A bit of history


Before the revolution of 1917, the Crimean Peninsula was part of the Tauridic province, 5 out of 8 counties were located on it: Evpatoria, Perekopsky, Simferopol, Feodosia and Yalta, as well as 2 Graduals - Kerch-Yenikali and Sevastopol.

In the period from the end of 1917 to the end of 1920, Crimea moved "from hand to hand" (Muslims, "Red", Germans, Ukrainians, again "red", "white", and again "red"). After the final establishment of Soviet power, 2 new counties were formed in Crimea - Sevastopol (December 15, 1920) and Kerch (December 25, 1920).

On January 8, 1921, the division of counties on parish was canceled. Instead, a system of county was created - the area. In Janka (formerly Perekop), Armenian and Dzhankiy districts were formed; in Kerch - Kerch and Petrovsky; in Sevastopol - Sevastopol and Bakhchisaray; in Simferopol - Biyuk-Onlarsky, Karasubazar, Sarabusesky and Simferopol; in Feodosian - Ichkinsky, Old Crimean, Sudak and Feodosia; In Yalta - Alushta and Yalta.
Crimean ASSR

On October 18, 1921, the Decree of the Central Bank and SNK RSFSR, the Tauride province of the RSFSR was transformed into the Crimean ASSRA, which delivered 7 districts (former counties), which, in turn, were divided into 20 districts.

In November 1923, the districts were abolished and 15 districts were created instead: Ak-Moody, Alushta, Armenian, Bakhchisaray, Dzhanki, Evpatoria, Kerch, Karasubazar, Sarabusesky, Sevastopol, Simferopol, Old-Crimean, Sudaksky, Feodosia and Yalta. However, already in 1924, Ak-Moody, Alushta, Armenian, Sarabuses and Old Crimean districts were abolished.

October 15, 1930, instead of 10 districts, 16: Ak-Moody, Alushta, Balaklava, Bakhchisarai, Biyuk-Onlarsky, Janka, Evpatoria, Ishunsky, Karasubazar, Leninsky, Seitler, Simferopol, Old Crimean, Sudaksky, Feodosia and Yaltinsky were created. Kerch, Sevastopol, Simferopol and Feodosia were in republican submission.

In 1935, 10 new districts were formed: Ak-Sheikh, Ichkinsky, Kirovsky, Kolay, Kuibyshevsky, Larindorf, Mayak Sali, Saki, Telmansky and Frajdorf. Theodosi district was abolished. In 1937, Zui district was formed.

Some areas had a national status: Balaklava, Kuibyshevsky, Bakhchisarai, Yalta, Alushta, Sudaksky - Crimean Tatar, Frajdorf and Larindorf - Jewish, Bureuk-Onlarsky and Telmansky - German, Ishunsky (later Krasnoperekopsky) - Ukrainian. By the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, all areas lost national status (in 1938 - German, in 1939 - Jewish, then all the others).

On the map, Crimean Tatar districts are highlighted by turquoise, Jewish - blue, German - orange, Ukrainian - yellow, mixed areas - Pink.

On December 14, 1944, 11 areas of Crimea were renamed: Ak-Moody - in Black Sea, Ak-Sheikh - in Razzolnensky, Biyuk-Onlarsky - in Oktyabrsky, Ichkinsky - to Soviet, Karasubazar - in Belogorsky, Kolaysky - in Azov, Larindorf - in Pervomaysky , Mayak Salinsky - to Primorsky, Seitler - to Nizhnegorsky, Telmansky - to Krasnogvardeysky, Frajdorf - to Novoselovsky.

On June 30, 1945, the Crimean ASSR was transformed into the Crimean Region. In addition to 26 areas, it consists of 6 cities of regional subordination: Evpatoria, Kerch, Sevastopol, Simferopol, Feodosia and Yalta.

In 1948, Sevastopol was derived from the composition of the Crimean Region in direct submission of the RSFSR. In the same year, the Yalta district was abolished. In 1953, Novoselovsky district was abolished, in 1957-1959 - Balaklava, Zui and Old Crimean regions. The city of Dzhanka moved to regional submission.

