Crimean surprises. Not our ... approach

“Only the eternal flame will burn out anyway
Let this dream be good, but also not eternal "
Alexander Bashlachev


For a long time I was going to think about how to tell about what I saw and heard. You know, I've heard so many arguments lately when I talked about our sanctions losses “But Crimea is ours,” that it became interesting for me to see for myself how it is there, in our Crimea.



And I was not interested in Sevastopol, and, of course, not in Yalta. With them, just everything is clear and did not feel drawn there. And the hero city of Kerch was very interesting to me. As I thought - undeservedly ignored. All roads usually ran to the side, and the maximum that was known to the average man about Kerch was Adzhimushkai at best.

I had a plan: to seek help from the East Crimean Historical and Cultural Museum-Reserve, which is located in the city of Kerch and is the concentration of historical and cultural information in the city and its environs. On the model and likeness of how I filmed reports and wrote articles in various museums in our country.

That is, in order not to poke at the navigator screen, not to look for what and where, I thought that the museum would simply tell me where to pay attention and what to tell about.

Yeah, now ... I haven't gotten between my eyes for a long time ...

To begin with, I contacted the museum by phone, which was given as the one that resolves all issues with the media. And I kind of like a media representative, and even the most suitable in the profile.

+7 (36561) 64769. The phone is a symbol of disappointment.

To begin with: in our Crimea, employees of state institutions do not introduce themselves. By no means. As I understand it, they are all classified. So who I talked to, I have no idea.

I behaved very decently: I introduced myself, told what I, in fact, would like from the museum. Information about the places of battles (except for Adzhimushkaya, I myself know about him), significant cultural and historical locations and so on. In order to tell your readers, they may find it necessary to visit these places.

Six (!!!) people listened to me, and safely retreated. Somewhere they switched the call, someone called. Madam Anonymus. Not one introduced (despite my requests). And each, after listening to my tirade, sighed with relief and gave out the phrase that she was not doing this.

The question is, what the devil are you even grabbing the phone for?

And only the seventh anonymous interlocutor knew where to go. To Simferopol. There, in the Ministry of Culture of Crimea, it will be necessary to submit a number of documents, and when the Ministry issues us accreditation, they will talk to us. But not before. And she also took her leave with relief.

In general, everything became clear, to clear my conscience, I dialed the very Ministry of Culture of Crimea by phone +7 (3652) 544-327 and asked how long such questions are usually processed. A very polite girl said slyly: “In accordance with the deadlines set by the law. But we usually get things done faster. Two weeks".

Well, it's my own fault, I had to apply for a month. But the trouble is, the trip spontaneously turned out to be 200% and I had one week before departure.

And then I realized that nothing would work out with the museum and I would look for what is good and what is bad in Crimea myself. Without outside help.

To be honest, you don't have to try too hard. Nobody hides anything, because as soon as we move away from the topic of puzogreism and turn towards cultural recreation, Crimea begins to show its true face. Quite original.

So, the hero city of Kerch.


The symbol of the city is very so ... vital

I set myself the task of choosing epithets for this city. I chose two words: indifferent and unlucky.

Indeed, for a hero city he is too ... neglected or something. Moreover, the whole. Both the roads and the decoration of the streets are covered with some kind of provincial mold.




Someone will be surprised, but in Crimea at every corner there are figovines with the joyful news that Crimea is 7 years old at home! And the signs and signs are still there, in Ukraine. And nothing, everyone is happy with everything.






And people are peculiar. I talked with the workers of the "Zaliv" (this is generally a separate topic) and with ordinary residents. Well, there were two of us, and we were able to get the dead man talking. So, judging by the conversations of local residents, they do not need either tourists or holidaymakers. They need to be left alone. And the most terrible times for them, it turns out, were the times when Ukraine closed the borders and Russian vacationers went to Crimea via a ferry.

Very strange people, to be honest.

So, finding ourselves without the support of knowledgeable people, we began to act at our own peril and risk. That is, to look for something that the so-called Internet can reach. In fact, a certain provider "Volna-2" was able to indicate that I had the Internet and nothing more. What kind of money it flies into, in principle, everything is already in the know.

In general, communication in the Crimean international roaming is something. Something slow and sad and expensive. Constantly missed corners due to the dull internet, but once it even benefited.

We decided to start by climbing Mount Mithridates. As they decided, they refused. The staircase, not inferior to the one in Odessa, was blocked, because there was a renovation.


Okay, such trifles could not stop us, and therefore we undertook a roundabout maneuver and entered from the rear. In the rear, everything was fine, on a small platform there was a mobile coffee pot and two whole merchants. And an observation deck overlooking the bridges.


The inspection showed that all the repairs on Mithridates are the re-laying of tiles on the site by three representatives ... yes, everything is fine, they are already there. The tile is in good hands. As soon as the entire memorial was closed for this, I am not sure that I know the correct answer.

The Eternal Flame was made very beautifully and with a good idea. True, it is not eternal, because it did not burn. So, in general, it would probably look beautiful from bridges, but alas. And why it doesn’t burn, no one really could explain. It just doesn't burn. "Not a season" - suggested one of the souvenir sellers.








In general, this phrase should be remembered, this is the new motto of the whole Crimea. "Out of season" - and you can not give a damn if not all, then the main majority of problems.

Ask, why didn’t I get into all sorts of administrations there to find out? So it was Sunday ... But about the weekend - it will be a little lower, with photos.

In general, the fact that the Eternal Flame is not such in the hero-city of Kerch was somewhat disappointing. We are from the city to which the Hero was not given, now just a city of military glory, but THREE Eternal Flames are burning. No problem.

Let's move on.

Next, we have excavations of the Greek city of Panticapaeum.


Ancient city. Excavations. It all looks like no one really cares about this Panticapaeum. Here in Anapa, too, in the center of the city, there is a museum of archeology and excavations of the settlement of the same Greeks. But for some reason it looks very civilized. The excavation is fenced off, there is nothing for outsiders to do.




Passed, looked, saw everything. You can take a photo.

Everything is simple in Panticapaeum. Open to everyone. The only thing is that there are signs urging you not to climb the masonry. on them, of course, everyone spits, who needs to be photographed on the masonry. Everything is falling apart, children are running around ancient buildings, even adults are climbing. Everything is surprising somehow.












Like a monument. But the monument is strange and one gets the impression that no one needs it. Therefore, everything looks more like ruins, which will soon be simply taken away for souvenirs. unpleasant experience, to be honest.

Then we went to Adzhimushkay.


