Palace of Alexander III in Massandra
|
An architectural and arts museum has recently been unveiled in the Palace. Designed as an imitation of a romantic castle on the Loire River, the Palace with its bright looks was to reflect and merge harmoniously with the southern nature. |
|
In Massandra abundant ornamentation, details of a Renaissance style and newly born art nouveau style can be found. However, the dominant feature is its baroque style. |
|
The exquisite decoration of the rooms is admired by all. All the architectural works executed on Massandra Palace are noted for their spectacular quality of workmanship and artistic taste. |
|
The palace is also known as Stalin's Dacha. Surrounded by a nice little park with a fountain and set like Versailles, this charming summer palace once received the Russian Imperial family of Romanov. |
|
Your guided visit to the Palace will allow you to admire its beautiful interior, furniture, art pieces and memorabilia of all sorts - photos, documents, letters - all carefully arranged. |
|
Stroll around the lovely palace garden and enjoy the views. |
|
Upon reboarding the motor coach, you will be taken through some of the narrow, winding streets of the new part of the town. This affords you an opportunity to watch the local people going about their daily business. |