On December 30, 1962, Azov, Kirovsky, Kuibyshevsky, Oktyabrsky, Pervomaisky, Primorsky, Razzolnensky, Saki, Simferopol, Soviet and Sudaksky districts were abolished. The remaining 10 districts (Alushta, Bakhchisarai, Belogorsky, Dzhanki, Evpatoria, Krasnogvardeysky, Krasnoperekopsky, Leninsky, Nizhnegorsky and Chernomorsky) were transformed into rural areas. In 1963, the Saki district was created instead of the Evpatoria district. In 1964, an Alushta district was abolished, and Alushta was transformed into the city of regional subordination.

On January 4, 1965, rural areas were transformed into areas. Kirovsky, Razzolnensky and Simferopol districts were also restored. In 1966, Pervomaysky and Soviet districts were created. In 1979, Saki received the status of the city of regional subordination. In the same year, a court district was formed.

After 1991
In 1993, Armenian received the status of the city of republican subordination.

After 2014.
In 2014, the territories with settlements subordinate to the city's councils of republican subordination were the statuses of municipalities as urban districts.

Detailed tourist map of Crimea

Gathered in the tour campaign on the Crimea? Then this card is best suited. There is an alphabetical list of all settlements with search for squares cards.

The uniqueness of the Crimean Peninsula partly consists in its unique climate. Although the peninsula and does not have large sizes, the climatic zones here have a wide variety. Surprisingly, with the Peninsula area in 27 thousand square kilometers, there are three climatic macroregion. It does not consider that the subregiono is numbered here until 20! The secret of this phenomenon, in combination of various embossed formations, the fact that the peninsula is washed with two seas, the presence of bays, and also by the fact that the boundaries of it are squeezed by high-altitude mountains. Basically, climatic zones are divided into three main relief parts of the peninsula - steppe, mountain, and southern promenade.

The peculiarity of the region is the presence of areas where in the winter it is especially warm. At the same time, the phenomenal is that if, for example, in Yalta and Melitopol in the summer, the temperature variation is only 1 degree, the temperature difference can reach 11 degrees! It is just explained by the landscape, the Crimean Mountains in this case protect Yalta from the mainland winds. The warmer, of course, on the southern shore of Crimea, here soft weather is due to the proximity of the sea. The most severe, in terms of cold, are the Crimean mountains, whose vertices even remain cold in the summer. The most warm place in Crimea is Mishor. The average temperature in January here is +4.4 degrees, and the average annual almost 14 degrees of heat. Thus, the Crimea remains an attractive place to rest tourists even in winter, go here on Christmas holidays, or in winter holidays. Map of the Crimea:

Crimean mountains - silent giants that store secrets of history

The mountains divide the Crimean peninsula into two parts: most - steppe, and actually - the mountain part. The mountains are stretched from the northeast to the southwestern part of the peninsula, from Sevastopol to Feodosia, forming three parallel mountain ridges, which in turn are separated by beautiful green plains. The length of the mountains is almost 200 kilometers, the width is approximately 50 kilometers. The main ridge has the greatest altitude of the mountains, it includes such giants like a novel-kosh, with a height of more than one and a half kilometers, the chatyrock, the height of which is 1525 meters, (which is only 20 meters less than the height of the Mount Roman-Kos), and Ai-Petri whose height is 1231 meters. The southern slopes of the main ridge are cool, while the northern - gentle.

The peaks of the Crimean Mountains without a forest form a plateau, which is called "Yaylas". With the Turkic word "YaL" translates as "summer pasture". Yayylas combine the properties of mountains and plains, they are connected by narrow ridges with mountain passes. Since ancient times, the paths from the Crimean steppe went to the southern shore.

For centuries, they were blocked by rainwater over the centuries, the streams of which were made by the mountains with numerous strokes, forming beautiful caves, mines and wells.

In the main grocery is internal ridge. It is significantly lower, the highest point of the inner ridge is Mount Kubalich, its height is less than 750 meters. Internal ridge extends from Mekenziev mountains to Mount Agamny. The length of this ridge is 125 kilometers.

The third row of the Crimean Mountains is called Northern Grocery. This mountain range is the lowest, its height reaches only 340 meters. This ridge is also called foothill. The southern slopes of northern ridge ridges, while the northern - gentle, smoothly turning into the plains. The Crimean Mountains are a great place for mountain tourism, pedestrian sports, climbing. The established infrastructure allows you to organize an integrated, full-fledged rest, health care.

