Gazebo of the Winds


The Gazebo of Winds can be seen from the Hurzuf in clear weather. If you stand with your back to the sea, then it is exactly opposite you at the top of the rock Shagan-Kaya ("Falcon Mountain"). Gazebo of the Winds, perhaps, one of the most romantic places in the Crimea. Every year hundreds of people make an offer to their beloved, couples in love often come to this place.


The Gazebo of winds is at an altitude of 1423 meters above sea level at the very edge of the cliff. Going to the edge of the arbor, to the balustrade, you have a magnificent view of Bear Mountain (Ayu-Dag), the Hurzuf, the southern coast of the Crimea and the endless Black Sea. It is here, looking at the sea, you can understand why he is called Black, especially if the sun is closed by clouds, the sea becomes dark blue, in places it is Black. Going to the balustrade, immediately breathtaking: the view from the gazebo is stunning, but the sense of height and the gap that opens before you is breathtaking. The place is full of emotions and a bit of extreme sensations, although you are safe, but the height sensibly tickles your nerves.

The Gazebo of Winds  was built in 1956. It consists of 8 columns with a height of 5.5 meters and a dome covering the columns, the total height of Gazebo winds is 6 meters. The floor in the gazebo is covered with mosaic, which depicts a rose of winds.



Entering the colonnade, the landscapes of Ayu-Dag, Hurzuf, Partenit, southern slopes of the Crimean mountains, as well as the blue sea, which sometimes merges with the sky and the horizon line disappears completely, open to the eyes of the person. On a clear, sunny day, the sea surface can be seen at a distance of 150 kilometers from the coast, and this, you want to note, is almost the middle of the Black Sea.
