Stavropol Virág (Helyi Virágbolt)

Being well-known for Russians and people worldwide as the place where the first Soviet president and the leader of the Communist party Mr. Mikhail Gorbachev hailed from and started his career in politics, Stavropol’, or literally “the city of the Cross” in Greek, is almost the biggest Russian city in the North Caucasus. Few barely know that this administrative center of the Stavropol’ Krai is not only the gates to the majestic mountain summits and crystal clear streams, but it is an equidistant point from the sultry Equator and the aurora of the North Pole. That is why Stavropol’ is famous for its street named ‘the 45th Parallel’.
You do not have to worry about an escape from the hustle and the bustle of a big city. The Central Park, as well as the local botanical garden named after Vasiliy Skripchinskiy, is the right place for you to take a certainly memorable and invigorating stroll. Don’t be surprised if you run into quite a lot of newlyweds there. Countless roses around, a bunch of roses in the hands of brides, rose petals and a fragrant, heady aroma in the air… The fleeting beauty of this rose paradise is second to none! Alas, it is not a year-round pleasure too. The local people are certain that these remarkable sights are worth visiting on one of their happiest days in the whole life.