Steppes of Crimea - Fertile fields and mud volcanoes. If the mountains are located just 20 percent of the territory of the peninsula, the steppe takes about 70 percent of the entire territory of Crimea. Crimean steppe is the southern outflow of Eastern European Plain. It is almost completely located on the same level, only in the north he drops slightly. In the Kerch Peninsula, the steppe is divided by a parpachi ridge, here the south-western part is flat, and northeast - hilly. This zone contains famous mud hills and coastal lake basins. Here are unique mud volcanoes, (these volcanoes are not related to real volcanoes, because cold dirt cold dirt instead of hot lava).

Flat part The Crimean steppe consists of southern black soils, extraordinarily fertile, from that more than half of the territory is occupied by arable land, the rest of the forest and pasture, and only less than 5% of the steppe is occupied by vineyards and garden sites.

The basis of green tourism - Crimean forests. It is naive to believe that the Crimea is a dry naked steppe. Almost 350 thousand hectares of the territory of the peninsula are occupied by forests. On the slopes of the mountains are mostly oaks, there are about 65% of all trees (while pine - less than 15%). The legendary juniper is growing on the southern coast, and evergreen fine-grade strawberries. Here you can find pistachios, Pontiic Igal, Lanenik, Piracker, Sustained Jasmine, and many other plants that are hard to find on the mainland of Ukraine.

Variety of Water Resources Crimea. In the Crimean Peninsula there are more than one and a half thousand rivers and drains. The total length of water streams is almost 6 thousand kilometers. At the same time, it should be noted that most of them are small, in summer drying streams. It's amazing that rivers, the length of which more than 5 kilometers, on the peninsula only 257.

The main rivers of the Peninsula are divided into the following groups:

  1. Rivers of the northern slope of the Crimean Mountains. Here is the famous Saligir, the longest Crimean river, her length is 232 kilometers. The rest of the northern slope rivers are much shorter, for example wet indole - only 27 kilometers, chruks - 33 kilometers.
  2. Rivers of the northwestern slope. Here is the longest alma river, its length is 84 kilometers. Other rivers (black, Belbek, Kacha, Western Bulganok) - A little shorter.
  3. Rivers of the southern coast of Crimea. It is mostly small aquatic streams, for example, the length of the river Stude-SU is only 8.4 kilometers, Demerji - 14, and Derekoyka - 12 kilometers.

Amazing fact: the rivers of the North-Western slopes are located almost in parallel, and half of its path are mountain streams. The rivers of the northern slopes, which flow on the plain, fall into Sivash. On the southern shore - short rivers are all the mountain streams, they all fall into the Black Sea. Unique here is the river Study-Su, at its short path it forms four beautiful waterfalls.

The cause of the weak development of river water on the peninsula is that the main source of rivers are rain. Rainwater nourishes the River Crimea by almost 50 percent, while groundwater gives the rivers of only 30 percent of water potential. The rest is melting of snow. The potential of the groundwater of the Crimea barely exceeds a billion cubic meters, for comparison, from Ukraine submits annually three times more water on the peninsula. 20 reservoirs are help to control the groundwater, and more than a hundred ponds. The North-Crimean Canal from Ukraine serves 3.5 billion cubic meters of water in Crimea, this is the main water source for agriculture. If it were not for this water source, then the arid Crimean steppe could not be fertile. (For comparison, in 1937 there were 35 thousand hectares of irrigated land, and in 1994 more than 10 times more than 400 thousand).

Of course, speaking of water resources, it is impossible not to mention Lake Limans, valuable healing sources of salt water. In total, more than 50 such lakes are located on the territory of the Crimea, their total area exceeds 5 thousand square kilometers. Salts and medicinal dirt are obtained here. The most famous Lake is Sakskoe, but you can also visit Sasiek, Donuzlav, Bakal, Red or Lake Aktash.

Outcome: In Crimea, you can find everything on the cards, and even more. Camping, Winter and Summer Holidays, Extreme Tourism, Pedestrian and Cycling, Wine Tourism, Rock Climbing - Here you can find holidays for every taste and budget. The unique climate and the atmosphere of these places will make you come here again and again.

