View of Ayu-Dag

Mount Ayu-Dag (570 m) - Bear - mountain. This is one of the symbols of Crimea on the Black Sea. The legend speaks. Tired of long wanderings, the bear leaned down to the sea to drink water. He drank greedily for a long time, and now, at the behest of the sea god, he froze, turned to stone and turned into a huge mountain. And the old bear lies on the shore for a thousand years. His mighty body turned to stone. Powerful sides turned into steep abysses, a high back became the top of a mountain reaching the clouds, the head became a sharp rock, thick wool turned into a dense forest. The old leader-bear became the Bear Mountain.
