its snow and skiing there's plenty of sun sand and see here as well. this is the longest develops in europe fourteen kilometers of it and in the middle is this lady a white bride. the hopes dreams and beauty of the beach. and it's a stunning place the results of frame by the background of the mountains and on a sunny day the seascapes can rival anything you might find in the greek islands and if you want to see the area in its full glory you just have to jump into a cable car. straight up and. you get

a pretty good view on the way up here but i think i want to go just a little bit higher and also it's an excuse to pick. up here you can find the black seas equivalent of the london although admittedly this is a little more retro. going to the most technologically advanced roy this one safety equipment. there's a big. five minutes to get to the top and if you. managed to cling on for a treat. this is the highest roy on the black sea coast meters above the sea level. discovers incredible. maybe a little bit when the interviewer probably. tourist or to arrive here in april when the season can continue into october. attractions

in the area are good to appeal to the whole family and i wanted to check out one of its newest success stories. people come from all over russia to visit the black sea coast but if you're looking for a different sort of multiculturalism it's probably a pretty good place to start. new flamboyant names here this is simply called old park specially it's not very old it's old but take a walk around and you'll soon get a picture. who needs a foreign holiday when you can come here you got the pyramids of egypt the temples of ancient greece. and even a roman pavilion all in less time than it takes you to a script. architect i would. have opened the post back in two thousand and four with an ambitious plan in mind.

we were out to get together many cultures within the narrow space or east west caucasus russia. these architectural structures are filled with substance as you look around you begin to realize that the culture of humankind is a synthesis of many cultures it embraces the whole period from ancient designs all the way to modern architecture. alexander has areas dedicated to more than ten different cultures and we. paid all respects to zeus and we found ourselves in ancient egypt. it may be a little smaller than the pyramids of giza but it's based on but it's certainly boasting some fine acoustics. some gold roll was listening he can't have been too impressed with all singing as

it probably began to rain. it was a perfect moment lou to head indoors and visit the park's medieval town and there's a bird's eye view of the grounds. here we are james this is our territory that's where. our aim is to build a space where architecture and nature into the harmony where we all want to be. bunce if your fortune has something to do with the docs are probably a pretty good place to start and if you go there early enough they'll be plenty of fishermen setting off for the morning catch. one of the best things to me about. so that's why we're. going to take the place we can collect it down there. sam. will work from the stir. his crew

a muscle and. they've been breeding the tasty mollusks for three years but they're already proving very popular. i can tell you that as far as he is concerned this is a budding market. traditionally people here. and now there's a great demand for seafood not only locally but also in moscow st petersburg and elsewhere there were no shellfish an oyster is in the menu bar the restaurants only local people like to cook shellfish for a very long time. and once they've arrived at the beds his job begins. so they were in the right place. but once everything secure the catch has to be

loaded into the rowboat and that's where the hard work begins. if you know. this probably isn't for you each will pretty much guarantees you a seawall to show on the fingers and plenty of unwelcome guests. little crowds in there as well as going to stop. them soon can be surprisingly hard to find. so this kind of reading program apparent doesn't yield too many oysters they're quite rare so you see we've got tons and tons of mussels but only. hidden among them. like. mine even the needle in the haystack. this still huge to my muscles locally. and there's definitely no shortage of them. so this is going to be one of the big. you have a lightly the c b going to twenty muscles a few invading crabs and fish and of course the press is. it's not often you get to

eat seafood when it's this fresh unfortunately on an oyster boat there's no shortage of experience because. for. so i. may not be the most romantic setting to try one of nature's great effort. you don't get much fresher than this. not to mention extremely tasty. so i have my long journey over want but i'm not sure that even the most generous marine biologist would count oysters all muscles among the small taste of cold screeches swimwear that is intelligent animals pointing. well when you're behind a black sea tough to find. hello to.

say hello to zurich. three beautiful. they've been living in before me here at the dolphinarium for more than ten years. down to a four. but this is probably the best quickest way to make friends i think. this one. is the best way to get. to share their breakfast. with the ladies clamoring for. they were all the fights i've won the. rivalry since.

around two hundred fifty kilos and zurich tips the scales over three hundred but fortunately there's plenty of food for everyone. so the girls sixteen. can you imagine how many of these that is. and that means that he's quite happy to run seems. to attract his attention and then you throw it.

people. have faith. this is the. james. take. and what could possibly imagine.

going to be. experiences. when nothing ever. could do them. and the beast way. but you can. unfortunately like many. in the world. as with let's up but as they say sometimes one man's trash can be another man's treasure or in this case treasure.

what did he rather waste properly in sacks production and some bottles here you can see waists from shoes production just like you was. still in and used sacks seven years ago. gave up her practice is a doctor to become an artist and amar mentalist. recycling is still rare in russia and is a common sight nima has opened. to try and draw attention to the damage the waste is doing to the local area. it's always a pain to see the earth turn into a garbage can i try to collect some of the rubbish but of course my efforts working they mean the trash was not getting smaller many people just don't understand me i don't know how to explain it to them my idea is to make people remember my work and

everything that i have taken care of before their litter i want them to remember my beloved lexie and the fish it will be great if they begin doing such things even better than me i mean or offer to give me a quick lesson in how to make plastic stick that isn't there let's make a fish ok come on we're making a little addition for biggest installation a sculpture that's intended to represent the whole of the black sea the first let's get rid of unnecessary stuff here is the thera mug on take a look it's not clear if it's a fish yet but now we're going to shape it look here is the tail. and now we're going to color it and it will become absolutely fabulous. with. some painting. brought in that's right. yes beautiful i don't affect and no you should shake it a little bit to let the paint spread. about only to let me. let the paint

forward it's my. exactly sure what breed of fish we were creating but it was pretty colorful and once the finishing touches had been added it was ready to take its place in the gallery for what we go james and here is here to make this work if you go now you have your own face like see that's right into the sea find a nice place behind hope she'll have a happy life. amazing to think that you can transform this rubbish into something really rather beautiful and hopefully the people who say it maybe they'll think a little bit more with a chuckle way that next plastic bottle. but taking a look at that sculpture of the black sea reminded me of another thing i don't quite have the time for you. i've been so busy here in the textile mills forgot about my favorite thing to the seaside. and it is up here.

