Ruins of the Medieval Kalamita fortress is one of the most interesting and absorbing places in the Crimea. Let’s have a tour over stone remains of the past might and then get inside the Kalamita caves.
中世紀的卡拉米塔堡壘遺址是克里米娜最有意思，最吸引人的地方。讓我們來對過去留下的石頭遺骸做次探訪，然后進一步探尋卡拉米塔石洞的內部。
這個堡壘最獨特的地方時它坐落于巖石高地上。這里曾是修道院，挖有很多小房間。第一個筑壘建于公元6-7世紀。看看這里巖石的高度，可以猜想在這里建堡壘并不容易。
The unique thing about the fortress is that it is situated on a rock plateau which used to be a monastery with numerous hollowed out cells. The first fortifications were constructed in the 6 – 7 centuries and, taking into consideration the height of the rock, it was not so easy to seize.

壕溝和一座塔。壕溝非常深，有些地方達到了3米深。從圖片上可以清晰地看到一個炮臺。以前守兵在這里阻擊進攻者。后來，土耳其入侵者將這里變為墓地。
