Information about Sudak, Crimea, UKraine
Crimea consists of several different areas and each one has it's special kind of nature and landscape. Sudak is located in Eastern Crimea and this area is very different from everything you could see near by Yalta, Bahchisaray or Sevastopol.

Genova's people built a big fortres where Sudak started from. They called it Surozh and you will certanly will hear this word when you'll take excursion to the fortress. There are not many sights in Sudak, but the Genova's fortress is a thing you must to see.
There is old German church near the fortress which uses as an exibition hall now. A small German community of Sudak uses this church for their holidays. A narrow and winding but extremely beautiful road goes from Sudak to a small village called Novi Svet. There is a mountain named Alchak which you'll see on the left side if you'll stay in front of sea. Alchak could be a nice walk-way at night, nice view to Meganom cape from the top of this mountain.
There are many restaurants, cafes and bars in Sudak, but most of them open just in Summer time. But it's not a problem to find a good place for lunch or dinner in Winter too.