It was not possible to get into the quarry due to the fault of the Ministry of Defense. In the Crimea, the most TE maneuvers were going on, and the Ministry of Defense decided to acquaint the soldiers with the historical heritage in their free time from combat work. Good thought, no questions asked.


An army truck can be seen quite normally in the parking lot. Every hour another one of the same drove up and the groups walked one after another. You should have seen the faces with which the soldiers left the dungeons, so here I am not offended. Next time I'll go.

There is a terrible mess on the territory of the memorial. It's amazing how everything was done there. There is parking, but there is no sidewalk from it. You must either walk along the carriageway, or cross the road and trample the lawn in order to reach another sidewalk.


The fence is present in places. Work is underway, but only one question is brewing: is this all that you have been able to do in 7 years?








While the question of the museum is still there ...

There is a monument to the border guards. The border guards are generally great on a national scale. They put their small, inexpensive (visible) but necessary monuments.




And the monument is appropriate for railway workers.
But why not plant bushes, somehow ennoble everything? It turns out that the monuments are just stumbled. Everything is so unkempt ...


In general, not only did not impress Adzhimushkai, but disappointed. The dining room will be built ... It's a good thing, of course. But what people have been doing there for seven years is very difficult to say.


Further, believing the navigator (in vain), we went to the point, which was named as "the Yeni-Kale fortress". The navigator honestly warned that there would be no road there for 300 meters (I didn't lie), but twice led us in the wrong direction on the way. But he brought him to the coastal warehouse with seafood. To be honest, we could not resist, and stocked up decently, because the prices were just very pleasant.

At the same time, the saleswoman explained how to get to the "fortress". Not particularly choosing expressions. "Why do you need these excrements" - so it sounded in translation from a very such Russian. The boatswain's wife, not otherwise.

We reached the fortress ...




Combat transporter with the emblem of the "Military Review" against the background of the ruins


Total: this is not a fortress. It is a ruin. Falling apart. Not protected by the state. No signs, no fences or warnings. It's sad. Very sad.














Nobody (unfortunately) needs old stones. Ask a question - the answer will be that the lack of funding is to blame for everything and the like. Strange, the Crimea was choking with money, they could not master the budgets. And here is the attitude to monuments.

Yes, there are still half-bastions not completely destroyed at this fortress in another place, but I simply did not go there, because I did not know the road, and I was already tired of partisans. In any case, in all the sources, Yeni-Kale has the status of "ruins" and a hundred things must be done in an amicable way.

But we will talk about the fortress separately. There will be more fortresses ...

Unfortunately, it was not possible to get to other museums either. Sunday. All closed.




Yes, of course, museum staff are people too. And they need the weekend too. If during the season - then vacationers, in principle, no matter what day to visit the museum. Of course, it's not worth focusing on strangers from the continent. Moreover, such ... critics.

The amazing city of Kerch. On the one hand, it seems to be still sitting in the seventies, on the other, it seems like a card of the same Sberbank is accepted ... Although banks, shops, gas stations - all do not understand whose. But this is the case throughout the Crimea. He seems to be like ours, but who runs the business there is not entirely clear.


In the cities I noticed that there are city flags on every corner. Nice. For one Russian, there will be about a dozen locals for sure.


If we put aside the notorious "season", which everyone is so eagerly awaiting, then everything does not look very nice. Yes, the roads from city to city are simply superb. But in the same Kerch there are so many holes that you start to wonder. Especially after Anapa.

Yes, one can complain that under Ukraine ... Well, how much more can you blame the Ukrainian authorities? Seven years, as it were. And the money immediately went to Crimea. And they went well. So what? Do you have money for banners reminding about this, but not for signs in Russian? And there are no normal roads?

Seven years at home. So it was written on one of the billboards. And what, in seven years the house can be cleaned in any way?

Strange sensations. I expected to see one thing, but in reality ... But in reality, a return to Soviet times. The hero city of Kerch disappointed. There is nothing to catch the eye at all. Blank photos. Well, except, perhaps, shipbuilding, but we will talk about this separately.

Work, it can be seen, is complete. There is something, there is something. Why the second hero city of Crimea looks like a provincial and provincial town is a question for the authorities, of course. There is something to show. But all this needs to be put in order.

Kerch residents, perhaps, “rent apartments and premises inexpensively”, and more work to make it interesting to be in the city for more than two hours?

And, unfortunately, to be continued.

      This Roman was not on the eve of the World Cup in Rostov. There, during the repair work before the championship, they found Scythian mounds, for a YEAR they suspended the work and completed it in a fire brigade with such quality that it was immediately clear: half of what had been done would fall apart safely by the fall. There are a dime a dozen of such "corners" all over the country. Not only in Crimea. Unfortunately, of course.

          From what he saw and read, it became so sad. Apparently people living in Crimea. in 7 years they will not "depart" from the Ukrainian heritage. Many thanks to the author for the article.

          And who needs it? For those who are not in Crimea? And they got to do with? Well, some sort of arrived ..... to carry out an audit of the monuments. So what? The main result of the past seven years is the earning industry, the corresponding wages, infrastructure, the preservation and expansion of our strategic capabilities to secure the southwestern flank against the permanent enemy. And tourists, monuments, asphalt in the adjoining territories, of course, are also important, but in the second place. It is clear that the author needs to somehow mess up the work carried out by the current leadership of Russia. But in this case he shows that he is not able to "see the forest behind the bushes." Well, this is typical for him ...

              This is the truth. For yourself and for yourself. Not for bystander journalists. But the author somehow forgot to ask their opinion. I myself periodically live in Crimea. Locals do sometimes feel nostalgic for the Ukrainian way of life, in which all issues were resolved by the amount of information included in this or that presence. You can hear a lot of criticism of the authorities. After all, they are officials themselves, in the overwhelming majority of the same, from Ukrainian times, and the old reflexes are still alive. But at the same time, they all perfectly understand that those who are pressing the Donbass today, Crimea would simply be cut out “for the lawn,” and there would be tens or even hundreds of thousands of victims from the “peace”. In addition, they would play the national Tatar card, and there is no less extremism than in IS. Therefore, I assess the article as frankly weak, the material does not at all reflect the title in terms of the depth of presentation. I would call it an emotional outburst at a dirty street toilet at an old gas station ...

            The terrible squalor of cities and towns, roads, infrastructure, and just a matter of cleanliness. I rested in Shchelkino on the Sea of ​​Azov. This is darkness! Dirt, shit, rubbish just in packets all over the town.
            Yes, we pulled something up - the bus station was repaired. But why do the city authorities give a damn about the basic arrangement of the embankment? Tourism is the only source of income here. Painting rusty railings, throwing a couple of shovels of asphalt, solving the problem with illegal catering points - this does not require "millions from Moscow." Ugh ... The feeling that life froze in the time of the late Brezhnev. I generally keep quiet about the connection. "Krymnash" in INTERNATIONAL roaming at wild prices.
            Although you come somewhere in the outback of Russia - and there is essentially the same thing. Even in the oil-rich regions, such unsettledness and dirt reigns that all that remains is to swear.

