A bit over an hour from Sebastopol and most famous for the post-World-War-II conference that divided up Europe spheres of influence among the Allies (held at early-20-century Italianate Livadia Palace, built for Czar Nicholas II and open for visits). Other landmarks include the Anton Chekhov House-Museum, where the famed 19th-century playwright penned The Cherry Orchard, and a short drive west of town, Vorontsovsky Palace, an early-19th-century pastiche of Scottish castle and Arabian fantasy. It’s also the largest of the beach resort cities and towns all up and down the coast.
