Sevastopol panorama


Panoramas of famous battles usually depicted in 'the round' were a feature of early historical tourism. One of the most fascinating is the one depicting the siege in the Crimea from the Russian perspective - showing some of the more famous events and characters. This article in English shows some great views and explains all. Recommended.