            And for those who have not been to Adzhimushkai, it is MANDATORY to visit the memorial. Impressions for a lifetime. Powerful and SCARY.

          About the fact that the monuments to Soviet soldiers are sometimes in a terrible state, I agree, but what have the crosses to do with it? The matter is not in the crosses, but in the desire of our elite to repent "for the crimes of communism." They have in their heads the equation "USSR = penal battalions-detachments-GULAG". So it is precisely for this that the fashion did not pass, and not for crosses.

              I agree, Eugene. This is how these "citizens" are praying to the collective West. If not for their support, there would be no Navalny, no Echo of Moscow, or others, about which Pushkin spoke best of all:

              You enlightened your mind,
              You saw the pure light of truth,
              And dearly loved the nations,
              And he hated his wisdom.

              200 years have passed, but find at least 1-2 differences, as they say. Nothing has changed. This means genius - to say so that the words do not lose their relevance at all times. Although here one has only to regret that Alexander Sergeevich was so right. It's a very bitter truth ...

        I tried to put things in order in the underground GSK. I took out the trash by car. And he spoke, and warned and hung up advertisements. Useless. Throw in again, although the trash can is one block from here and everyone is in cars. They throw, piss, break bottles - their own. The funny thing is, no one has a car cheaper than half a million.

        Have you messed up anything? Start over, with the very first speeches of Vladimir Vladimirovich and his attitude to the Tatar, Ukrainian and Russian languages ​​on the peninsula. It is enough for us that money was thrown out to replace the Russian-language signs. Do you want more money to be spent on the expulsion of the Ukrainian language? Crimea, being a part of Ukraine, remained Russian, finally we formalized it legally, but this does not mean that we need to delete the Ukrainian language. Fascists need to be erased, wow, and don't forget to remove the fascist from yourself ...

And everyone owes them! We have to build roads, remove garbage and so on and so forth. They are not even ashamed of their devastation. Watch the video of A. Polovinka on, there interesting things were filmed, in particular on the Gulf. But in every shoot there is collapse and devastation. Try to call the bridge Crimean in Kerch - they will be offended.

I know for sure that any normal person dreams of a good life, and in this concept he includes the health of loved ones, comfortable housing and vocational work with normal wages. And Crimea is no exception here. And the facts show that Crimea is not financed on a leftover basis. Only people are uncomfortable living on an unsinkable aircraft carrier, regardless of belonging. Peaceful life within Russia presupposes the opportunity to enjoy the same rights and services as on the mainland.

          What kind of pebble are you grasping there? Clay shard? So the entire multi-meter layer covering the foundations of the ruins is a continuous mix of stones, shards, human bones. Step aside from the excavation site and take whatever you want the same everywhere. In the excavation there is nothing but scattered large stones. All the walls that you see in the photographs are remakes. Collected from excavated stones by the "archaeologists" themselves. I would understand the closure of visitors' access if they opened these foundations and left them as they are, covered them with glass so that the rains would not wash them away. And so nothing historical is left there!

    And I was not interested in Sevastopol, and, of course, not in Yalta. With them, just everything is clear and did not feel drawn there.

    It is completely incomprehensible what exactly is “understandable” to Roman about Sevastopol and Yalta.
    Since 2016, every year I go to rest in Sevastopol. I really love this city, but this is not about that now.

    I'm talking about this:
    Seven years at home. So it was written on one of the billboards. And what, in seven years the house can be cleaned in any way?

    We were based not in the city itself, but on the North Side, where in Soviet times the entire coast was "lined" with sanatoriums and rest homes. On our first visit, we walked along the coastline and in a row of former sanatoriums saw: devastation-devastation-devastation-reborn-devastation-revived-devastation devastation-reviving ... The next year, the transition from the state of "devastation" to the state of "reviving" was clearly noticeable, and on the next one and from the state of "reborn" to the state of "ready to receive guests."
    In the city itself, the restoration work of tourist sites is also under way. And tourists are noticeably welcome there. In any case, those who are in contact with them (hotels, guides, museums). And ordinary people, at least, are friendly. After all, it is thanks to us, tourists, including the money spent on restoration. What is being done for tourists is also being done for the townspeople.

    Described in the article is a problem, yes. Seven years? A lot, of course. But if Crimea was falling apart for over 20 years, then how long does it take for its COMPLETE revival? Both time and money. To break is not to build. I hope to live to see the full return of the “pearl” status to Crimea.

And it will come to Kerch, I'm sure. It is impossible to instantly restore all the devastation that was systematically carried out in the Crimea for decades. First of all, the money goes to transport infrastructure and the most significant tourist sites. Which will attract tourists and provide additional money for further restoration. And now also on water problems.

      Kerch was not a tourist city in Soviet times either; the city was the industrial center of Crimea. During the years of management of Kiev, almost all production that was possible was ruined. Ukraine has not invested anything in the development of the city. Roads that have not yet been repaired are still adorned with asphalt laid back in the USSR (more precisely, with what is left of it). But the main problem of the industrial city is that it is much more difficult to restore the industry than to destroy it. Therefore, the city's budget is now very modest. If the construction of the bridge, the reconstruction of the Mithridatskaya staircase or the strengthening of the coast in Arshintsevo is carried out at the expense of earmarked funds from the federal budget, then the rest of the city is trying to do at the expense of its meager funds.

        Yeah, and you, unlike Deribegs, know how to make a Great Aegain not in 30 years, but in 30 days! Well, finally there was a man! Tell us how you will do it. Let the Rothenpaski learn. Yes, and we are interested.

