Provincia de Rusia . aparición desde una distancia de las paredes whiteregulares. El fino valle entre ella andDemirdji es uno de los puntos vitales en la península, y a través de ella corre el excelente camino de carruajes entre Simferopol y Alushta. Más allá de la aldea de pescadores de Tuak las colinas son muchlower, y se dividen en varias cadenas y grupos separados. En Feodosia la cadena principal cesaba. Desde ese punto hasta el centro de la península de Kertch se extiende la estepa, y allí, una vez más, las colinas bajas corren hacia el este, que geologicallypertenecen todavía más cerca del Cáucaso.

Provincial Russia . appearance from a distance of the whiteregular walls. The fine valley between it andDemirdji is one of the vital points in the peninsula, and through it runs the excellent carriage roadbetween Simferopol and Alushta. Beyond thehttle fishing village of Tuak the hills are muchlower, and split up into several chains and separategroups. At Feodosia the main chain ceasesaltogether. From that point to the middle of theKertch peninsula stretches level steppe, and there, again, low hills run eastward, which geologicallybelong still more closely to the Caucasus. These ranges throughout their whole extent arerich in admirable scenery, but much of it remainsunappreciated, for the fair weather Yalta touristsare the last persons in the world to stray from thebridle paths. There are countless narrow gorgeswith festoons of water plants, cold, clear, hurryingstreams, waterfalls shrouded in spray, stalactitecaves and deep ravines, with precipitous wallswhiter than the snow which lingers in them late in.

Theirromantic glens contain the finest gardens of theCrimea, for there is no sharp break with thesteppes northward, and hence both northern andsouthern floras are found in great variety andabundance. For the most part the hills arewooded. Oaks, pines, beeches, and cypresses growin profusion on the lower slopes, and the higherare clothed with maples, ashes, elms, and pines.The beech woods particularly are thick and close, with frequent clumps of giants, each one of whichis more than fifteen feet in circumference.
