On the wine road

You can go to a nearby hotel in the morning, but not for accommodation. Hotel "Wings of Abrau" is a little piece of France on Lake Abrau. It is made in the Chateau style, a kind of French castle with iron knights, building in the form of a castle, retro cars and big swings. Be sure to take atmospheric shots for Instagram, look at the panorama of Lake Abrau from above and swing on the swings.

We drive further along the Abrau outskirts. On the serpentine road you will find an observation platform with panoramic views of the lake. A little further is another lake - Small Liman. The lake is small, but worth your attention. There are great views from the rocks to the Black Sea, and below is Abrau Beach.

On the way back, when you leave Abrau-Dyurso, be sure to turn to the Vineyard House. There are no signs and the road is unpaved, but it's only a few meters from the turnoff of the main road. There are not many tourists here, because this house is rented for festivities. However, you can take a walk in Abrau-Dyurso vineyards and make a lot of atmospheric shots here. This is a real little Tuscany!

You're going on the wine road, aren't you? So, on your way to Gelendzhik, stop by another winery - Chateau Pino. It is located in the most beautiful place, next to Myskhako and Novorossiysk. This complex is unique gravity winery, snail farm, panoramic views of the bay of Novorossiysk and the mountains. You can go on an excursion with a tasting and a visit to the winery and snail farm, or taste the wine with a delicacy in the restaurant.

And here you are in Gelendzhik! At the entrance to the city turn to Andreyevsky park - the most beautiful park of the southern resort with flowering trees, a Japanese garden, a pond with turtles and a large Andreyevsky church.

Start your acquaintance with this southern town from its promenade. Come to this fountain and from there head to the right. It is this part of the promenade that has recently been renovated and given a new modern look. A beautiful promenade with numerous pine trees, squirrels on them, flowerbeds, fountains, benches and stylish restaurants. On the way you will see a musical fountain from the sea and a floating glass viewing platform.

Walk up to the Mermaid and Cat Scientist sculpture, which is right under a pine tree, on the promenade, and take a couple of pictures.

For lunch stop by the Ukrainian Yard. There is a good kitchen with an extensive menu. The interior and dishes are in the national style. Nourishing and perfect for lunch.

After lunch you can go to the other side of the embankment: to Cape Thick. There are already other views of the sea, a pine grove and a beautiful park area for strolling along the promenade. You can go down to the Gardens of the Sea beach and spend time there.

In the evening, go back to the new promenade to the sea fountain. Just in time for the evening show of the singing fountain. Come to the glass viewing platform to watch it.

For dinner, go to the famous chain restaurant, Cheesecake Factory. It's just around the corner. Delicious cuisine, many types of cheese and a stylish interior are the perfect end to a gastronomic trip.

A busy day comes to an end and tomorrow you have one last, no less interesting day ahead of you.
