«Parade Standing on the Horse Back»

The extended military parade provided by a team of young riders from the Kremlin Equestrian Riding School (KERS) included traditional Cossack stunts, the truly acrobatic tricks performed by riders while racing, including standing on the horse back. The riders appear in costumes stylized to look like the full dress uniforms of His Imperial Majesty’s Convoy, red cherkesky (collarless kaftans) and tall white fur hats.

Neo-Gothic Castle "Swallow's Nest"

View of the Swallow's Nest Castle (Lastochkino Gnezdo) from the top of Aurora cliff. It is one of the most recognizable symbols of the Crimean Peninsula. The beautiful decorative Neo-Gothic castle was constructed by design of the Russian architect Leonid Sherwood between 1911 and 1912 on money commissioned from the owner of this land, Baron von Steingel, a Baltic German noble who had made a fortune extracting oil in Baku, acquired the timber cottage and within a year had it replaced with the current building almost within a year.
