Vorontsovsky park, English garden in Alupka, Crimea.

Vorontsovsky Park is a garden next to a palace in Alupka on the Black Sea coast, with sloping terrain and different sections each with its own character. The site blends designed gardens with more overgrown vegetation and features several artificial lakes throughout.

The park was designed in the 1820s as part of the overall development with the palace and was meant to connect architecture with the landscape. Its design followed European garden traditions that were popular in the region at that time.

The park takes its name from Vorontsov Palace and reflects the bond between architecture and nature that shaped the region's development. Its lakes and pathways serve today as places where both visitors and locals spend time outdoors.

The park is easily reached on foot and has several entry points accessible from different areas of the nearby palace. The paths can become slippery in wet weather, so proper footwear is important.

The "Chaos" rock piles in the Upper park — Maly and Bolshoy Khaos — are heaps of tumbled stone that visitors often mistake for natural scree. The Trillby fountain, built in 1829, is said by one account to be named after Count Vorontsov's favourite dog, by another after a household spirit in a tale by Charles Nodier.
