Chersonese of Taurida
Chersonese Taurian is an ancient Greek city that is located on the Heraklion peninsula of the Crimea.
At one time Chersonesos played an important strategic, political, economic role in the Northern Black Sea region. Today, from that once majestic city remained a ruin, as a reminder to the younger generation of the former glory of the local sunny land.
Chersonesos became not only the 7th miracle of Ukraine, it is also listed as a world cultural heritage by UNESCO. Prior to the occupation of the Crimea by Russia, Chersonesos was in good condition, but as soon as the Russian region was occupied by the Russians, the situation worsened considerably.
It remains to be hoped that until the time when Crimea will return to Ukraine, Tauric Chersonesus will not disappear.
