Alley on Lenin Avenue in Kislovodsk: A New Pedestrian Zone for Evening Walks

Overview and Is It Worth Visiting

The Alley on Lenin Avenue is a completely pedestrian zone stretching 370 meters. It is located in the historic part of the city, but away from the main tourist center (the main tourist street is Kurortnaya). If you're staying in the northern part of Kislovodsk, where many new hotels and sanatoriums are located, the alley will be an excellent place for daily evening walks.

In our opinion, it's worth coming here at least for one evening, even if you're staying in another district. Here you'll find:

• Beautiful evening lighting and working fountains
• Several bronze sculptures, including some very amusing ones
• A spring with three types of mineral water — narzan, slavyanovskaya, and yessentuki
• Nearby is the Cascade Staircase and the entrance to Kislovodsk Park
• There are cafes and fast-food kiosks

Among the sculptures, the "Pissing Dog" stands out — a funny bronze figure that brings a smile to passersby. Also installed here are the sculptural composition "Carriage with Coachman" and a monument to the signing of the rescript by Alexander I on the creation of the resort city.

A new spring, the Rebrovsky spring, has opened on the alley, where you can collect mineral water for free — narzan, slavyanovskaya, and yessentuki.

Next to the alley is the Cascade Staircase, through which you can enter the Kislovodsk National Park. This is convenient if you want to continue your walk.

Honestly, this isn't a top-tier attraction worth going to this district specifically for. But if you're staying in the northern part of the city or have a free evening, be sure to take a stroll here. Especially since everything is free, and in the evening with the lighting and fountains, it's very cozy.
