A NEW LOOK OF THE ANTIQUE MONUMENT

The longlasting restoration of Kerch antique monument is over!
Now all tourists and locals have pleasure to enjoy the results.

The process lasted several years, and the task was to renew the upstairs and the square around the monument to dead heroes of the WWII. But the monument itself is situated on the Mithridate mountain that was called so in honour of the antique tsar of the Kingdom of Pontus.
My city Kerch is more than 2600 years now, and its history is really exciting. Many existing monuments need restoration to live more, so it's great the state give them such a chance.
Though I amn't sure all funds go exactly to the restoration and not to the pockets of local authorities...

But still we see the result! The upstairs look better now because before restoration they were dangerous for people.