the official tea allocation. i pod touch from the. video on demand. an. apology. question.

but there in the hills there were plenty. this isn't just an ordinary zoo it's a rescue and the retirement center for injured. is enjoying her early morning paul. full report looks after more than sixty different species i met up with head keeper. until he started working here three years ago because i was a hunter but it seems like the animals don't generally crunches. let's go buddy

this is the himalayan band both don't you want to say how long you want to have fun and once he's only ten months old growing like a weed he's a thirty now but when he gets big. he's going to be about a hundred. and i think he's. great i'm having fun and biting everything in his meat. every careful. that's it but. then if you think blues weightily meters friends next door. being baby. with a spate of recent births the zoo now has around three hundred animals and they've set up a nursery for their baby pig cats and why can't we all get along my place. my genes and my series are becoming a delicious treat and just

a few months ago they welcomed one of the world's rarest animals this little is adam a baby. and the son of two confiscated tyga so he really is a little miracle and you can already see. that it's not going to be too long before. he's going to turn into the world's biggest cat a bit of a killer and i'm hoping he's going to be gentle with me gentle with him. here have been rescued from poachers or from circuses but some come from rather more unusual backgrounds. this is grigori he lived with their grandmother in know what i see he was living in a simple flat for a long time is more than ten years old grandmother has brought him here some three years ago she was a very old woman she brought to bear here in a car without any cage just using a leash she cooked

a big delicious cake for him that grandmother is just too old to look after him. just one of us in a bad living in a granny flat now. spare room. but never seemed to have such a bond of trust with so many different creatures it was like being around a real life dr doolittle and hopes that the thousands of visitors who come to the park take a new appreciation of the animals away with them. having survived my visit to the safari park with minor cuts and bruises i figured it was time to visit one of the black seas more sedate tourist attractions then maybe get myself something to eat. one thing you learn quite quickly about the russians is that they love their bread whether it's brown blanc roy it pretty much comes with everything but we just point strangely in the two years i've been travelling around this country i've never seen one of those. it's a replica of

a mill that was grinding flour in this area more than a century ago and with the help of a few modern improvements it's back in business. the history of this company is fairly typical of russia founded in eight hundred ninety five it was nationalized in one thousand eight team. in the one nine hundred thirty s. it was renamed. and wasn't until the early one nine hundred sixty s. . a few years ago the original mill was stripped transported and rebuilt him and the old gears were given a new lease of life. but it really is a timeless bit of engineering. the power and the energy. is then converted down here by these wheels. and this one is part of the original century mechanism still running today.

which. we get. and making it is a really simple process so. you. follow me. here's a receiving bunker. this week here. now the process is already underway plenty of. time for a smoke. ok so i've heard of a ploughman's lunch but i'm guessing this is a. milk. bread. this mill may be an example of the region's recent history but they're all relics.

that date back to antiquity. this is the ancient city of gold the pier was home to thousands of people until it was destroyed in the third century a.d. and it's one of the best preserved examples. of an eighteen city on the recent coast the greeks who settled here named their city after samarian king and its ruins cover around forty hacked. it's still possible to wander through the so is of great houses and you can even discover the citizens favorite tipple. i bet that this would have been one of the most popular places back in the days of the cuz it's the remains of an ancient winery people would have crushed the grapes had the juice then would have come down these forests and into these enormous votes. show you. down here. unfortunately. well we've got now of course it is rain water but back in the day this would have

held the equivalent of thousand bottles. have been long since deserted but the descendants of its greek settlers are still in the area and they still have a passion for the grape. this is russia's wine country around sixty percent of the crop comes from around this area and about to meet the people who make some of the best. these. grapes i believe yes and this is a very important one of you. and his family are almost ready to start making the latest batch of their famous runs. so much depending on the year stretch i will set you back around fifty dollars but the grapes went destined for the. winter and to my father.

oh yes the beginning. his bring in the harvest he likes to have a few friends and the old greek tradition. there was a pretty big fowl of grapes to crush so he seemed to take the plunge. you supposed to get everyone stomping away in a nice uniform rhythm but learning a greek slipping around on fifty kilos of grapes takes some doing. and i was about to get my reward from the ending of. that so i think. we definitely deserve a drink thank you very much. yes this is

a bit. to continue the thing but i want to take a stroll across a number of new regions landmarks before i call my plane back to moscow. when it's this windy even plenty of wine won't keep you warm. my savior's would coast journey his son max who run a t.v. thaws along with him. and off to tackling the dunes it certainly beats walking back to the hotel. it may have been getting chilly but as a born and bred seaside town boy i was sad to be leaving the black sea coast they may not boast the infrastructure of some of the famous minutes of rain in resorts but with months of sunshine relatively low prices and no trouble some of these are issues is easy to see one millions of russians come here for the summer holidays it's a place to relax bring the family and enjoy the warmest blue water that russia has

to offer.
