Russia🇷🇺, Crimea, Vorontsov Palace

Vorontsov Palace in Alupka is rightfully considered one of the pearls of the peninsula. The elegant and, at the same time, majestic building is located at the foot of Ai-Petri Mountain. It is surrounded by a unique park complex, and an amazing view of the Black Sea opens from the front staircase.

The palace complex organically fits into the surrounding landscape due to the fact that its location corresponds to the mountainous terrain. That is why the palace has such an original image. The Vorontsov Palace in Crimea and the park adjacent to it often became a film set. At least 17 films have been recognized by the general public.

In the appearance of the building, elements of various eras and a successful combination of architectural styles are visible — strict English, with a direction towards Neo-Gothic, and lush oriental, neo-Moorish.

During the Yalta Conference (February 1945), the palace temporarily turned into the residence of W. Churchill and his entourage.
