We came

Are you ready to climb to the top? It's not as high as it seems. Eagles don't nest here, but clouds sometimes cling to the top of this tower. And then she is enveloped in fog and dreams of her youth.

We have already overcome a long way up. It was a path used by ancient Abkhazians and now tourists walk. This is not a wild mountain climb. But when the sun is scorching from above...

There is no sun now, but it is quite stuffy. It happens in the summer before the rain.

And the path winds in a frequent serpentine between trees and stones. I have already said that the trees here have a slope. It was unusual for me. In my forests, trees always grow straight.

And now the "light at the end of the tunnel" is already visible. The forest must end. What's next?

And then a narrow path leads to the cliff...
are you ready?

Then open your eyes wider. The whole world is spread out at your feet. Sukhum is hiding far away in the fog. At the bottom right is the New Athos ... and the Black Sea.
Hello world!

And that's where you need to turn back... we came. This is the same Anakopian fortress and the same tower that is visible from below. And next time we will definitely look there.
