passport;
• active foreigner;
• diplomatic passport;
• official travel document;
• seaman's passport;

Ukrainians under fourteen years of age have the right to cross the border only with special permission from their father, mother or legal representative. According to the new rules for entry into Crimea, the young traveler must have not only a children’s travel document, but also a foreign passport. Also, the minor is obliged to present a birth certificate.

Ukrainians can enter the territory of the peninsula in any way convenient for them. It is important to remember that the period of residence in Russia should not exceed 90 days. At the border it becomes necessary to fill out a migration card.

Crossing rules for foreigners

Nationals of other states wishing to enter and exit the territory of the peninsula must have with them:

• passport,
• visa,
• temporary or permanent Ukrainian residence permit.

Documents issued on the territory of the peninsula are not recognized as valid by the Ukrainian authorities. A person holding such a document may be refused to cross the border. This also applies to those documents that confirm the right to drive a car and ownership.

In addition, entry into the territory of the Ukrainian state is strictly prohibited for those foreign nationals who are trying to take advantage of the closed decision of the country’s checkpoint authorities.

Information for vehicle owners

Crossing the Ukrainian border at vehicle can be carried out in accordance with the law adopted by the Ukrainian authorities on August 12, 2014. According to this law, temporary border control was introduced at the administrative border of the FEZ "Crimea".

Inspection of vehicles and cargo is carried out in accordance with Article 2.

Customs formalities can only be carried out in the relevant zones. These zones are located in places that were determined by the Ukrainian Customs Code.

Information for Russians

Citizens of the Russian Federation who want to get to Crimea through Ukraine should prepare for a difficult and rather extreme journey. First of all, a Russian citizen undertakes to obtain a foreign passport. There is no need for a visa yet. The requirement to carry a passport appeared at the beginning of 2015. Since that time, new rules for the entry of Russian citizens into Ukraine have come into force.

Second an important document is an invitation issued by a private person. This invitation to enter Ukraine must be certified by a notary. The third important requirement is confirmation of solvency.

Registration of a special permit

To cross the border of Crimea with Ukraine, citizens of the Russian state are required to have a special permit. This permit is a kind of pass when passing through a Ukrainian checkpoint. You can obtain this document by contacting the Ukrainian Migration Service. At the same time, it is important to understand that the special is issued. permission is not for everyone. To visit the Republic of Crimea, the traveler must confirm:

1. Availability of registration on the peninsula.
2. Availability of real estate in Crimea.
3. The presence of close relatives living in Crimea.

A serious reason for visiting the peninsula, from the point of view of the Ukrainian authorities, is the report of the death of a close relative who once lived there. Another reason may be the protection of the national interests of the Ukrainian state. A person may also be a railway service employee and need to visit Crimea for the purpose of conducting a routine inspection.

All these grounds must be documented. Russians wishing to travel to Crimea through Ukraine for the purpose of visiting friends living in Crimea are not issued a special permit.

Possible sanctions

It is important to understand that it is now impossible to arrive from the Russian Federation, but to leave through the Ukrainian checkpoint. Crossing the Crimean border in this case is considered illegal by the Ukrainian authorities. Today, the Ukrainian authorities are seriously threatening Russians with criminal prosecution.

In accordance with the laws of the Ukrainian state, an “illegal” trip to the Republic of Crimea can result in an eight-year prison sentence for a Russian citizen. This is possible if crossing the Crimean border is regarded by the Ukrainian authorities as a desire to harm the integrity of the state.

But ordinary tourists should not fear criminal prosecution. First of all, this applies to political and public figures, journalists and even bloggers.

In general, given the difficult political situation, it is not recommended to travel to Crimea in transit through Ukraine. According to some reports, to holiday season In 2018, the number of people wishing to take such an extreme route will be reduced to a minimum.

It is also important to understand that not long ago Ukraine signed an association agreement with the European Union. Therefore, in the near future this state may also enter the Schengen zone. This could lead to Russians actually needing visas to visit Ukraine.

Basic checkpoints

Today, crossing the border of the peninsula and the Ukrainian state is carried out at the following checkpoints:

1. Chongar.
2. Armyansk-Kherson.
3. Armyansk-New Kakhovka-Chaplynka.

To cross the border of Crimea with Ukraine at Chongar, you need to take the Moscow highway to the Kharkov-Dzhankoy direction through Melitopol.

The third checkpoint does not allow all travelers to pass through. Citizens of other states cannot use it.

The list of goods prohibited for import should be studied very carefully. Alcoholic drinks You can carry it, but only in quantities of no more than 5 liters per person. The total weight of transported electronics must not exceed 50 kilograms.

The total amount of cash must not exceed 10,000 euros. Otherwise, the money will need to be declared.