        Eltigen-Geroyevka near Kerch, in the middle of the "XNUMXs" there was an incompletely plundered "open-air museum" with military equipment of the army and navy (including those raised from the bottom of the sea and from dead ships), marked on the spot shelters and firing points of the landing, a monument in honor of the Eltigen landing party-Sail, at the high-rise (in place of the enemy pillbox-exploded debris of which were lying around this hill, the links of loose ammunition belts of air cannons and sleeves, fragments and shanks of mortar mines were generally a lot underfoot, especially along the edges of vegetable gardens and plowed fields, and part of Hitler's trench positions and an artillery pillbox on the crest of the hill dominating over the coast, even then, were still in good condition, although they were already fairly dug ...), by the sea on a sandy beach, on a low pedestal stood, raised from the bottom of the sea, a Soviet landing craft, "to the teeth" armed with small-caliber cannons (although in such an "artillery configuration" it was inferior in weapons and I live honor to the Hitlerite high-speed air defense landing barges, which dominated the strait, and hunted the cruising Soviet boats and supply boats for the landing and often shot down and finished off our aircraft damaged over the Crimean coast, except for the BDB in the water, during the Kerch-Eltigen landing operation, many German anti-boat min ....)
        and there was a local museum of local lore in Heroevka (Eltigen) - I and my family liked it - I recommend it for a family visit!
        Why did Roman rush to the fortress and Adzhimushkai, and in the famous Eltigen, also next to Kerch, the road is good-asphalt-concrete (along its entire length, that is, it was possible to drive a "military vehicle with the VO emblem" without any problems! Yes ) haven't been ?! what

        I have been to Kerch so many times, but I have never visited the Yani-kale fortress and Adzhimushkai ...
        The city, of course, was in the "nineties" and "zero" already "tired", and the royal staircase to Mount Mithridad and the tombs under it were in a terrible state, everything was crumbling ... about Kamysh-Burun (Arshintsevo) and "sleeping districts "one could say that they are" desolate ".... I hope that now at least something has turned for the better, I would very much like that! Yes

          Everything has been preserved there, the Parus itself is under restoration, it is being put in order, the open museum has been preserved, everything is painted, there are signs, it was in the building of the old museum for a long time, now I don’t know what state it is, but there is no desolation in Eltigen. This year, the repaired road to Eltigen was completed - it will be even more comfortable to get there.
          Do not trust Skomorokhov - everything is fine there in the city, and the views are so amazing that no Sevastopol and Yalta can compare with the view of the strait, the sea and a series of ships constantly plying through it.

    Kerch is not the South Coast, but now, when the bridge and the road have bypassed the city, it will remain provincial.
    Skomorokhov must remember that at the referendum the people of Crimea voted not for streets and pavements that were "licked" for them, but for leaving Ukraine and entering the Russian Federation, and no one promised them that they would catch up with migrant workers and in 7 years all Crimeans would live like in Moscow.

    Well, in general, although Roman has recently started fighting, but here I agree with him. The topic of this constant slovenliness should be raised. Crimea is a potential tourist Mecca. THERE IS JUST A LOT OF WHAT YOU CAN SEE. At one time I made a list of what I want to see and in one trip I barely mastered a third. And at the same time, everything is extremely poorly organized. The same excursions around Crimea and trips to tourist places are absent in many places. Getting to many places without a car is extremely difficult. On the spot, many of the tourist attractions are extremely unkempt. SERVICE EXTREMELY SUFFERING. There is still work and work. And it is necessary to poke the local authorities and those responsible for the tourist content in full growth. Well, first of all, the money goes away, which the Crimea could row with a shovel and beat off infrastructure costs. Plus the sale of souvenirs, etc.
    I'll support the Banshee here. I wish him to travel to all the tourist places of Crimea and note all the problems. But first of all, all this should be reduced to a request to local authorities and newspapers. There are questions about Kerch. So it is necessary to organize a request to the local authorities and poke them with a face. And especially hope that this is not just a mess, but a loss of money.

    Yes, the city of Kerch did not please Skomorokhov. Probably the city did not know that Skomorokhov would come to see the sights. He did not restore the fortress, he did not plant trees, and so on. He did not. And it should have been. Why in Crimea, a bridge, an airport, reservoirs, two power plants, new, built from scratch, railway stations, a road, and more than one, hospitals, schools ... The main thing is to restore the fortress and 300 meters of road to it by Skomorokhov's arrival to lay.

    it is necessary to separate the flies from the cutlets. what do the officials have to do with it? the system is built like this. now capitalism. everything needs money. federal money goes to the bridge, to the highway, to the water, and to something else for something global. for roads in the city and tourist sites from where is the money? - right from the city budget. and what is he made of? yes a couple of items of income, and maybe even from a town-forming enterprise, and then if it, like everyone else, does not pay taxes to Moscow. that is, there is a shortage of money. and if the mayor spends money in the wrong place (on tourist sites), he faces a prison ...

    In fact, the Kremlin has nothing to do with Crimea and Kerch personally. It's just that in 14 the person's rating crawled down, so they decided to raise it with a small victorious war. This had two more pleasant consequences: on the infusions into the Crimea, you can arrange a truly royal drank, and these could not but know that there would be sanctions for such squeezing ... having appropriated these funds for themselves. That is, only the loot is interesting, the country - to the light bulb.

      Yes indeed. Well, what does the Kremlin care about Crimea. Stop, wait a second, but Crimea is Russia. Does it mean that the Kremlin has NOTHING to do with Russia? Everything that the Kremlin is doing is being done for the benefit of which country? I'm waiting for an answer.

        The answer is obvious: only for the good of your pocket. For these, Russia is just a territory of plunder. None of these are planning to stay in Russia for a long time, these are only shift workers. They will plunder - and home, to the flourishing countries of the West.

            Capitalism is also in Norway or South Korea. It is not worth denigrating all capitalism. It's just that we don't have the same capitalism. If you think very deeply, there has not yet been a bourgeois revolution in Russia, that is, in terms of formations, it is the closest to ours - a late feudal system, approximately like in the then Spain, in which everything is expensive, except silver.

                Age means nothing. In Poland or Estonia, capitalism is also quite young - however, in Estonia per capita GDP is already higher than in Russia, Poland is already catching up with Germany in terms of living standards. You can also remember that China finally embarked on the path of capitalism also in the nineties - and the successes are extremely great.

