The Golden Gate
Coastal arched rock near the Kara-Dag volcanic massif in the Crimea, on the shore of the Black Sea
Description:
The rock, which is an arch located in part of the Kara-Dag mountain range and has a natural origin, is called the Golden Gate.
It is located between the villages of Resort and Koktebel, in the urban district of Feodosia.
The rock got its name because of the sunny color that appears on a weathery day. To observe beauty, you need to choose a special time. The arch is covered with yellow lichens, organizing a bright performance. The shape of the mountain is shaped by years of wind and water.
Visiting the rock is possible only with representatives of tourist excursions. The territory belongs to a protected area, therefore, it is necessary to escort employees of a state institution.
The Golden Gate can also be seen from the water. Such trips are organized by the reserve itself.