Prescription medications are allowed to be carried only if the traveler has permission from the attending physician. It is important to take into account that some medicines approved in Russia are prohibited on the territory of the Ukrainian state, and vice versa.

It is quite difficult to unequivocally answer the question of what Ukrainian customs officers can confiscate from a traveler while crossing the border. This largely depends on the change of customs officers. There were cases when sausages were confiscated from a person and at the same time people were allowed in with 2-3 bags of onions or potatoes.

But you can play it safe. For this purpose, it is advisable not to take with you a large number of food products. You should also cut off tags from recently purchased clothing items. It is advisable to refuse to transport knives, even if they are part of the cutlery.

Rumors that young Crimeans are being arrested and taken away to an unknown destination have not yet been confirmed. Many travelers confirm that Ukrainian border service employees are still allowing through even those residents of Crimea who have debts on the territory of Ukraine.

What cannot be carried

A person entering the territory of the peninsula from Ukraine is prohibited from having with him:

• fresh vegetables;
• fresh fruits;
• plants' seeds;

• homemade dairy products;
• sausage products;
• frozen fast food.

How to avoid possible problems

To ensure that crossing the border does not turn into a hassle, you need to follow simple recommendations.

First of all, the traveler must have everything with him Required documents. You also need to be prepared for a short “interview” with border guards. They may ask for what purpose the person is crossing the border, and how he plans to travel further.

It is very important to behave correctly with border guards. You cannot be outraged by the new requirements and threaten border guards with criminal prosecution. You should not film crossing the border. Answers to questions should be concise.

You cannot exceed the established period of stay on the territory of Ukraine. A foreign person has the right to stay there for no more than 90 days every 180 days.

It is also necessary to carefully monitor changes in Ukrainian legislation. New amendments appear there quite often. Today there is a restriction on males crossing the state border from Transnistria. It is advisable to plan the route in such a way that the Ukrainian state is number 1 on the entry list after the Russian Federation.

Many travelers resort to a little trick. At the Ukrainian border, Ukrainian passports are presented, at the Russian border - Russian ones.

What's the easiest way to get there?

Persons living in the Republic of Crimea can get to Odessa, Kharkov and Kyiv in two ways.

The first method involves crossing the border at intercity bus. He goes straight to the border. The distance that travelers have to cover in Chongar and Armyansk varies from 400 to 500 meters. After this, the traveler gets on the bus again, presenting the ticket upon boarding.

You can check the bus schedule at the bus station. Flights "Kherson-Simferopol" are carried out 4 times a day. Flights from the capital of Ukraine, Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov are carried out 2 times a day. Flights "Odessa-Yalta" and "Nikolaev-Sevastopol" are carried out up to 5 times a day.

Those wishing to get from Tiraspol to Anapa must first get to Odessa. From there there is a bus to Anapa. The cost of travel varies from 20 to 23 thousand rubles. You can also take the Chisinau-Anapa bus. In this case, the cost of the trip will be slightly lower.

The worst option is to travel through the hub city of Crimea, Dzhankoy. The distance of the neutral zone here is 4 kilometers. It would be best to take a minibus or drive through the neutral zone in a passing car.

More convenient option involves getting to the Crimean-Ukrainian border by bus, crossing the neutral zone and taking the train. It is best to do this in Novoalekseevka, which is located in the Kherson region.

From Novoalekseevka you can get to:

1. Dnepropetrovsk
2. Kharkiv.
3. Zaporozhye.
4. Lviv.
5. Kyiv.

You can get from Chongar to the railway station either by bus or by passing car. You can find both types of transport near the checkpoint.

People traveling by car may encounter some problems when crossing the Crimean-Ukrainian border. the main problem consists of an impressive queue of cars. In some cases, people have to wait in line for several hours. Drivers in passenger cars are allowed through faster. Truck owners are usually searched for a very long time.

Travelers on foot are searched for 5-10 minutes. But sometimes difficult situations arise that require a more thorough, and therefore lengthy, inspection.

Important nuances

Travelers who often cross the Crimean-Ukrainian border continue to look for acceptable options. It is not yet known how the database of the Ukrainian Border Service works. There were cases when travelers entered the Rostov region from the LPR or DPR. The next point was Temryuk. There, travelers boarded a ferry, arrived in Crimea, and from there proceeded to Ukraine.

Some Ukrainians enter the peninsula through the isthmus. The return route may run through Belgorod-Kharkov. According to some reports, travelers crossing the border through Kazacha Lopan do not have any problems with exit and entry.

Often people with an expired passport are faced with the need to cross the Crimean-Ukrainian border. If a person arrives on the territory of Ukraine with the purpose of pasting a photo, he is allowed through, but is fined.

Problems may arise for a person entering Ukraine in a car with a Crimean license plate. This question needs to be clarified in advance by contacting a competent lawyer or the staff of the Ukrainian consulate.

