Lenin embankment is the central promenade of Yalta, one of the oldest streets in the city. The embankment is surrounded by palm trees. There are  numerous attractions, bars, cafes and restaurants. The architecture of the quay is a variety of styles. Yalta embankment is  paved with red granite and polychrome light gray porphyries. The quay was paved with slabs of various igneous rocks in 2002-2004. Numerous objects that presented famous pre-revolutionary Yalta were restored.

In 1837, poet, V.A. Zhukovsky found on Yalta quay only one building, the customs. Until 1886 Yalta Quay was a common foreshore. The embankment was built by the project of architects AL Berthier-Garde and NM Shevtsova. It was raised, reinforced with stone blocks and surrounded by a metal railing that created the illusion of the spacecraft. In order to protect the embankment of storms in 1961 it was made a two-step.

Yalta QuayBuildings of the Main Post Office, exhibition hall of the Union of Artists, the International Marine Club, the restaurant “McDonald’s” and amusement rides are located on Yalta Promenade. There is also a favorite meeting place for young people. It is monument of Lenin sheltered by palm trees.

The western part of Yalta quay is known for building of Oreanda hotel, schooner-cafe “Hispaniola” (built for the film shooting) and flying design of “Golden Fleece” café in the form of ancient Greek ship. There also stands Isadora sycamore with a huge ball-shaped crown, which is not less than 500 years old. Famous American dancer had dates with poet Sergei Yesenin under this magnificent tree.

Ukraine-Russia tension

The port of Sevastopol is a major naval base and has been home to the Black Sea Fleet since Soviet times. Following the collapse of the USSR, the fleet was divided up between Russia and Ukraine.

”"The continuing presence of the Russian fleet in Sevastopol has been a focus of tension between Russia and Ukraine. In 2008, Ukraine – then under the pro-Western President Viktor Yuschenko – demanded that Moscow not use the Black Sea Fleet during the its conflict with Georgia.

Both countries had agreed to allow the Russian fleet to stay until 2017, but after the election of the pro-Russian Viktor Yanukovych as president in 2010, Ukraine agreed to extend the lease by 25 years beyond 2017, in return for cheaper Russian gas.

There was also friction over plans – later scrapped by Mr Yanukovych – by Mr Yushchenko to strengthen ties with Nato. In 2006, ethnic Russians took to the streets to disrupt preparations for Nato-led naval exercises off Crimea.

There is a rumbling border dispute between Moscow and Kiev in the Kerch Strait. Tensions rose sharply in late 2003 after Russia started building a causeway between the Russian coast and the island of Tuzla, just off Crimea.

Regions and territories: Crimea

The Republic of Crimea, a part of Ukraine, lies on a peninsula stretching out from the south of Ukraine between the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. It is separated from Russia to the east by the narrow Kerch Strait.

The Russian Tsars and Soviet elite spent summers on its subtropical southern shores which still attract holidaymakers and, latterly, wealthy property developers.

Crimea was annexed by the Russian Empire during the reign of Catherine The Great in 1783 and remained part of Russia until 1954 when it was transferred to Ukraine under the then Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev.

Ethnic Russians still make up the bulk of the population, Ukrainians under a quarter and the Muslim Crimean Tatars about 12%.

Yalta: The port city is a mecca for tourists

For centuries under Greek and Roman influence, Crimea in 1443 became the centre of a Tatar Khanate, which later became an Ottoman vassal state.

Rival imperial ambitions in the mid 19th century led to the Crimean War when Britain and France, suspicious of Russian ambitions in the Balkans as the Ottoman Empire declined, sent troops.

Ukraine seeks better ties with EU, Yanukovych says

Integration with the European Union is a priority for Ukraine, the country's new president, Viktor Yanukovych, says.

