Gelendzhik, Resort town in Krasnodar Krai, Russia
Gelendzhik extends for 102 kilometers along the Black Sea coast, featuring numerous beaches and a maritime climate suitable for summer recreation.
The area started as a Greek outpost called Torikos, later became known as Pagrae during Roman times, and was established as a Russian settlement in 1831.
The city name derives from Turkish language meaning little bride, reflecting the historical presence of different cultures in this Black Sea region.
