One of the most beautiful places in Abkhazia! In general, New Athos is the most beautiful whole! And the station is impressive!!! If you go further, there is a waterfall, and on the square there is the largest and cheapest souvenir shop!!! We were in Chernihiv, I liked the 1500 earrings and the 2000 bracelet made of an alloy of nickel silver and silver with turquoise, I bought it, and in New Athos - 300 and 400!!!!!!! They're exactly the same in that store!!!! Was I upset- that's not the word! I love New Athos!!!
I liked the place, it's beautiful. While repairs are underway, the railway station is being restored. There is also a pond, a small waterfall, you can go down, go to the museum, just walk around. The place is a credit.
A beautiful, picturesque, memorable place! It's easy to get there. There are many locations for interesting photos. I definitely recommend you to visit. It is better early in the morning when there are no crowds of tourists.
Abkhazia, my love, Mount Athos at night is a place of accumulation of architectural and historical attractions. A place of accumulation of temples and holy places!
And I really like that all this is not "polished to a shine" for a tourist, but is in such a pristine, authentic form. Harmoniously fits into nature!
A very beautiful place with azure water and so on!
It is a very atmospheric, beautiful place. I am glad that the station has begun to be restored and developed. Over time, this will definitely be a point of tourist tension. A very picturesque pond with emerald water, which is teeming with fish. A beautiful man-made waterfall. I have not been to the museum and the church, which are located on the territory of the park, but even just walking around those places is a great pleasure! If you are going to Abkhazia, be sure to stop by New Athos and visit this place. There will be much more impressions than from the cave
A very picturesque place: an abandoned railway station, a tunnel overgrown with tropical plants, a pond where glass-bottomed boats float and an artificial waterfall. In the cozy cafe near the church you can enjoy this beautiful view. It is very interesting that the cafes in the district do not have a toilet, since this is a nature reserve and we were offered to wash our hands in the spring.
I've been wanting to get to the art. Psyrtskha, I really wanted to look at a small building - a work of art that was built under the USSR. , and bam, there's a repair. And so of course it's great there. the indescribable atmosphere, the nature is fascinating, the tunnel seems to go nowhere 🔥
It's great in Abkhazia, the waterfalls are super, the nature is great, everything was very pleasant, we got aesthetic pleasure, only a little sevdep remained, but this did not prevent us from enjoying the beauties of nature, Rizza Lake and blue lake by 5 points
A picturesque place, for the second time in Abkhazia and without hesitation we went here again.
It was very unexpected to see the train, the railway is now functioning.
I recommend walking along the Simon Canonite trail (adult ticket 200 rubles), the trail is uphill, the ascents are equipped.
The Psyrtskha platform is currently under restoration, which is very encouraging. The place is attractive to tourists for its scenic beauty. For amateur photographers, there are gorgeous views here.
I advise you to go up to the station along the cypress alley through the waterfall. Have lunch in Anhua. Very beautiful nature in New Athos. We had a rest in July. I really liked it.
Nicely. It's fresh. Atmospheric.
It turned out to be a pleasant walk.
Many beautiful locations are concentrated in one place. The New Athos Waterfall is among them. You can also refresh yourself with soft drinks, including Sukhumi beer, at local shops.
Psyrtskhinsky Nature Reserve is a unique place where nature and man exist in harmony. Located in the picturesque mountains of the Caucasus, this nature reserve impresses with its natural diversity and beautiful landscapes. Quad biking at Quadro Pedro was a pleasant addition to the tour.
Incredibly beautiful and historic place! No one will believe that you are in Abkhazia. Incredible landscapes, air and a beautiful station. I definitely advise everyone to visit!
Restoration is currently underway on the platform - the famous cafe is being restored. The place is remarkable - a good view of the lake, the beginning of the path to the cell of Simon the Canonite. The platform begins and ends with the entrance to the tunnel. If you catch a train passing by the platform, it's an epic sight. I recommend it!
A great town for a family vacation. There is no Sochi pandemonium, there is no exhausting stuffiness, the waterfall and the gorge do an excellent job. There is always a place to stop and eat. Reasonable prices for rubles
A very picturesque place among mountains and greenery. I recommend you to visit. However, there are small disadvantages: the building of the platform itself needs repair, it seems to have even begun (there are scaffolding, bags of mixtures), but the work is being carried out somehow slowly. Well, in principle, this is the norm for Abkhazia, everything is slowly being restored there..
That's what's fascinating about her! There is a Psyrtskha station in New Athos. While you are walking towards it, you can see a blue lake of extraordinary beauty, where people ride on transparent boats. The waterfall is a former Soviet hydroelectric power station, the church of Simon Kananit. The works of the Abkhazian sculptor and artist and founder of the New Athos cave Givi Smyr.
One of the famous places in Abkhazia, once an abandoned railway station. Restoration work is underway and the station is welcoming visitors again. The platform offers a beautiful view of the lake, which turns into a waterfall. A banana grove has grown up on the opposite side of Peron. A very pleasant and quiet place
The place is wonderful, great locations for photos!! There is a waterfall nearby and you can go to the cell of Simon Kananit, one of the first apostles of Christ, the road lies along a road paved with wild stone and surrounded by picturesque nature. You definitely need to make a wish in the cell!!! It will definitely come true!!!!