Mr Yanukovych is seen as closer to Russia than his predecessor Viktor Yushchenko was - yet his first foreign visit as head of state is to Brussels."European integration is a key priority," he said after talks with EU leaders on Monday.Mr Yanukovych said the talks focused on a planned association deal with the EU that would allow free trade.His defeated rival, Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, now faces a vote of no-confidence on Wednesday in the Ukrainian parliament.She was an Orange Revolution ally of Mr Yushchenko, the former president whose pro-Western stance, including the ambition to join the EU and Nato, angered Moscow.

Mr Yanukovych pledged to "enhance" relations with Russia to ensure reliable deliveries of Russian gas to the EU via Ukraine. A dispute with Russia over gas prices disrupted supplies to the EU in January 2009.The BBC's James Rodgers - a former Moscow correspondent - says Russia sees in Mr Yanukovych a friendlier partner than Mr Yushchenko, but its reaction to his victory has been quiet, not triumphalist.Ukraine's foreign policy is no longer a simple question of East or West, our correspondent says. Europe also wants Ukraine and Russia to get on well.Mr Yanukovych, who was sworn in as president last week, will head to Moscow on Friday.Reviving the struggling Ukrainian economy is another big challenge that lies ahead of him.

The International Monetary Fund has suspended part of a $16.4bn (£10.8bn) loan for Ukraine, demanding that the government implement economic reforms.

Ukraine’s parliament votes to abandon Nato ambitions

The Ukrainian parliament has approved a bill that effectively rejects any ambition to join Nato.The law, submitted by President Viktor Yanukovych, cements Ukraine’s status as a military non-aligned country – though it will co-operate with Nato.President Yanukovych was elected earlier this year, vowing to end Ukraine’s Nato membership ambitions and mend relations with Russia.His predecessor, Viktor Yushchenko, had pursued a pro-Western foreign policy.Under him, relations with Moscow had declined dramatically, with the Kremlin refusing to talk to him.

Since his February inauguration, Mr Yanukovych has wasted no time in re-shaping Ukraine’s foreign policy in a more Moscow-friendly way, the BBC’s David Stern in Kiev says.In April, he agreed to extend the lease allowing Russia’s Black Sea fleet to be stationed in the southern port of Sevastopol by 25 years in return for cheaper gas.An extension of the lease, due to expire in 2017, had been opposed by Mr Yushchenko.Moscow had made known its opposition to Ukraine’s plans to join Nato, and opinion polls indicate the majority of Ukrainians opposed Nato membership too, our correspondent reports.

The new bill bars Ukraine’s membership in any military bloc, but allows for co-operation with alliances such as Nato.”The main element of predictability and consistency in Ukraine’s foreign policy is its non-aligned status,” Prime Minister Mykola Azarov said as he submitted the bill.However, the new law will not affect Ukraine’s political and economic integration with Europe.Joining the European Union remains a priority, Mr Azarov said.

Mass protests, a revolt by state media against government controls and the fracturing of the governing coalition brought in European-Union mediation and a re-run of the election.

A fragile alliance of anti-Kuchma forces, from pro-Western democrats, socialists, business interests and nationalists united behind opposition leader and former prime minister Viktor Yushchenko, who won the presidency.

Mr Yushchenko secured the transparency of the democratic process, the rule of law and media freedom, but his efforts to move towards Nato and EU membership made slow progress in the face of Western reluctance to antagonise a resurgent Russia and a divided public opinion in Ukraine itself.

Rivalry with his prime minister, Yuliya Tymoshenko, soured into open antagonism, and neither proved able to cope with the worldwide economic downturn after 2008.

Although trade with EU countries now exceeds that with Russia, Moscow is the largest individual trading partner. Ukraine depends on Russia for its gas supplies and forms an important part of the pipeline transit route for Russian gas exports to Europe.

Ukraine gained independence after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and has since veered between seeking closer integration with Western Europe and reconciliation with Russia, which supplies most of the country’s energy.

Europe’s second largest country, Ukraine is a land of wide, fertile agricultural plains, with large pockets of heavy industry in the east.

While Ukraine and Russia share common historical origins, the west of the country has close ties with its European neighbours, particularly Poland, and Ukrainian nationalist sentiment is strongest there.
