Lastochkino Gnezdo
This incredibly beautiful toy-town building, which stands on the very edge of a 40-meter cliff, is a favorite subject of Crimean postcards. Commissioned by the German Baron von Steinheil, it was designed and built by the Ukranian architect Leonid Sherwood between 1911 and 1912 in the style of a medieval castle. It overlooks the Black Sea and is situated near the remains of an ancient Roman fortress dating from the 1st to 3rd century AD. It's now operated as a tourist restaurant.
