The magnificent bay in the embrace of the volcano Karadag, the mountains of Uzup-Syrt and the range of Kiik Atlama are the most important symbols of the resort city and priceless natural places of interest. Resting in Koktebel, it is necessary to visit the house of Maximilian Voloshin, in which he spent the best creative years of his life. Here you can see the magnificent watercolors of the poet and his friend, the artist Bogaevsky. It is also interesting to visit the top of the Kuchuk-Yenishar Mountain, where the poet is buried.
