In 7 hours you can visit the most interesting places of interest in Sevastopolarea. I suggest the visits to
— Bakhchisarai, — «the city in the garden» located in 35 km to the North from Sevastopol- to visit the former residence of Crimean Khans who ruled here in the 15th-18th centuries. You'll see Divan Hall, Falcon Tower, Great Khan Mosque, the harem buildings, the Fountain Patio with Fountain of Tears glorified in poetic lines of Alexander Pushkin.
In Bahkchisaray you'll continue to Assumption cave Monastery located in the mountainside and considered to be one of the most ancient Crimean cave monasteries. Its foundation was connected with the iconoclasm in Byzantium.
Lunch at Tatar cafe is recommended (Crimean Tatar cuisine).
In Balaklava (12 km from Sevastopol downtown) we'll visit the former Soviet top-secret underground military complex (submarine pen) located in one of the rocks.
When back toSevastopol you'll visit the world-famous Panorama «The Defense of Sevastopol, 1854 — 1855», which is the masterpiece of battle painting.
