The Russians told how to get to the Crimea through the “land corridor”: it is important to follow the rules

The path of vacationers to Crimea, alas, is narrowing every day – and by Monday there was only one “path” left – an “alternative land corridor” through the territory of the DPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions.

We talked with those who took the difficult path to the peninsula on Monday night and are now faced with another misfortune that has fallen on the Crimean Riviera so beloved by vacationers.

– We were going to drive across the Crimean bridge, – says 26-year-old Elena from Mozhaisk, who went on vacation to Koktebel with a group of peers in three cars. – We reasoned that it would be better to wait and wait than to take a new detour route.

However, when Lena and her fellow travelers reached the Crimean bridge, traffic on it was blocked. The guys climbed into the Internet and learned from there that they should “keep calm and follow the instructions of the transport security officers.” Those waiting were told that the bridge was temporarily closed, they would check it and open it.

– But in the chat of those who go to the Crimea, they wrote that there were 650 cars in the queue, that is, it will be a long time, – says Lena. – Part of our company is traveling by train from Moscow to Simferopol, they wrote that their train was stopped halfway. In general, we decided to go by the bypass road. It’s good that we don’t need to go to Dzhankoy, they say there is a collapse there.

According to the Crimeans living in the Dzhankoysky district, they won’t be able to drive at all on Monday. Trains have been suspended, residents are being evacuated along the roads within a radius of 5 km from the site of the drone attack.

“They are taken to the sea by buses and placed in boarding houses, so they say,” shares Tatyana Mikhailovna, a resident of the village of Krasnogvardeisky, 25 km from Dzhankoy. “Those who need to go to Simferopol or Kerch used to go around us, now they seem to have opened a direct road for them, but there are traffic jams.

Meanwhile, the Crimean authorities reported that ambulances were on duty in places of congestion on the Crimean roads, and trains to Simferopol and Evpatoria from Moscow, St.

Those who travel to the Crimean resorts by a detour are advised not to leave the “land corridor” to the surrounding cities, especially to Pologi, Energodar, Vasilievka, Mikhailovka, Kuibyshevo and Tokmak.

– Of course, if you have already gone this way, then you want to see the cities, – 39-year-old Vadim is sure, who is now getting by land corridor in a male company in 2 cars. – We look at the junction, which city is nearby, and, if everyone is interested, we move out. But just now they were not allowed to move out, there are military men standing there. Dangerous, they say. Well, we didn’t insist, of course. They said that only Berdyansk is possible. But we have already passed it.

But literally the day before, autotourists following the “alternative corridor” introduced the concept of “intercepting resorts” – these are Urzuf and Melekino on the Sea of ​​\u200b\u200bAzov on the territory of the DPR, 40 km west of Mariupol. According to those who have already been there, everything is in relative order there, you can spend the night inexpensively, eat and swim in the clear sea.

“In Urzuf and Melekino, there is not the Taganrog Bay, where the water is fresh, but the Belosarayskaya Spit – that is, the real Sea of ​​\u200b\u200bAzov, where there was a stir in Soviet times,” says an elderly couple of autotourists from Ruza, who was driving a detour to the Crimean Gurzuf, and on the way turned into the Azov Urzuf. – Melekino is a little closer to Mariupol, but the sea is even better there. We are middle-aged people, it’s hard for us to drive so much, we decided to spend the night somewhere. And they remembered how at the beginning of family life, almost 40 years ago, when our children were small, the whole family rested in Urzuf. Remembered – and turned. Housing was found for 1000 rubles, a beautiful room with a sea view in a local boarding house. In fact, there was no one there but us. Only the woman who offered the room there.

– How did you find it?

– The Internet responds to requests for housing in Urzuf that “in Ukraine it is better not to rest yet.” But if you go to the city, there are grannies with pies and posters. Like good old times.