Sevastopol is a large sea ​​port, home of the Black Sea Fleet. A studied map of Crimea with villages will make it possible to better navigate the surroundings of the city - it is surrounded by mountain range, which may seem interesting to connoisseurs active rest.

There are many agencies in Sevastopol that are ready to organize diving and windsurfing, horseback riding, trips along the coast on motor boats and sailing yachts. In the latter case, when traveling to Crimea, you will definitely need a coast map.

Simferopol

Simferopol is located far from the coast, but when traveling to the South Coast it is almost impossible to pass this city. Administrative map The Russian Crimea designates it as the center of the republic. Considering rich history Simferopol, in the city and near it there are many monuments of the past - Scythian Naples, house Vorontsova, estate Sabers. To get acquainted with all the sights, you will need a detailed map of Crimea with villages, indicating all interesting places.

There are many museums and galleries, several theaters and philharmonic societies in Simferopol. As the map of Crimea in Russian suggests, near the city there is the Su-Uchkhan waterfall and the adjacent Kizil-Koba cave, which is an ancient karst system no less than 21 kilometers long. Any map of Crimea in Russian will help you navigate the route to this interesting geographical feature.

Alushta

Moving on mountain track from Simferopol to the south, you can get to Alushta - the second most popular resort on the Crimean coast of the Black Sea after Yalta. As the map of Crimea with cities indicates, the length of the health and tourism complex of Alushta is about 90 kilometers - this is Big Alushta, located between Partenit and the village of Privetnoye.

Sometimes a detailed map of Crimea with villages, depending on the publisher, may depict this zone as a continuous urban development. Alushta is located in a valley surrounded by the mountain peaks of Demerdzhi, Eklizi-Burun and Roman-Kosh.

If travelers have a map of Crimea with houses at their disposal, they can explore the historical sights of Alushta, including the house-museums of writers Ivan Shmelev and Sergei Sergeev-Tsensky. Outside the city there is also the Museum of Nature of the Crimean Reserve along with an arboretum. Within walking distance from the shore there are many attractions and entertainment complexes. A detailed map of Crimea will help you navigate the beach areas, indicating the main recreation areas.

Evpatoria

The city of Evpatoria is located in the western part of the peninsula, among many salt lakes. These are ideal conditions for the operation of balneological hospitals. In addition to the Evpatoria waters, local mud has a healing effect. It’s not for nothing that the map of Crimea with resorts marks Evpatoria as a major health center on the Black Sea coast.

The number of sunny days in the city is greater than in Yalta. The swimming season in Evpatoria begins early, as the shallow Kalamitsky Bay warms up quickly. Although the hydrological map of Crimea contains information about its temperature, it is better to rely on forecasts from weather forecasters.

In summer, the Evpatoria coast is characterized by breezes that provide cool air with warm water.

To travel in the vicinity of the city, you will need a map of Crimea with villages, since the resorts of Zaozernoye, Novofedorovka and Nikolaevka are located near Yevpatoria. The city is also located in close proximity to the Evpatoria group of lakes, including the Sivash and Moinaki reservoirs. There is a water park on the Evpatoria beach.

Alupka

The city of Alupka is located in the place where the Main mountain range of the Crimean Mountains comes closest to the sea coast. To get here along the winding serpentines, you need a detailed map of Crimea with cities, produced in 2015. The streets in the city are confusing; many neighborhoods have the characteristics of mountain settlements. The length of Alupka along the coast is 4.5 kilometers, and the Ai-Petri peak rises above the city.

Alupka is an integral part of the Greater Yalta agglomeration. A map of Crimea with cities in Russian will help you navigate among the local villages, and it is desirable that it describes in detail South coast peninsula. In addition to resorts, Alupka attracts tourists with the Vorontsov Palace, an architectural monument from the times of the Russian Empire.

Livadia

The settlement of Livadia is another part of Greater Yalta. The village was once used as a summer imperial residence, and in memory of those times, the Livadia Palace has been preserved, today open to tourists. When searching for it, a map of Crimea with cities is useless; it is better to use a detailed map of the southern coast of the peninsula.

Travelers are also interested in Livadia Park, famous for its diversity of plants and shrubs, as well as its unusual landscape. This park is the oldest on the coast. To get to know the surroundings of Livadia in more detail, vacationers can use the services of one of the many agencies that organize excursions - however, if you have a detailed map of Crimea with villages, you can go on a walk on your own.

Oreanda

The village of Oreanda, along with Alupka and Livadia, is a district of Greater Yalta. Its distinctive feature is natural landscapes. Fans of active recreation can visit Krestovaya Mountain, located near the village, and walk along the Tsar’s Trail - in the latter case, a coast map is required when traveling to Crimea.