During the period from 1783 to 1917, the conversion of the ATD of the Crimea as part of the Tauride province of the Russian Empire. From the end of 1920, after the final consolidation of Soviet power, the closest changes in the structure and composition of the Crimea began in the Crimea.

After the end of the Great Patriotic War in June 1945, the Crimean ASSR was renamed the Crimean Region. At that time, it consisted of 32 ATE (26 districts and 6 cities of regional meanings).

Since 1948, the process of enlarging the administrative-territorial division of the Crimea. By December 1962, the Crimean Region consisted only from 10 rural areas: Alushta, Bakhchisarai, Belogorsky, Dzhanki, Evpatoria, Krasnogvardeysky and Krasnoperekopsky, Leninsky, Nizhnegorsky and Black Sea (Figure 2). The city councils of regional subordination were Yalta and Feodosia, as well as from 1964 - Alushta. In addition to them, the Regional Council was subject to the city of Simferopol, Kerch, Evpatoria and Dzhanki.

Figure 2. - Administrative and territorial division of the Crimean Region, 1962

In 1963, the Evpatoria district was renamed Saksky. In 1964, the Alushta district was liquidated, and Alushta became the city of regional subordination.

In 1965, rural areas were replaced by the areas, Kirovsky, Razzolnensky and Simferopol districts were restored. In 1966, Pervomaysky and Soviet districts were allocated. In 1979, the city of Saki received the status of the city of regional subordination, and the Sudaksky district was formed.

In 1993, Armenian received the status of the city of republican subordination. And in 1994, Crimea became an autonomous republic. From this point on, the modern administrative-territorial division of the Crimea was entrenched.

As part of Ukraine, being an autonomous republic, the Crimea had the following administrative and territorial division (Figure 3). The arch consisted of 25 regions:

  • · 14 areas with a predominantly rural population and a center that is a city type village (who had the status of the urban settlement);
  • · 11 Territories subordinate to the city's councils of republican subordination with mainly urban population and the center in the city of republican significance.

The Arc included the following areas: Bakhchisarai, Belogorsky, Dzhanki, Kirovsky, Leninsky, Krasnogvardeysky, Krasnoperekopsky, Nizhnegorsky, Soviet, Saki, Pervomaysky, Razdolnensky, Simferopol, Black Sea Areas. And the following territories subordinate to the city councils: Alushta, Armenian, Janka, Evpatoria, Kerch, Krasnoperekopsky, Saksky, Simferopol, Sudak, Feodosia, Yalta City Council.


Figure 3. - Administrative and territorial division of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (2013)

In connection with the connection in 2014, the Crimea to the Russian Federation as its full-fledged subject, the ATD has undergone some changes related to the already existing legislative base of Russia in this area.

According to the law of the Republic of Crimea dated June 6, 2014 No. 18-VPC "On the administrative-territorial device of the Republic of Crimea" Article 2, the administrative-territorial structure of the Republic of Kazakhstan is carried out on the following principles:

Article 6 presents the types and list of administrative-territorial units:

1. The administrative and territorial units of the Republic of Crimea are the city of republican significance and areas.

The city of republican significance may consist of areas in the city.

  • 2. The Republic of Crimea consists of the following administrative and territorial entities:
  • 1) the city of republican value Simferopol with a subordinate territory;
  • 2) the city of republican importance to Alushta with a subordinate territory;
  • 3) the city of republican importance to Armenian with a subordinate territory;
  • 4) the city of republican significance to Dzhanka with a subordinate territory;
  • 5) the city of republican importance of Evpatoria with a subordinate territory;

That is, there have been some qualitative changes in the ATD. The adjacent territories of the cities of republican significance with settlements located on them became urban districts (municipalities). Urban-type settlements, previously had the status of urban settlements, were transformed into rural settlements, which in turn led to a reduction in the overall level of urbanization in the Republic of Crimea.

Crimea is a large tourist center of the Black Sea. The territory of the Peninsula is divided between two administrative entities: the Republic oflyonia and the Sevastopol City Council.

Relatively recently on the map of Russia appeared Crimea - this peninsula was part of our country in March 2014.
