Foros Park in Yalta

Foros Park was founded in the XIX century. But initially it was just a desert area with one fountain. In 1885, the new owner of these lands, merchant Alexander Kuznetsov, decided to completely transform the park and after 5-6 years he achieved what he wanted, spending a huge amount of money on it. A large number of rare plants that do not grow in this area, but are able to adapt, were brought to the park.

The area of the current park is 70 hectares, of which 30 are allocated for cultural plantations, and the remaining 40 are a large forest park zone. The park has more than 350 species of trees and shrubs. Of particular interest is the paradise - six lakes located at different levels are connected to each other by a small duct. The park is declared a monument of landscape architecture and is protected by law.
