The old botanical park consists of an upper and lower park, connected by an underground passage. You can buy a ticket either to both sides for 350 rubles, or only to the small lower one. The upper area is large and interesting. There are many beautiful old park buildings, a suspension bridge and a replica of a dolmen, a pen with ostriches and peacocks, a parrot, an artificial low waterfall with a cave, and a sakura garden. Lots of flower beds with tulips. A pleasant place for leisurely walks. The lower park is smaller in area, with lakes in which swans, ducks and pelicans swim. There is a small bamboo grove. You can get around in 15-20 minutes of leisurely pace. Measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19: thermometry at the entrance, the requirement to maintain social distance, wear a mask.

We've visited the mountain cluster by cable car and the ride was so adventurous and great. Don't miss this cable car ride if you visit Krasnaya Poliyana. Plus while you are going up to the mountains you'll see a breathtaking Panasonic view of Caucasus mountains.

9. The Old Park Cultural Center
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 632 reviews
The Staryi Park is the first and only architectural park on the Black Sea coast. The main epochs of the global culture and aesthetics are represented here on the area of more than a hectare: the Ancient Greece, Ancient Egypt, Middle Ages and Renaissance, Eastern and Orthodox culture, the culture of the Caucasian. It forms a unique effect of the Unity: different “time points” and architectural styles coexist and complement each other in one green space, making up the Unity. Egyptian Sphinx, a Pharaoh’s guard; an obelisk proving that the royal power is the will of heaven; a pyramid full of the spirit of the ancient civilization... Author and creator of the cultural center-Aleksey Aleksandrovich Ivanovich. We invite you to the journey in the Staryi Park!
