Here is the full version of this interview • Frank truth about Abkhazia from me..., much sharper. Just 30 years ago, people stood in lines for a ticket to Pitsunda, dreamed about it in their dreams, and when they actually found themselves there, it was only in a blissful state. Today, smiling Abkhazia is returning to the tourist horizon, and although completely without the ambitions of its glorious past, but also without unnecessary pessimism. And that's true, why be sad when the Black Sea coast of this tiny country is still so azure and clean that it even makes its neighbors from Krasnodar Krai envious? The emerald cypresses and pines are still fragrant, the hosts' toasts are as eloquent as in the old days, and the wine, the magnificent Abkhazian wine, never tires of flowing as if from a cornucopia in every courtyard of this blessed country. Of course, Abkhazia has its downsides, and there are many of them. But the absence of any borders, the relative cheapness of vacations (let's be realistic, it is still inexpensive here compared to other beach countries), as well as the constantly improving infrastructure and hotel base year after year attract more and more tourists to the picturesque expanses of Abkhazia.
