So that you don’t miss anything interesting while relaxing in the New World, we have prepared for you a list of the most interesting attractions. Now the question “What to see in the New World?” will resolve itself. We tried to divide all the attractions according to their accessibility for ordinary tourists (price and ways to get there).
What can you see in the New World without problems? (cheap and close)
1. New World embankment
If you are already vacationing in the New World, then you have definitely already visited the embankment. But if you are just choosing a place for your future vacation, we hasten to please you. The embankment here is surprisingly good. It is shady, there are many comfortable benches, and there are nice (and quite cheap by local standards) restaurants or souvenir shops on every corner. But the most pleasant thing is the fact that the embankment is very green, there are many beautiful exotic plants and flower beds. We have already written in more detail about this before.
2. Chaliapin Grotto (Getting there: 20 minutes on foot. Price: about 100 rubles)
- one of the largest attractions. We dedicated it to him, and here we will only briefly repeat the most important. The grotto itself is very beautiful. At one time, not only was Prince Golitsyn’s wine cellar located here, but opera concerts were also held. Even Emperor Nicholas II rested in the grotto.
To get to the grotto you will have to walk a little along. There is an entrance fee to the trail, but it is inexpensive. It is unlikely that you will be satisfied with just visiting the grotto, so expect a 3-4 hour walk with fantastic scenery around.
Although the grotto is quite large, from above it appears tiny against the background of the surrounding rocks.
Our African friends are no strangers to making money. Photos with them, of course, are paid.
This is what Count Golitsyn's wine cellar looks like. Once upon a time it was filled with the best wines of Crimea and the world.
This is what Chaliapin's grotto looks like if you climb the path a little further.
3. Source of St. Anastasia (Getting there: an hour on foot. Price: free)
Please note: despite the fact that paid excursions to the source are organized, we strongly recommend that you go on a trip on your own. This will make it much more interesting.
A fairly detailed map of the path to the source of St. Anastasia. The one way journey takes about an hour and a half.
On the way to the spring you come across a lot of beautiful landscapes, as if taken from oriental fairy tales.

4. Territories of boarding houses (free)
Almost everything in the New World is very beautiful. They carefully look after their territory and try, whenever possible, to decorate it with unusual buildings or exotic plants. It would be a sin not to take advantage of such an opportunity and not look at such beauty. Moreover, access to most boarding houses is completely free. Here, for example, . It's a pity that we decided to blog late. We have a huge number of fantastic photos, but in them we are in swimsuits...
This is what the houses look like, in one of which we spent a whole week
At almost every step there are beautiful green flower beds and a wide variety of southern plants.
The whole village is very green and beautiful. It is pleasing to the eye.
Sights that require effort to see (cheap, but long to get to)
5. Mount Sokol (Getting there: 3-4 hours on foot. Price: free)
To get to the top, we recommend going past. The tour is free, but be careful. You will have to walk for quite a long time: from 3 to 5 hours, depending on the length of the photo pauses. And there is plenty to photograph: amazingly beautiful landscapes, breathtaking bird's-eye views, rare plants, animals and birds.

One of the most beautiful walks in the vicinity of the New World. You can walk along the path winding among the high cliffs along the sea coast. Beautiful landscapes that will take your breath away can be found here at almost every step. We invite you to look at our photos:

Attractions and excursions that will cost you money
7. New World Winery (Getting there: 10 minutes on foot. Price: from 300 rubles)
- one of the oldest in Crimea. For example, this particular wine was served at the coronation of Nicholas II, and the emperor himself more than once vacationed with Prince Golitsyn in And this is what the factory fence looks like.
Inside the plant you can see a whole bottle of bottles, no matter how strange it may sound.
Here is an example of a cozy restaurant. The bar has mostly local wine.
8. The city of Sudak (Getting there: by boat or by bus. Price: pay the fare)
- the largest city closest to the New World. Here you can see the Genoese fortress and local architecture. If you prefer a different style of relaxation, the local water park and sandy beaches are at your service. We wrote about Sudak, and therefore we will not repeat it here.
9. Excursion to the cities of Crimea (high prices)
In principle, from the New World you can go to see almost any major city in Crimea. Paid excursions have been organized and debugged for quite some time. In almost every boarding house you will find excursion programs and their prices, which, by the way, are quite high. If you decide to go on your own by public transport, there are no problems here either. There is a small bus station in the city.
10. Caves in Crimea (Getting there: 3-4 hours by bus. Prices: high)
We decided to write about the caves separately. It's amazingly beautiful inside. You can look at centuries-old stalactites and stalagmites, walk over underground rivers (special bridges are equipped) and much more.
Despite the fact that there are almost 100 caves in Crimea, the most famous is Marble. Please note that the caves are very cold. Take it with you warm clothes.
Tsar's Bay or simply Tsar's Beach is today one of the favorite places in the New World. This is one of the most beautiful places in the mountainous Sudak. Blue Bay received this name because back in 1912, it was on this seashore that the Russian emperor rested.
Novy Svet is an ideal place for a holiday, both with family and alone. If during your vacation you prefer to admire nature rather than go out at night in clubs, then 2 weeks of relaxation in this bay will be ideal for you. However, it is worth taking care of your vacation spot in advance. This is due to the fact that the village is small, but there are quite a lot of tourists wanting to relax.
In Crimea there are many corners that amaze with the beauty of nature and monuments of culture and history. The Golitsyn trail in the New World occupies a place of honor among them. The path running in the rocks themselves bears the name of Prince Golitsyn, by whose decree....
The history of the New World house-museum in Sudak is approaching a century and a half. The museum itself was founded in the centenary year of the Golitsyn plant and is located on the prince’s huge secular estate, not far from the village of Novy Svet, which gave its name to the plant itself and, subsequently, to the museum. The house has survived to this day in its unchanged form, only being slightly adapted for museum display.
Not far from the city of Sudak, between the villages of Novy Svet and Seseloye, there is an amazing structure - the Taurus Staircase. By the most conservative standards, it is about three thousand years old. The Taurians are ancient tribes that inhabited the Crimean gorges, cruel robbers who built entire cave cities with their own infrastructure, among which is preserved to this day...
Rumor has it that at the bottom of the sea lie untold riches hidden by pirates in the 12th century. Smugglers and adventurers were hiding from justice in this bay. Here the robbers waited for their victims - trade caravans traveling by sea. The terrain made it possible to keep traders in the dark about the pirate plans until the last moment...
Emperor Nicholas II, at the invitation of Prince Golitsyn, rested in the Crimean Blue Bay. Subsequently, the coast of the bay became known as Tsarskoe Beach. The coast is unique and picturesque; it has been a botanical reserve since the early 70s. You can see relict pine trees, tree-like juniper and other types of unusual vegetation of the Mediterranean. Staying here is extremely beneficial thanks to the healing air, saturated with the aroma of resin.
The nudist beach is located in the New World bay, the northern part of the resort village. You need to walk along the shore of the New World Bay or go down the road through difficult, rugged mountainous terrain. The landmark is the northern part of the bay. A small wild beach, in a cozy bay protected from the waves. The covering is pebbles and boulders.
The Paradise estate (now Novy Svet) was purchased by Prince Golitsyn in 1878 from Prince Kherkheulidzev. The New World received its name after Tsar Nicholas II visited the estate in 1912. In this village, in the vicinity of Sudak, the Palace of Prince Golitsyn is majestically located.
On the Crimean peninsula you can find hundreds of places where you can learn the secrets of nature and admire the landscapes. On the southeastern coast, near the seashore, there is Mount Khoba-Kaya. This place attracted researchers, speleologists and simply lovers of untouched nature.
The coast of the Crimean peninsula is indented by numerous capes and bays. Many of them have bizarre shapes and resemble various animals, reptiles, birds, insects and other fauna. On the eastern coast of Crimea lives an ancient fossilized lizard that drinks water from the waters of the Black Sea. Cape Kapchik has this shape.
On the eastern coast of Crimea there is an inconspicuous cave called “Chaliapin’s Grotto”. She was given this name after a performance by a great classical music performer in a cave. For a concert to take place here, a lot of time had passed since its opening by Prince Golitsyn, who loved to walk around the surrounding places and discover something new. For the prince himself, this place was the best repository for ripening wines.

Sights of the New World and surrounding areas 2019
There are two places that you can’t help but visit when visiting the New World, because these are its calling cards.
- The Golitsyn trail is located on the slope of Mount Koba-Kaya, cut down by Turkish workers at the beginning of the 20th century specifically for the arrival of Emperor Nicholas II in Crimea. This road, about 3 km long, starts from the shore of the Green Lagoon at the foot of Mount Eagle, then runs over the Blue Bay, or as it is also called Razboinichya, in which, according to legend, pirates hid, and ends at Cape Kapchik, where it turns into the Juniper Grove. Along the route along the Golitsyn trail, there are several observation platforms that offer stunning views of the bays and the village itself.
- Golitsyn's Grotto, also known as Chaliapin's Grotto, is a very mysterious, atmospheric place. Not so long ago, inscriptions from the Middle Ages were visible on its walls, but in the 20th century, Prince Golitsyn equipped this small cave for storing wine. Having passed through the semicircular arch at the far wall, you can find yourself in a tunnel that led straight to the cellars of the champagne wine factory. The grotto received its other name due to the arrival of the famous singer Fyodor Chaliapin to the New World. Knowing the excellent acoustics of the grotto, the owner asked Chaliapin to give a small concert in the grotto, and when the maestro began to sing, the sound of his voice cracked the glass. Even today, concerts are sometimes held in the grotto.
- Probably the largest number of photographs of the New World were taken in a juniper grove, and it is not surprising, because here every tree is a masterpiece! A relict juniper grove located in a botanical reserve is the pride of the village. The magnificent aroma of these trees, mixed with the sea breeze, is very beneficial for health, it gives a healing effect, helping people suffering from bronchitis and lung diseases. And of course, juniper growing against the backdrop of a dazzlingly beautiful sea coast creates an incredible landscape for your photos!