                    Nothing terrible will happen to Poland. The money was used wisely and now Poland does not depend on subsidies at all. Few remember that those huge tranches did not rush into nowhere, as Russia loves to do. These were targeted investments for specific projects, with a strictly agreed rate of return and a return period. There are no altruists in the west, te lards are not free. Tranches were allocated for economic growth, on the basis of which a decision was made: whether or not to allocate tranches yet. With its steady growth, Poland has proven that it can be trusted. And tranches were allocated. And China ... State capitalism, or rather, state monopoly, is the highest stage in the development of capitalism. According to the law of concentration, small capitals tend to merge with larger ones. And the state always owns the largest capital. And when a company wins the competition and becomes a monopoly, it opens up new horizons for safety and super-profit. And it seeks to become related to the state. There are exactly the same processes: in the party struggle, one wins and seizes the full power, declaring a one-party dictatorship. And, striving to consolidate his position, he longs to become related to the monopolies. This is the convergence point of two processes - the natural transition of democracy to dictatorship and competition to monopoly. Since the processes are natural, it is useless and stupid to interfere with them. I have always said: it is not monopoly itself that is bad, but the abuse of a monopoly position. So is the dictatorship. Coming back, as competition disappears and all companies are owned by the state, the market disappears. Capitalism with a planned economy is coming, the closest example I think is Germany under an artist. And, if we put all the dark horror aside and look purely economically, such an economic model was extremely successful.

    that's that . We must teach and compel. Since Peter the Great taught and forced to cut beards, so now, and for a long time, it is necessary to teach and force to cut lawns and grass in Russian cities. It is necessary to force to check the quality of coatings not only of new highways, such as Tavrida, but also the quality of how the tiles are laid on sidewalks, on embankments, in squares, etc. Now, if instead of singing panties every day on central TV channels there was at least an hourly daily program about how city squares and parks should look like, undoubtedly this would be a lesson to people what is beautiful and how to achieve it. And to punish officials for not well-groomed proud. Teach and punish for unlearned lessons. Everything is very simple and do not hesitate to study. But I see how Russia is changing. Every summer we eat across the whole of Russia from St. Petersburg to rest and be treated in Kislovodsk. We go by train to see Russia. And if I made a report for myself every year, then now I could compare that everything I saw on the way and Kislovodsk itself have changed a lot for the better in ten years. In many ten years, even beyond recognition. So Russia still has to learn to make the cities beautiful. And next summer to the Crimea. But what is strange is that I have visited many "bobbed" and well-groomed cities in Europe and I am no longer attracted to them. Russia is nicer, and somewhere there is a fear that if in Kislovodsk or Sochi everything is cut and tiled like Karlovy Vary or Baden, then it will no longer be Russia ...

    "not our ... approach" - with what to compare? Ours, whose is it?
    If you know Adzhimushkai in Kerch, this is already a plus for you. Kerch is not a tourist Mecca, but an industrial city, we have sensible beaches that are not in industrial zones. Yes, the main enterprise of the Gulf plant is almost destroyed, but people are working and restoring it. It's really a pity that he got into private hands, and it's not clear into which ones ...
    Now in Kerch, everywhere, and especially in the center, there are construction sites, where finds are not everywhere. The workers of the historical reserve are sewn up. Not only did the construction of the road work, but also fresh finds almost every day. And then some Vasya showed up and, instead of rummaging through the Internet, he decided to strain people, well, tell him, chew it, and put it in your mouth. Krasava!
    Your readers? This is the first time I see you, and after what I have read, I will bypass the tenth way, not only to share my knowledge or history with you. Blogger ... c.
    He chose two words! "indifferent and uneasy."! Complete nonsense, there is no cranking to do. most of those living and working here.
    "for the hero-city he is too ... neglected or something" - you didn't fall off the moon, did you? We launched it for twenty years, and you want it to be restored in seven? Maybe he could open his eyes! The city is in full swing. And the historical values ​​are being restored. Only "nice man" at the snap of your fingers does not do it. In Russia, the bureaucracy is such that it is impossible to hammer in a nail without a piece of paper. Where did you come from so beautiful, and even not knowledgeable.
    everything is covered with some kind of provincial mildew. - so you didn’t go to the capital for tea! A provincial industrial city, in which the devastation has gone no worse than the great Patriotic and not three years, but two whole decades. A lot of enterprises have been killed, and the rest are barely alive, and then in private hands, which seem to be in no hurry to invest, there is a crisis in the world. So it stands as it is, and we love its inhabitants as it is, and mold, wherever possible, we wipe it off.

    ! "signs and signs are still there, in Ukraine. And nothing, everyone is happy with everything." and what do you suggest? Spend a bunch of dough to change the signs? You don't know that we have three languages ​​and all state languages, including Mova. On your photos there is one inscription, little understandable to a Russian-speaking person, "vul." but its location clearly indicates its translation, only the full t ... and will not be able to guess what it means. And what the hell did you see with the news that seven years at home?
    What do you think is a lie? We are not at home? You would have spoken and not spoken.
    "So, judging by the conversations of the locals, they don't need tourists or holidaymakers." I repeat especially for you - Kerch is an industrial city, at least it was, the locals do not contain boarding houses and hotels (well, of course, there are those who are glad to tourists, who make money on this, but there are very few of them, in Russia everything is so arranged that they will invest and opening a travel business is very difficult, and besides, you can lose it at once, for example with Taigan.
    So the majority of Kerch residents are neither cold nor hot from tourists, only prices are growing like a tower, there is no large tourist infrastructure from a word at all! Sewerage flows into the sea, you cannot swim there. I do not know who is to blame, but the repair of the city began not with replacing the Soviet sewage system and water supply system that were being patched every day, but with the fact that this sewer and water supply system was covered with new roads, so that some new roads have already been excavated. I don't think the city authorities have the ability to decide what to do and how to build. They gave them to repair roads, so they make roads, they gave them to repair yards, so they make them. And there is no money on the network, you guys are holding on. Hold on ...
    And we are repairing networks.
    "I constantly missed the turns because of the dull Internet," - what are you doing! I was surprised! So this is now a Russian connection, in Ukraine it cost a penny and did not blunt. And now there are sanctions, none of the Russians want to be drawn here in full. But it should be noted that now there is the Internet, and in the comments people answer you that your hardware is stupid, since everything worked and works for them. And it works for me, and new providers have appeared, and the Internet is there. You would have rushed in June, if only you were surprised at their Internet, perhaps Biden would have reached with complaints.
    And why are you not saying what kind of money he flies into? This is the first time I hear about the expensive Internet.
    Communication, yes, dear because in roaming, well, this is not a question for us "buddy"! Moreover, not to the Kerch people.