It is a very beautiful place, atmospheric. It is currently under restoration. Nearby is a river with transparent boats for rent. There is a beautiful waterfall nearby, where you can relax from the heat.
A beautiful place. It is above the waterfall, on the bank of an overgrown river, where people go boating. An open area between two tunnels and a railway station pavilion. Beautiful, delicate, flying, in the pre-revolutionary style. Cast-iron embankment parapet, cast-iron benches. That's how you see high society here and ladies in huge hats. Of course, now it is so neglected and abandoned. But in August 2023, repairs were underway. To be honest, I don't even know if such a repair is for the best. After all, restoration of historical value is needed here, and not just smeared with paint. The path to the grotto of Simon the Canonite begins nearby. Very beautiful nature, mountain river, rocks, lush vegetation. It's uphill to the grotto, there are a lot of stairs. There are places to relax and to swim in the icy water. Take drinking water with you. Comfortable shoes are mandatory. There is an Orthodox church in the grotto, there is a service, you can write notes and put candles. There are handkerchiefs at the entrance for women who have not brought their own. There are a lot of people in August, excursion groups. Entrance to the trail is paid, the waterfall and the platform are free.
A beautiful place, a great idea to restore. Only there is a minus- trains are running, but there are no warnings! Be careful! There are boats you can ride on a transparent boat pond.
Hello, the most picturesque railway station that I've ever been to is located behind the waterfall, go a little further behind it along the lake and here it is the station. Beautiful! It's cool, bananas are growing, you can cool off in the tunnel! And taking pictures is very cool!
It is located in an extremely beautiful place and I really liked the architecture of the station. I am very glad that the station is being restored. Stay in Abkhazia, be sure to look here, half a day is enough.
The most beautiful place, waterfall, lake, nature, there are no words.
You can go boating on the lake, so to speak, plunge into its beauty.walk around the village, there is a cafe where you can relax
An interesting place, beautiful. Nature wins there) there is a place to walk and sit on a bench. There are a lot of locations for photos. My son was impressed by the rails and tunnels! The reservoir adds a zest to this place. It seems that they saw a boat there, but did not understand it for a photo, or it was just already abandoned. Security on one side of the tunnel, does not bother anyone, the main thing is not to go beyond the fences. I recommend you to visit, you will not regret it
It is better to go after the hot sun, the area is open, there is nowhere to hide. I think even in the evening it's better, because there are very few walking areas here.I was pleased that the renovation work of the building itself is underway. There are many zones for photos, after all, even the most terrible buildings, the greenery of this area turns into a fairy tale.There is a souvenir fair, which is not bad by the way.They did not dare to take a boat, because the canal is completely overgrown with algae, it will be problematic to get to the shore in emergency situations.
A very beautiful place! The station has now begun to be restored. We walked with the family in the evening and saw fireflies, it was atmospheric and crazy! We will definitely come again to admire this beauty!
An atmospheric place, the station itself was under reconstruction at the time of our visit in June 2024,
there is a beautiful waterfall, there are places to relax, to walk.
We visit the platform every time we visit Abkhazia. It is interesting, ancient and now under restoration. A mountain river flows nearby, palm trees grow. We can go to the monk's cell, we did not go. There is a cafe and a bazaar nearby. Paid Parking 200 rubles. downstairs in front of the bazaar for January 2024
The place is incredibly beautiful. They began to put things in order and equip them. But I liked it just in a dilapidated state.
But it's great that they don't let such beauty completely disappear.
A picturesque place for walking, now the building / pavilion of the railway station is being restored here - it is a large openwork gazebo, on the shore of an artificially created dam with a waterfall. The station is located between two mountain tunnels. Crossing the paths, you can immediately find yourself in a protected area, find places for panoramic photos, walk to the cave of Simon the Canonite.
The platform itself does not work. But at the same time it is a very wonderful place. It is located next to the former hydroelectric power station through which the river flows forming a beautiful waterfall.
Simon the Canonite Cave is also nearby and the New Athos Caves are within walking distance.
We went to the grotto of Simon the Canonite and saw this beauty. They are already restoring it. I can't decide for myself whether it's good or bad. This is how the old abandoned station looks mysteriously in the evening. Delight.
It is very beautiful atmospheric, you can also see the departure of the dragon train, the water is clear, clear blue, and if you walk a little straight you can see a large waterfall, I advise you
A great place, it's not only an abandoned place overgrown with bright greenery, there is also a lake, a large waterfall, and the cave of the Apostle Simon, with a frontal place and other pilgrimage shrines. It's a pleasure to walk here, comfortable shoes are required, it's hard to climb to the cell uphill.
An architectural place. They are reconstructing the facility. Be sure to visit Athos.
This is the only station that overlooks the waterfall.
I recommend.
The train to Moscow was greeted at the station, very warmly, touching and unusual. The combination of the solidity of the buildings and abandonment, bullet marks, inscriptions on the stone from 1923 - all this was very impressive.
A gorgeous place for a photo shoot, peculiar and unusual , near an abandoned tunnel , a water station with a beautiful bas-relief , a lake with blue water and lilies
This is a heavenly place. It's very beautiful, you definitely need to get there, it even seems that the station is being restored. Go down further, there is a park and a holy place. And the railway road is operational, a train can pass! But it is very interesting to dream up how it was before....
