From Karadag to Kinomistechko

From Kara-Dag we went west. First part of our route lied on the coast of Bleak Sea. If you look at the map, you will see, that this is territory without any forest. Only stones and clay are around. Some hills even have no grass on theirs slopes.
But there are some interesting places. First time of our walking along the coast we could see dark shape of Kara-Dag mountains. And some hours later we entered ruins of Kinomistechko. It is tiny town of mould houses, which ware built about five years ago specially for shooting adventure film about middle-ages East.
So here are photos of our walk along the sea, including ones with view of Kara-Dag. And, of course, interesting pictures from Kinomistechko. Some of them:

In Yalta

Our last camp was made near the final point of our travel - Yalta. The slope of the mountain has appeared to be too inclined so we set up our tents just on the forest road. No one went this road until the morning, so we had got quiet night.
In the morning we went to Yalta - one of the most popular cities in the southern coast of Crimean peninsula. Our tourist trip with backpacks and tens was over and we finally could enjoy a simple walk in the center of this beautiful city. We also went to the city quay and saw Black Sea. A few hours later we leaved Yalta by mountain trolleybus (the longest trolleybus line in Europe) and returned to Simferopol.
Here are some photos from the last day of our travel.