    The staircase, not inferior to the one in Odessa, was blocked, because there was a renovation.
    - here is a misfortune that was not in time for the arrival of your highness, to establish the restoration!
    and therefore we made a roundabout maneuver and entered from the rear... - I thought you wouldn't guess, everyone finds the way, because it is the main one for everyone who is in cars. And tourists like you need all the museum men in their arms to carry them up the mountain and, along the way, tell different stories. Well, honor and praise to you that we have dealt with the road. And who told you that the staircase is not inferior to the Odessa one! After all, the stairs are different, built at different times, different scales, and their history is different. How to determine which of them is in what inferior or ahead of? What nonsense?
    It was worth closing the entire memorial for this - I'm not sure I know the correct answerThat is, for the sake of the tiles, of course, it was not worth it, but for the sake of what was done with the memorial, it was so unambiguously necessary to overlap, otherwise, such as you would have found there at the construction site, adventures.
    The torch does not burn, because the repairs are underway. You burn, and we will burn!
    Everything looks as if no one really cares about this Panticapaeum. Here in Anapa, too, in the center of the city there is a museum of archeology and excavations of the settlement of the same Greeks. But for some reason it looks very civilized. The excavation is fenced, there is nothing for outsiders to do - I don’t know how you, but for me it is much more interesting to walk around ancient places than remakes as in Anapa from the side. The site at the top of the mountain, as you yourself noticed, is small and let's also fence off the excavations from people, but we will tear the loot without measure, for looking at the ancestors.
    "Everything is falling apart, children are running around ancient buildings, even adults are climbing. It's amazing somehow." - let it be known to you that not a single wall remained from Panticapaeum, everything was destroyed and covered with a seven-meter layer of clay with stones, and now if excavations are being made, they are all remains of foundations, the walls that you see are reconstruction. You can climb on it, the new archaeologists will add.
    In Adzhimushkai, there are not enough sidewalks, but every year there are expeditions one by one, digging up those who fought there. When the latter is dug up, let the sidewalks be laid, for those who come to gaze. Those who will honor the memory of the dead will want those and the dusty Crimean land will suit. So I report, for all seven years, they have been digging so that the lives buried there are not forgotten ...
    About the amount "This is a ruin. Falling apart. Not protected by the state. No signs, no fences or warnings. Sad. Very sad." - Well, here you are the head of "Captain Obvious" (I hope you know what they call him). Yes, these are the ruins of a Turkish fortress. And yes they are not guarded. But the fortress "Kerch" is guarded in it restoration work is underway, both volunteers and the state work in it. It is better preserved and is of historical value, and is located in a place interesting for tourists. But you would not rush to criticize something. Maybe over time, the Yenikale fortress will be guarded and they will sell tickets for tourists. Will you be happy then? Yes?
    And the money immediately went to Crimea. And they went well. So what? There is money for banners reminding about this, but for signs in Russian there is no money? And there are no normal roads? - you would be the leader of this construction site, you would sing differently, in the wrong hands the wallet is always thicker ...

      totally agree with you. And there is a premonition that the author of the article did not lift a finger in his hometown in order to put everything in perfect order there. Or maybe he put things in order in his city and now, rolling up his sleeves, will begin to bring industrial Kerch into perfect order to the level of a resort? And somehow I doubt that he takes a mower and mows the lawn near his house, if no one has done it there. Perhaps his dacha was overgrown with weeds. By the way, last year there was an article in VO with content on the contrary. There, the author described how he, who arrived in Bulgaria from an industrial city in Siberia, was amazed by the beauty of the Bulgarian Sunny Beach, in comparison with his hometown in Russia. And in the comments we suggested, either from the beginning to visit him in Russian Sochi, or to visit the industrial city of Bulgaria far from the Black Sea, and then the desire to shit on Russia may pass. They did not receive a response from the author of that article ... By the way, reports can be made from such places and suburbs or districts of Rome, Vienna or Paris that even industrial Kerch in comparison with them will seem like a paradise. You just need to set a task for yourself, whom to spoil in the report. Here, such authors are not engaged in criticism, but like those bad birds that shit in their nest, in this case ...

    And Skomorokhov did not confuse anything? Why do most commentators want to turn Crimeans into Chaldeans and lackeys under the Moscow majors? Are they not enough of Egyptian and Turkish? Crimeans want normal jobs, and not during the season to wash dishes and toilets, but to take out garbage for tourists. By the way, that season is not more than six months. Both the state and the government in Crimea are doing a lot. Why didn't Sberbank open a single branch in Crimea in seven years? And where in Crimea is the Russian Post, the Magnit and Pyaterochka retail chains? Or maybe he thinks that in Crimea there was a wild privatization of industrial enterprises and real estate from Ukrainian owners? They are for the development of Crimea with both hands! The devastation is not in the Crimea and Kerch, but in the heads of the short-sighted scammers! The legal order is just beginning to be established - the recent ban on foreigners from owning land in the border strip. The next step is to suggest that Roman buy out an apartment from Zelensky and, having become a Crimean, lead the establishment of order. After all, "we lacked the leader ..."!

    It is true that Kerchans expect that someone should do everything for them, but they themselves do not show the proper initiative. I think this inertia of dependent behavior got (formed) during the forced coexistence in the already "independent" Ukraine, plus the remaining administrative apparatus and outdated management methods. Russia, on the whole, has done quite a lot for Crimea and Kerch over these 7 years, the author needs to be more objective, it is clear that there is no knowledge of construction projects. repair and reconstruction work, or is the author's attitude towards the negative.

    I traveled to Crimea for many years (now there is no possibility). From the late 90s to 2017, almost every year. Lots of friends there. I am familiar with the "alternatively"-minded daring Tatar local "khans" and with local activists-patriots of Russia (and Crimea) and simply with very many Crimeans, who, in a big orchestral way, are into big politics.
    In general, what can I say .. Dano did not read such a dull, whiny, even I would say infantile defeatist text in VO.
    At the same time, I do not deny that there are a lot of unresolved problems in Crimea. Another question is: are there few of them on the territory of the Russian Federation? However, from the very beginning, I was immediately alerted by the epigraph to the article, from the text of SashBash, which I respected quite well. It is disgusting and low to attract the deep thoughts of our poets to our whining, since SashBash meant something completely different and these lines were written at a completely different time.

    I will not analyze here the Crimean problems associated with communications, banking services, skyrocketing real estate prices, etc. Who needs it, go to the Crimean Internet resources, or better go to Crimea and talk to the locals just for life, and not as a pre-determined and unambiguously motivated media representatives. And you yourself will understand everything. First of all, the fact that many of the problems there are currently simply unsolvable, for a number of more than objective economic, political and technical reasons. And simply, do not forget the saying that "Moscow was not built immediately." And I don’t need to tell you what Crimea was like before 2014 (in 1997 the same Sudak was just a garbage dump) and what it became three years after “Crimeanash”. Yes, new difficulties have appeared, but a large number of old ones have been resolved.
    Not, well, of course, hurt yourself whining on a network resource, without delving into the essence of a certain problem and not offering any ways to solve it. People will read it anyway and opinions will be divided. And why, but because the people are different, everywhere and always, was and will be. And to mow with one comb of some abstract Crimeans is the first step towards the position of a superman, in relation to subhumans.

