Sevastopol - Laspy Gulf, Crimea
The main roads in Crimea start from Simferopol, but there is one big road going along the south coast, from Sevastopol to Sudak, passing through Yalta and Alushta. It's a pretty impressive way. If you start from the Sapun Mountains, near Sevastopol, you will pass near the Balaklava Fort and the Valley of the Dead. The road descends and you can see the Laspy Gulf; then you can stop at a restaurant with Tartarian menue. The prices are moderate and you can dine facing the sea or the mountain climbers, who are quite numerous here.

Foros - Alupka, Crimea
The road goes on through a desert area close to the residences of ex soviet communist leaders, who did not want crowded towns around them. Foros is the next town, where Gorbachev was made prisoner in 1991. Do not miss the Church of Foros! Next stop: the city of Simeiz and the Aquapark in Katsivelly. Simeiz is a very romantic place with many cafes and restaurants. Immediately there follows Alupka, where the Vorontsov Palace is located. The view of the Ay-Petry Mountains from Alupka is sensational!
