Karaite's Kenasi in Evpatoria

Hello guests of Traveltocrimea!

As the high season coming soon to Crimean peninsula, it is getting hotter day by day. Lots of tourists are gathering at Simferopol’s airport, railway station, bus stations. I decided to write some phrases in Russian. As most of the citizens of Crimea, and of course, capital of Crimea – Simferopol, speak Russian, the knowledge of some phrases in Russian can be very useful.

I ‘ve wrote also translation to English as mostly of the Crimean tourists speak English. Let’s start to learn useful phrases in Russian! More »

This year Yalta will enjoy significant event Yalra Rally 2011. Be aware of the rally rules in Yalta Rally 2011.

Special stages (SS) are the competitive sections of a stage rally event where the goal is to cover a stretch of closed road in the shortest time. On a special stage cars are set off individually at set intervals to reduce the chances of being impeded by other competitors.

One hour before the scheduled start of the first crew (starting number 1) the Road Police car passes through the SS with the blue shimmering light and voice signal, informing rally safety services and the spectators about prohibition to appear on the SS. After the Road Police car there could pass Safety Officers cars (SS steward, timekeeper, ASN safety delegate, Clerk Of the Course) with red pass sticker in right up of the car with logo of the held rally.

15 minutes before the start of the first crew “zero car” starts with a side number “000″. “Zero” cars are safety cars of the rally. Their main task is final verification of SS readiness for the start of the sports cars. On the “zero” cars roofs there is a yellow shimmering light. “Zero” cars number is limited to five, but could be less due to the technical reasons. The passing “zero” car imposes prohibition of passage of any cars, regardless status and passes shown. More »

Most travel guides send you straight through Simferopol to the Crimean coast, since its reputation is that of a transit town rather than a cultural hotspot. However, this summarised view doesn’t factor in the wealth of Soviet remnants and relics as well as other more locally specificities that can make this trip to Simferopol a sort of cultural experience to foreigners.

The reason for a perceived absence of cultural activities might also have to do with the lack of English language information on these activities (even in local languages one has to search), as well as the apparent dormancy during summer months due to the temporary emigration of locals to any of the numerous places the Crimean peninsula offers for rest. Weekend trips in Crimea are feasible thanks to the short distances (most places can be reached within 2-3hs travel maximum) and Simferopoleans take advantage of this, especially in the seasons of enjoyable weather – which in Crimea after all lasts more than half a year, from April to November!