        I mean the fact that roaming in Crimea is not always reliable in terms of the quality of communication and everywhere with an exorbitant (in comparison with the Russian Federation) price.
        Banks .. There is not a single branch of a purely Russian bank in Crimea. Some Crimean daughters (crutches). Yes, money can be withdrawn from a card of any Russian bank, but there are not enough ATMs and the margin is higher than in Russia.
        At the expense of real estate .. I did not mean rent, but a purchase of property. For several years I have been looking for housing in Crimea, there are familiar realtors. In general, in the subject.
        I also did not go to industrial zones. Only along the coast and a little inland.
        About the travel service .. in general, everything is fine, for every taste and wallet you can find. Although, the rent, for six years Crimeanash, in many places has increased by about 1,5-2 times. But it is understandable, since agricultural products in Crimea have risen in price, after 2014, with it, the entire cost of living rose. But they are actively laying new roads, restored almost all state sanatoriums and boarding houses, etc. In general, it has become cleaner and more civilized, I suppose.

        By the way, I never liked Koktebel at all. Since the mid-90s, it has become a place for the perpetually drugged or drunk geeks. Something like a kazantip. So, I have been there almost every visit, but I did not rest, but only attended the September jazz festivals, which we went to from Sudak and Novy Svet, when we were resting there with the company. In general, as for me, Kokta is probably the worst village on the entire east coast.
        I have not seen this in Sudak. When I talked about the garbage dump in Sudak, until 2001, there was not a single toilet in Sudak at all in the area of ​​the embankment. And the one that stood since the times of the USSR (and still stands) was literally fouled by the message, in several layers, the door cannot be opened. There wasn't much at all then. Some kind of tents with barbecue, wooden cafes (a couple of three stone ones), etc. The only thing was cheap smuggled sturgeon. Only somewhere by 2004 everything became more or less civilized and finally settled down by about 2007. But the former Air Force sanatorium was abandoned, as well as its vast territory, until 2015. The high-rise hotel in the New World, right at the entrance, was also inoperative and wasted in the trash, and only in 2016 it was restored and started up again.
        Sevastopol, Yalta ... Everything is fine there, at least when I was there. And many with whom I still communicate (both Crimeans and my friends in the capital) did not complain.

      Do you want the monument to have a flea market made of tents, so that the city and the bridge cannot be seen behind it! What nonsense! There, on the mountain, few will sit for a long time, this is Kerch, there is a wind!
      We walked around, looked, took pictures (don’t do it against the background of the tents) and down to the embankment there will be souvenirs and tea and beer and cheburek!

I myself am not a "cultural" tourist, all sorts of rafting, fishing, survival are closer to me, but my wife regularly demands to include in the program something like that in the subject. Well, with the same regularity I am looking for an excuse not to wind an extra thousand km ... Ingoda, thanks to such reviews and confirmations of commentators, it succeeds) Thank you)

    So, judging by the conversations of local residents, they do not need either tourists or holidaymakers. They need to be left alone.


    They don't need us, right .. Well, at least someone has the strength to pronounce it ..
    (just as some Sakhalin needs me there, and they are for me)


    But this is the case throughout the Crimea. He seems to be like ours, but who runs the business there is not entirely clear.


    And we don't need them ..
    And they are run by the same ones who were 10 years ago ..
    We just needed this territory ..

    arguments when he spoke about our sanctions losses "But Crimea is ours" that I it became interesting to see it myselfhow it is there, in our Crimea.

    I saw at 12 .. and it was definitely no worse than at 18 ..
    Well, yes .. the only difference is in the spelling and the prefix "our" ..
    For some it warms the soul a lot ..))

    I love this city since childhood. Came here for the first time as a teenager in the 60s. Here I was left to myself, because I lived with my grandmother on a small farm in the steppe (straight after Kataev). What a joy it was to run into the city in the morning and swim until you were completely stupefied, dive from the concrete parapet of the embankment into the wonderful warm Black Sea. To the boy, accustomed to the icy waters of the Tatar Strait, the warm waters of the local seas seemed like a fabulous dream. Sometimes my uncle and I went to Azovskoye to Cape Tarkhan (there were no sewage treatment facilities there yet) and we could swim and bask on the magnificent sandy beach. I was not interested in all sorts of ancient ruins there, it will come with age, later, but the fragments of the past war excited the children's imagination. I found shirts from grenades, shanks stabilizers of mines with impaled capsules, whole unitary cartridges from pt. guns, bayonets, cartridges, etc. The uncle swore heavily and took away explosive items. Naturally, I chose this city for my honeymoon trip. We wandered through the ruins of Panticapaeum, then, of course, visited the Adzhimushkai memorial and the Tsar's grave mound at the same time, and then rested on the beautiful wild beaches of both the Azov and Black seas. Kerch is unique in this respect because it is surrounded on three sides by seas and a strait. The swimming season here lasts almost 5 months from mid-May to mid-October. The beaches with fine silky sand are the best on the coast. Sochi and Yalta are resting with their pebbles and gravel. The city has always been quiet and calm. Zabolotsky's verse "... and this sleepy Crimea and this cypress pressed against the surface of the rock ..." is a little about this wonderful southern city.

    "So, judging by the conversations of the locals, they don't need tourists or vacationers. They need to be left alone."
    They told you absolutely right.
    You have to understand on the mainland that neither Kerch, nor my Feodosia, are never resort towns.
    These are the workers of the city. We have never relied on holidaymakers and other vacationers.
    It is clear that they were and will be here. But this is not the main thing, but rather a kind of bonus. For those who do this.
    Seven years at home.
    And for the ordinary population .... Little has changed.
    There was no work, and still no. A pile of papers / re-papers.
    A bunch of like construction projects. But no one will take you there. Since the builders bring their Tajiks from the mainland.
    I poked-poked -... Three times-thrown. And at schools.
    It's a shame, however. For two months - donate your health for free.
    I barely managed to stick to my SZ.
    So now - here we finished paying the salary ...
    As my welder says, it feels like we are back in Ukraine ...
    Not. I answer him. The feeling that the nineties are back. Only we have not grown younger.hi

    Yes, one can complain that under Ukraine ... Well, how much more can you blame the Ukrainian authorities? Seven years, as it were. And the money immediately went to Crimea. And they went well. So what? Do you have money for banners reminding about this, but not for signs in Russian? And there are no normal roads?

    So the managers in the hero-city of Kerch have remained the same, as they were 7 years ago, and as they used to plunder the local budget, they continue. It is necessary to more actively clean the "Augean stables" left over from the Square. Conduct demonstration landings in order to shake the ingrained cunning of local authorities, and control over the spending of the allocated money for the Crimea. The ukropatriarchal nature of the city is visible - the authorities are in no hurry to part with such "conveniences" from their former life. This is sad. sad

    Nothing has changed in Kerch since the 70s. There, by and large, nothing has changed for the last 50 years. A sort of city-museum-reserve of the times of the USSR. Most likely the temporary anomaly is to blame.

