TOP-26 entertainment in the village of Dolzhanskaya, Krasnodar Territory

The Dolzhanskaya (or Dolgaya) Spit is a strip of land made of shell rock separating the waters of the Sea of ​​Azov and the Taganrog Bay (differing in color and “texture” even visually), located in the Yeisk district of the Krasnodar Territory.

The approximate length of the beaches of the spit (on both sides) is about 17 kilometers.

Here you can find options from completely “wild” and unequipped areas to well-maintained beaches with a wide range of services for vacationers rented by various recreation centers and campsites.

Along the entire length of the coast, the entrance to the sea is gentle and safe, including for small children, so the beaches of Dolzhanskaya Spit are often chosen for family holidays.

TOP-3 - what to see in Dolzhanskaya for tourists

To get acquainted with the village of Dolzhanskaya, travelers visit the most popular attractions that glorified it and became symbols.

Long braid

  • Coordinates on the map: 46.684040, 37.735147.

The Long Spit is a landscape natural monument of the Krasnodar region, formed by shell rock. On the southern side, the spit separates the Taganrog Bay from the Sea of ​​Azov. This place is known for its luxurious shell beaches, deep clear sea, fresh lakes, and a variety of plants and animals.

Dolgaya Spit was recognized as a natural monument of regional significance in 1988. Today, the natural landscape, bird nesting sites and rare plant species are protected. Birds such as the little rook, black-headed gull, sea plover and avocet build nests on the spit and spend the winter. The flora consists of angular clover, chicory, Tatar molokan and barley fire. This is also the only spit in the Yeisk region where branched tamarisk grows.

There is no tourist infrastructure on the spit. Nevertheless, she is popular. This is a great place to surf and kite, swim and sunbathe on a clean beach, take a walk or have a photo shoot.

Mud Lake Swan

  • GPS coordinates: 46.647812, 37.803793.

Mud Lake is located on the coast. It is separated from the sea by a narrow sandy beach. One of the main advantages of Lebediny is that it is located within the village - to get to it, you don’t need to spend several hours on a bus.

The bottom of the reservoir is covered with sulfide-silt mud, which has a unique composition. Due to the increased content of beneficial microelements, they are able to treat many diseases. Doctors recommend them for metabolic disorders, diseases of the spine and joints, skin problems, for restoring bones after injuries and generally improving immunity.

To achieve the desired result, the tourist should apply mud to the problem area and leave for 20 minutes. When dry, the sulfide-silt suspension saturates the skin with organic microelements that reach the tissues of bones and joints and contribute to their restoration.

Mud also has disinfecting and healing properties, thanks to which wounds, scars and fungal diseases are treated. Tourists who have tried treatment with Swan Lake mud note the cosmetic effect - the skin after the procedure is clean, soft, smooth.

Before visiting the lake, tourists should consult a specialist, as there are contraindications.

  • Address: Kolkhoznaya st., 13A.

The ethnographic center was created in 2022 on the initiative of the Dolzhan Cossack community. In the future, similar attractions will appear in other villages. “Visiting the Ataman” a lot of interesting things await you.

Cossacks in national costumes will teach you how to use a saber and show you combat techniques. The greatest delight is caused by horse riding, in which the Cossacks will demonstrate their national skill in handling a horse and perform complex acrobatic tricks.

At the end of the program, tourists will be invited to taste real Cossack dumplings, Kuban borscht, sweets and tea. The name of the center reflects the welcoming atmosphere that reigns here. “Visiting the Ataman” the tourist will feel at home.

How to get there

It is unlikely that you will be able to get to the Dolzhanskaya Shoal directly. The only type of transport that can deliver a traveler without transfers to their destination is a car.

In all other cases, you should first get to Yeysk:

  • It is better to fly to Rostov-on-Don or Krasnodar by plane, then use an intercity bus, train, or train.
  • You can take a train ticket. Any train that stops in Yeysk or at the Starominskaya station, located 60 km from it, is suitable.

Bus No. 121 runs from Yeisk to Dolzhanskaya. This part of the journey will take about an hour. If you want more comfortable travel, you can order a taxi. This convenience will cost 1000–1200 rubles. (cheaper in winter months). Each tourist overcomes the remaining path in his own way (this depends on the chosen place of residence).

Unusual architecture of the village

The village of Dolzhanskaya was founded in the 19th century. Some buildings have been preserved from those distant times and are in harmony with modern monumental structures.

Church in the name of the Holy Life-Giving Trinity

  • Address: per. Sovetov, 31A.

The first Holy Trinity Church was built in the first quarter of the 19th century. It was a wooden building on a cold stone foundation. The church was demolished and rebuilt in stone in 1877.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a brick prayer house was erected on the territory of the temple in honor of the Holy Great Martyr Catherine. In 1934, the temple was dismantled, and a guard house was located in the prayer house. The building was never repaired, and by the time the territory was returned to the parishioners, it was no longer possible to restore it. Thus, the last element of the historical complex disappeared.

Construction of the new Holy Trinity Church started in 2014. Architect A.S. Tutunov built a magnificent brick building in the eclectic style. The temple has a cross at the base. The main building is decorated with a risalit with a triangular gable and turrets. The harmonious completion is a light six, covered with an emerald tent with a golden crown. The two-tier bell tower is made in the same style.