Oreanda is famous for its Golden Beach, which is considered the best in Greater Yalta. This beach is a natural stretch of coastline strewn with polished pebbles, but not every map of Crimea with villages contains information about its location. The local sea air is suitable for treating people with respiratory diseases.

Massandra

Any map of Crimea depicts Massandra as an eastern suburb of Yalta. Famous wines are produced here: many of the mountain slopes near Massandra are devoted to vineyards. In the village there is a winemaking plant of the same name, which owns rich collection wine

In addition to winemaking, Massandra is famous for the palace of Alexander III, as well as the Massandra Park. The 2015 map of Crimea with cities does not miss these sights in print, unlike earlier versions, where relatively little attention was paid to the coast in the Massandra area.

Bakhchisarai

Bakhchisaray, like Simferopol, is a “continental” resort. Despite the lack of beaches, about half a million tourists visit the city every year. They are mainly attracted by the medieval atmosphere of the city. In addition, as the Russian map of Crimea tells us, Bakhchisarai has an advantageous geographical position, and is located at an important transport junction between Sevastopol and Simferopol. A high-quality map of Crimea online makes it possible to thoroughly study the route connecting these centers.

The main attraction of Bakhchisarai is the Khan's palace. In the vicinity of the city you can see “cave cities”, as well as magnificent natural attractions: locality is located between the Inner and Outer ridges of the Crimean Mountains, and the 2015 map of Crimea will definitely come in handy when traveling through this difficult terrain.

Kerch

Kerch is the most eastern city peninsula, its “sea gate” for those traveling by ferry. The city is interesting because it is a port of both Cherny and Azov seas, and also in close proximity to it there is the water area of ​​Sivash. A map of Crimea with resorts will help you decide on the choice of a suitable beach: both seas, as well as the lake, have different hydrological regimes, so the recreation conditions on their coasts differ.

As the detailed topographic map of Crimea allows you to see, the steppe landscape predominates in the vicinity of the city. Those who wish, in addition to the beaches, can visit the Melek-Chesme mound - an ancient well-preserved burial ground, today converted into a museum.

Old Crimea

This city is located in the east of the peninsula in a place where the steppe, mountains and sea touch. To get here, a map of Crimea in Russian will help: the town is remote from the main tourist routes. However, the settlement has a developed resort infrastructure, and is suitable for those who want to spend their vacation in solitude, away from noisy places crowds of travelers.

There are several galleries and museums in Old Crimea, including the house-museum of Konstantin Paustovsky, as well as the ethnographic museum of the Crimean Tatars. Those who have a 2015 map of Crimea at their disposal can easily navigate the city and its surroundings.

View the nature of Crimea on the map

A detailed map of Crimea in Russian allows you to see that according to the type of landscapes, the peninsula is divided into two zones: the first, steppe, occupies two thirds of its territory, and the second, mountain– remaining space.

The steppe extends from the northern outskirts of the peninsula to its central part, smoothly turns into hills, and then is replaced by mountainous terrain. Topographic map Crimea with its cities suggests that there are areas in the mountains that are not inhabited by humans.

The nature of the vegetation cover directly depends on the features of the relief. So, grass grows in the steppes, but there are no forests. And vice versa: in mountainous areas trees predominate, especially with a developed root system, which are firmly attached to the rocks. Taking this into account, the satellite map of Crimea is divided into two parts: in the north and center it is light green, sometimes with a red or brown tint, and in the south it is dark. Relict vegetation is common on the South Coast.

Climate and weather of Crimea

The peninsula is located in three climatic macroregions; there are also twenty microregions on its territory. Macroregions due to the relief: the detailed climate map of Crimea generally corresponds to the topographic one. First macroregion – steppe– located in the northern and eastern parts of the peninsula, second – foothill and mountain– in the center and closer to the south, and third – South coast – near the very edge of the Black Sea.

Appreciate diversity weather conditions A map of Crimea with wind symbols will help: “home” winds near the coast are rare, they blow much more often in the steppe. Throughout the entire peninsula, air flows from the east and northeast predominate, with the only exception being Feodosia, which is open to western winds.

As for precipitation, the 2018 map of Crimea suggests that in the steppe part of the region there is an insufficient level of moisture. The most precipitation on the peninsula falls on the northern spurs of the Crimean Mountains - more than 1000 mm annually.

Conclusion

Although the map of Russia with Crimea appeared relatively recently, travelers to the republic can use guidebooks published over the past several years. The information provided in the reference books is not out of date, especially if we're talking about about resorts, transport infrastructure, climatic zones.

On the territory of the Crimean peninsula. Satellite map Crimea shows that the republic borders the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions of Ukraine, Krasnodar region and is washed by the Azov and Black Seas. The republic does not include Sevastopol. The area of ​​the region is 26,081 square meters. km.