    Article - hype on the negative. Typical. At the coprophilic level. And extremely poor in terms of audience manipulation mechanics. The author, do not blame me. But what I see is what I see. The topic of the phenomenon "Crimea is ours" is 100% only among the security forces and the authorities, and how this affects the "picture" has not been disclosed. From the word at all :) Bump into the phenomenon and just like this picture -

    Who is the author in the photo? Then, judging by the chevron on the jacket, he is an obvious patriot and a journalist of the military resource, well, well ...
    About Crimea ...
    He served (actually just lived) urgent 1986-88 ... arrived in 2020 ... as if he returned to the past ...
    The fact is that the Republic of Ingushetia, the USSR, the Russian Federation, and NATO perceived and perceive the Crimea as a military foothold ...
    And this is quite justified, the entire Black Sea up to the Bosphorus is shot from the Crimea ...
    For nothing else, it is not climatically, not geographically needed ...
    Really inhabited territory in Crimea, this is a narrow strip in the south by the sea, everything else is bare, waterless steppe blown by winds, and stony soil, not comparable with the same Kuban ...
    The civilian population living by the sea lived and live from season to season, and their power on the peninsula is violet, the rest of the Crimean residents are military, former, current, and civil servants, a bit of state employees and officials ... In the USSR, the military preferred to earn experience on In the North, and under the DMB it is transferred to the South ... True, in the USSR, on the South Coast, health resorts for workers from all over the country were built ...
    By the way, who does not know, military pensioners of the USSR Armed Forces were the nucleus of resistance, which organized "Crimea is ours" ...
    The money allocated to Crimea is, first of all, the infrastructure in the interests of the RF Ministry of Defense, a bridge, an airport, railway and auto road directions, they are being built quite quickly and efficiently ... not already 30 years ago ...

    Nothing has changed in Kerch ...? Lies! The number of cars per capita has grown by an order of magnitude, if not more. In any case, the deserted streets of the 90s were replaced by a stream of sophisticated jeeps and other foreign cars. Instead of rare classic bicycles such as Ukraine, Zaporozhtsev, Zhiguli and Tavriy, the streets are filled with new cars and it can be quite problematic to find a parking near the market. And the roads ... There are no more holes in the city center since the bombing at the end of the war. The streets are covered with smooth asphalt, which, unfortunately, does not help to avoid traffic jams. Where have the old rusty Gigi gone? Unclear. And this is just one stroke of the new time. However, the city certainly needs a radical redesign of the city's transport infrastructure. All the same, it stretches along the coast for 26 km, which is twice the radius of Simferopol. Such a long shoulder requires the creation of highways or a bypass road, which of course is nonsense. Someday, when the city begins to develop correctly and fills the entire peninsula in width and the population increases at least 10 times, i.e. reaches 1,5 million people, then, perhaps, transport lines will be more modern.

    To judge Crimea, one should have visited it in 2014-15. Well, where is the money. I will not say for Crimea, but in Sevastopol people in large numbers are ruling the ball and stealing so shamelessly, our people are only surprised that this is possible. And you can also go to Ukraine, concoct a piece of paper there with a pre-Russian date, and here it is accepted, in large numbers, with a bang. Where is the FSB looking? Uh and a lot of other things that longing for Stalin takes.

    Personally, we liked everything in Kerch, we went with the whole family two years ago. The city itself, yes, not particularly impressed, but they did not look at the Khrushchevs and asphalt to drive. Adzhimushkay, here I highly recommend! Sooo strong place, I walked the rear in the group with a lantern and sobbed, Artyom guide crawled under the crust of everyone, well done. Mithridates is power, Pikapei is beauty, the view of the Kerch Bridge is pride! To run to sniff unpainted posts - so to any Penza / Yalta to wellness. Why talk like that about a city of glorious past, if there really isn't anything real in it yet? And yes, my son wrote a report in the 3rd grade about Kerch, not about Turkey and Egypt, which he had visited three times, not about St. Petersburg, Anapa and Yekaterinburg, but Kerch impressed him most of all ..

    Can you be an evil cop? First of all, what surprised you on the weekend? In the age of the Internet, it is not a problem to google, I always have a weekend schedule at hand when traveling (this is not a force majeure in the form of a cleaning day). Secondly, why plant the territory of the Adzhimushkai quarries? This is a scary place, and besides, the monument simply runs the risk of getting lost in the greenery. On the roads: well, I'm sorry to eat and much worse (go to the Ostashkovo area, a lot of fun is not on an all-terrain vehicle). These are not excuses, but reality. Kerch is now being actively restored, we have to wait, it's just that funding sources for different objects are allocated through different channels, this is not a common boiler. They gave it to Taurida, but not enough for something else. I will not say about the monument on Mithridates, in the summer of 20 g it was renovated. As for Panticapaeum, I hope they will do it as in Chersonesos. And generally not to climb historical stones, this is an element of culture, not the presence of fences. Yeni-Kale ... Are you seriously unable to get to the main entrance? I managed to get there with my topographic cretinism. It's beautiful there! Yes, not like in Pike perch, but have you seen Pike perch until 14g? If not, google it. Two big differences. I hope they will do it here too. And I don't see any problems to travel to memorable places, there is a darkness of information, private guides. I don’t know about Crimea, but I had no problems taking excursions through local history museums, if they didn’t have a rush, of course. And in general, such general shortcomings are typical for many countries (I can tell you about the islands of Greece and Italy, what kind of abandoned roads and dead roads and sights there are).

    The article touched me, much of it is true. But I want to say only about one thing, about the attitude towards visitors. The fact is that the city of Kerch has always been the industrial center of the Crimea. It was a city of fishermen, metallurgists, shipbuilders. But not as a resort, that is, the main population worked in industry, and did not rent out apartments and sold them on the market. And when everything collapsed, people were left "at a broken trough." But in resort towns, where the bulk of people lived and lives at the expense of visitors. Coming to rest in Kerch, you enrich those who rents out housing, feeds in cafes, merchants in the market. Private traders! Not always paying taxes. And Kerchane, having come to the market, to the store and seeing the rise in prices, sitting down on a crowded minibus, do not want to treat the newcomers favorably.

    "And what, in seven years the house can be cleaned?"
    What are you? The residents of Sevastopol had to wait for the head of state to visit in order to remove the garbage from Heroes of Stalingrad Avenue, which remained after the tree trimming the year before last! And here is some kind of Kerch!