Currently, the Holy Trinity Church is operational. This is the only church in the village and its surroundings, which makes it the main religious center.

Lighthouse on Dolgaya Spit

  • Address: Long Spit.

One of the attractions of the Long Spit is the lighthouse, which served sailors at the beginning of the 20th century. It's not working now. The tall tower is decorated with metal sheets that are slowly being eaten away by rust.

A steel staircase leads to the lighthouse tower. Those who manage to climb it will receive a prize - a stunning panorama of the village, the Long Spit and the Sea of ​​Azov.

Museum-Estate “Cossack Yard”

  • Address: st. Frunze, 8.

“Cossack Yard” is a small entertainment complex, on the territory of which the traditional buildings of a Cossack village have been recreated. The main attractions are the Cossack huts, built of sandstone and covered with thatched roofs.

In addition, there are wooden gazebos and summer cafes where tourists will be treated to national cuisine. The attention of visitors is attracted by a wooden tower, which serves as an example of a Cossack guard post. Everyone wants to climb on it, but this can be dangerous, as a sign nailed to the pole warns.

For children, the museum has a playground with carousels, sandboxes and figures of characters from Kuban fairy tales. Other entertainment includes performances by animators in traditional costumes, as well as horseback riding in the courtyard.

Monuments and sculptures in Dolzhanskaya

Memorial and sculptural compositions reflect the unique features of Dolzhanskaya culture, as well as its history.

Mass grave of participants of the Civil War

  • Address: Pervomaisky lane.

In 1918, Soviet power was established in Dolzhanskaya, however, counter-revolutionaries continued to attack the village. To put an end to the whites, the Dolzhan Cossack Daniil Aksyuta formed a revolutionary battalion, the participants of which were veterans, non-residents, Cossacks and poor residents of the village.

In the summer of the same year, the Red troops left Yeisk. Half of Aksyuta’s battalion went to the front with them. At this time, the White Guards attacked the rest of the battalion and brutally dealt with its members. Daniil Aksyuta was subjected to brutal torture, after which he was put in a punishment cell, where he was beaten to death.

The village was liberated from the whites in the spring of 1920. During the entire period of White Guard terror, 12 people died in Dolzhanskaya. They were all buried in a mass grave. In 1955, a stone obelisk topped with a red star was erected at the burial site. Later the monument was updated. Today it is a three-stage obelisk, decorated with a sphere with a red star. Commemorative plaques are placed on the lower step.

Mass grave of residents and Soviet soldiers who died during the Second World War

  • Address: Lenin street, 1.

The monument over the mass grave is the oldest in the village. It was installed in 1945. On a stone pedestal rise bronze figures of a young man in military uniform, which symbolizes all fallen Soviet soldiers, as well as an ageless woman - she symbolizes the civilian population of the village, as well as all mothers, daughters and wives who lost loved ones on the battlefields.

Behind the monument there is a wall with the names of the debtors who gave their lives for the Victory. During the Great Patriotic War, civilians shot by the Nazis and Soviet soldiers who participated in the battles for the liberation of the village from the occupiers were buried at this place.

Monument to Border Guard Warriors

  • Address: Oktyabrskaya st., 54.

The monument was opened in 2022. It represents a bronze figure of a young border guard. The man is dressed in a military uniform and has binoculars hanging around his neck. A faithful shepherd dog sits at his feet.

A border pillar can be seen behind the soldier's right shoulder. Border guards who served the country in the Soviet years and now were invited to the opening ceremony.

Monument to V.I. Lenin

  • Address: Lenin street.

The monument to the great leader was erected in 1970 on the street, which also bears the name of Lenin. Vladimir Ilyich is depicted in full growth, proudly looking forward - into the communist future.

The sculpture is placed on a high concrete pedestal, making it visible from afar. Since 1975, the monument has been under protection as an object of cultural and historical heritage of the village.

Monument to Sturgeon

  • Address: st. Chapaeva, 14/44.

A bronze sculpture of a sturgeon appeared in Dolzhanskaya in 2016 and immediately became the main “feature” of the village, next to which every tourist must take a photo. The king fish is made skillfully and subtly: every comb, thin antennae and even pupils are visible. The pedestal for the sturgeon is an irregularly shaped stone, which makes the composition even more natural.

The author of the project was Gennady Belyaevsky. During his work, he visited the sturgeon and trout farm many times, talked with fishermen and read online articles about sturgeon in order to display the beauty of this fish. A responsible and creative approach gave the desired result - “Sturgeon” is one of Dolzhanskaya’s main decorations.

The role of prey is played by the huntsman, galloping ahead of the hunters. Attached to his costume is a real fox tail, which will be given to the winner as a trophy.

The Cossack costumes that all participants in the hunt wear add spice to this entertainment. In such events, the features of the Cossack spirit are fully manifested: daring, excitement, courage and a pinch of recklessness.

It is no less interesting to watch the “Cossack Games”, during which horsemen perform difficult jumps on horses, organize horse fights, chop vines and kidnap Kuban beauties. During the summer season, swimming with horses is also organized.
