The most famous monument of the Stone Age is Akhshtyr cave inhabited about 250 thousand years ago. In the first half of the 6th century BC, a large group of Scythian tribes settled on the coast of the Black Sea.
Greek colonization of the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus began with the appearance of city-states in the 6th-5th centuries BC, and lasted until the 1st century BC. The period from the 1st century till the 5th century AD was the time of Roman colonization of the Black Sea coast.

Travel to Sochi, Russia (2018 vlog) | SO NICE!
Travel to Sochi (Russia 2018 vlog) | One of the best things to do in Russia is to explore new cities. Sochi is among the top Russian Beach Resorts. Located by the Black Sea, here you can enjoy the beach and ski in the same day, as the Caucasus mountains are a short drive. This trip to Sochi, Russia, was on business; hence I couldn't create a longer Sochi video detailing what to do and where to go. But I learned a lot about this city with many lovely new Russian friends! Enjoy!

Trujaniv: isla y playas para relajarse en Kyiv (Kiev), Ucrania
Trujaniv / Isla de Trujaniv - Труханів острів (Trukhanov, trukhaniv, trujanov), un verdadero oasis en medio de la capital ucraniana.
La isla forma parte del barrio Desna (Деснянський район).
#islakiev #playakiev #trujanov
Acceso a la isla: Con transporte público, bajarse en la estación de Metro Poshtova Ploshcha, cruzar la calle, justo en dirección a la iglesia que se encuentra delante de la salida. De allí, unos metros hacia la derecha comienza la plaza, junto a una fuente que funciona en verano y la estación fluvial de la ciudad. A la izquierda de la estación fluvial descender por la escalinata y empezar a caminar por los muelles siempre hacia la derecha, bordeando el río. Seguir alrededor de 15 minutos hasta encontrar un pequeño pasadizo o túnel que fuera está decorado con motivos religiosos (recuerdan el bautismo de la Rus' de Kyiv). A la salida encontrarán una acera y una escalinata, subirla y dirigirse hacia el puente que tendrán a la vista. Atravesar el puente peatonal, alrededor de 10 minutos, y ya estarán en la zona de isla. Hacia la derecha y recto tendrán a disposición toda una serie de bares y lugares de ocio.
Las playas cuentan con servicio de bar y restaurante, y además por las noches suelen organizar baile, cine, y muchas otras sorpresas.
Aquí tienen un link con el puente peatonal que se debe atravesar para cruzar desde el margen derecho del río hacia la isla. El puente ha sido renovado hace un par de meses, así que lo verán más bonito que como sale en el vídeo que lo grabamos el año pasado:
