CrimeaPRESS reports:
On Saturday, April 6, the Tourist Information Center of the Republic of Crimea invites you to learn interesting facts about the main “gate of Crimea” — the Simferopol railway station. According to Tourist portal of Crimeafree excursions will be held for everyone, during which participants will learn about the encrypted messages of the clock tower, the secret of the station square and the history of the development of the railway on the peninsula.
A professional guide will generously share interesting facts about one of the most beautiful train stations in our country. Those interested are welcome on April 6 at the Tourist Information Center next to the Italian Courtyard of the Simferopol Station.
The first location will be a clock tower with an unusual zodiac dial. Participants in the historical walk will learn why it is red and why the author of the project, architect Alexey Dushkin, replaced some of the Zodiac signs on it.
Then the group will enter the main building of the station, built of white Inkerman stone in the “Stalin Empire” or “Triumph” style, and from there – into the Italian courtyard, the interior decoration of which resembles the location of the same name in the Livadia Palace. There they will share with tourists another secret idea of the architect, which he implemented on the roof of the central building.
The guide will tell you what symbolism was encrypted in the arrangement of dove figures on the station fountain. Participants in the historical walk will also be told about the interesting, but unrealized ideas of the architect Alexei Dushkin for decorating the main “gates of Crimea”.
On April 6, three free excursions around the Simferopol station will take place. Registration forms are open for those wishing to attend:
