Who said that resorts should be located on the shores of tropical seas? Kislovodsk refutes such allegations, offering guests the very best that is in the south of Russia. Pure air and mineral waters in combination with amazing species can leave few indifferent.
Residents of megacities, coming here, are amazed at one local peculiarity – there are never traffic jams, despite the fact that many local streets are quite narrow. There are enough natural beauties in Kislovodsk, the city is buried in verdure. Moreover, in the city itself and its immediate vicinity there are only 3 rivers. The ancestors of modern people lived on the place where the city now stands, back in 4-5 millennia BC. This is evidenced by a number of archaeological finds. Kislovodsk began to grow after people began to settle around the Sour Water fortress. It was founded by order of Alexander I. There really are a lot of green spaces, but not all of them appeared on their own. Over the past decade, more than a hundred thousand trees have been planted in the city. Around Kislovodsk, mountains rise to a height of 1600 meters.
There are enough resort towns in the Caucasian Mineral Waters. The most southern of them is Kislovodsk. The sky over Kislovodsk is covered in dense clouds for only about 60 days a year. The height of the city above sea level is higher than that of all other settlements included in the Caucasian Mineral Waters. It is in Kislovodsk that the famous Narzan mineral water is produced. Actually, thanks to the sources, the city got its name. There is more rainfall annually than in all surrounding cities. The plant world in Kislovodsk is very rich. About two and a half hundred different species of shrubs and trees grow in the forests adjacent to it.
