Bahchisaraj is a small town about 40 km away from Sevastopol and from the sea cost. Town itself is not very nice and very similar to majority of Soviet villages and towns with poor highways but the center of Bahchisaraj is really amazing place where old blocks and streets lead to beautiful khan Castle-Palace. Now it is impossible to believe that just 200 years ago it was the capital of huge Crimean Tatar Khanate. This is the place of attraction with a number of tourists and visitors.
After passing through castle bridge above the moat and stone defensiv walls you will find Khan's Palace working as museum with a lot of exhibitions. It is made of stone and wood with distinguished architecture in mongolian? style. Builded over 500 years ago palace has numerous fountains and parks, it seems this is the only one tatar palace in Europe that preserved untill now.
You will find a lot of small tatar cafes around with original tatar dishes. To resume - this place is worth to come over 900 km.
