CHERSONESE, CRIMEA

 
  view to Sevastopol  
 

Overview of area toward Sevastopol. The Greek city was on a headland that is now part of the southwestern section of enlarged Sevastopol. During the Crimean War this area was still outside the city and was occupied by French troops whose besieging lines were on top of the ancient ruins. The city wall shown in the previous photos is directly behind the foliage.
