Massandra palace is one of the most famous landmarks in Yalta.

The Massandra palace has a strange history: Semen Vorontsov, the heir of the famous General Governor of Novorossia, began its construction. The initial design in style of Louis XIII was made by the French architect Bouchar. Later the palatial complex was completed by the Russian architect professor Maximillian Meismacher.

The palace was intended to be a residence of Alexander III and became a kind of a hunter's house for the august family of Nikolai II. For a hundred years of its existence the Massandra palace served as a place for relaxation during mountainous walks, later as a residence for the VIP. It experienced the years of oblivion and at last it was opened as a beautiful museum, displaying its splendour to the most welcome guest-tourists from all over the world, who enjoy romantic scenery and architecture.

Khersonesus is located in the southwest part of Crimea, in a bay, which is currently referred to as Quarantine. Khersonesus gained a large section of the peninsula lying between Quarantine and Sand Bays within a few years of being built. (In Greek "Khersonesus" means peninsula).
