* The acquaintance with the city will begin on the main square: it is here that you will learn how the settlement was formed on the site of modern Saks and where the resort originated. I will supplement the story with archival photographs that will help you imagine what the city was like in past eras. Then we will walk to the first park in the western Crimea, and in Pushkin Square we will talk about the poet's connection with the cozy town. You will find the marble "wishing stone", you will be able to drink the living water from a local spring and understand why Saki is a truly fabulous town. At the end of the walk, I will take you to the monument on the shore of the lake, which the locals call Brontik at home, and tell you how it turned out that the symbol of the Crimean city was not just anyone, but a dinosaur! Of course, acquaintance with the Saki will be incomplete without a walk along its main natural attraction — the salty Saki Lake. On the shore of the reservoir, you will learn what myths people have about its healing power. I will tell you about the Saka deposit of therapeutic mud, about the path of mud treatment techniques from antiquity to the present day, about the resort history of Saka and famous local health resorts. Surgeons Pirogov and Burdenko, writers Gogol and Lesya Ukrainka, Admirals Makarov and Lazarev — you will learn about the extraordinary personalities who came to the resort town for healing mud baths.
