In the center of staraya Gagra there is a local landmark - an Openwork colonnade.
On the one hand, the square with a colonnade overlooks the avenue , and on the other - the Seaside Park and immediately the descent to the sea .
This structure consists of four snow-white towers and beautiful openwork arcades , between the arcades there are columns , columns - 45 .
The number 45 is symbolic , as this building is dedicated to the Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1945 .
The arches of the Colonnade are very elegant , there is evening illumination.
There is a fountain on the square in front of the colonnade.
There is a pedestal in the center of the fountain , which is crowned by a sculpture of a pigeon .
Across the street is the former Gagra cinema, where the film ‘Winter Evening in Gagra " was shot.
From a distance , he looks decent , but when we approached him , I was upset , the building is in a very neglected state , the area around is unkempt .
But I recommend taking a walk on the square in front of the colonnade and meeting the sunset .

The location is interesting for those who like to take photos from a vacation in the style of a "diamond hand")). The colonnade is an element of ancient architectural art. A series of columns united by a single element on top. There are many objects in Abkhazia made in the classical style, the colonnade is in particularly good condition, the reconstruction and restoration of the object has been carried out. Unfortunately, many wonderful buildings, including those of cultural and historical value, are half-abandoned, in a dilapidated state.

The place is familiar from childhood. Nothing new has been built in Abkhazia. What was built by the hands of Soviet people was not preserved. There are a couple of familiar places from which Abkhazia feeds, they are maintained in a more or less adequate condition. What is striking is what was done under Soviet rule and repaired by independence. So, during the Soviet era, sidewalks, stairs, building plinths and facades were built from natural, hewn stone, and now everything is made of Dechman decorative concrete and the same poor tiles. There is a lot of cheap plastic in the finishes. They ground it up, they don't want to work, they exploit the remnants of the Soviet era. It's a pity, nature is heavenly, lazy people got it.

The business card of the Old Gagra. Clean, not a speck, a lot of tourists take pictures. There are palm trees nearby, such a straight southern view. There is a drinking water fountain on the right. The water, by the way, is good. We drank, we didn't catch rotavirus, although everyone was scared of it 😂

It's beautiful, of course, but you expect something more from the main attraction and business card. It's very crowded, noisy, cars, taxi drivers.. but the park is wonderful, green, well-groomed, beautiful.. It was recently restored with Moscow (or just Russian, I don't remember) money, it's a pleasure to walk. Just don't forget - you can't pay with a card almost anywhere, cash or transfer.

Quite an iconic and interesting landmark of Gagra.
The colonnade is located on the Seaside embankment of Staraya Gagra. The white pillars and the arcade of the colonnade organically harmonize with the greenery of palm trees, gray pebbles and turquoise of the sea on a warm autumn day. And in a storm, the colonnade looks gorgeous against the background of a raging wave and a leaden sky.
The colonnade has a fountain. The backlight works at night. In the evenings, artists perform with live music. They offer to take pictures with exotic bird species. Nearby there are many cafes and a walking area, several beaches.
In general, I really liked this attraction. I recommend you to visit.

Gagra is a famous resort town. Sunsets over the sea are always beautiful, and among the palm trees. It 's incredibly beautiful ! When you see the colonnade and the sunset over the sea, you remember the movie "Winter Evening in Gagra". The colonnade has 45 columns and 8 snow-white arches in front of which stands a fountain decorated with a dove in the center - as a symbol of peace and victory in the Great Patriotic War.

Beautiful place, clean beach, much better than Pitsunda! We were traveling from Sochi to see Abkhazia, in the end it would be better to stop in Gagra! But we were carried to Pitsunda, and then to the Ritz, in general, I do not advise you to go anywhere, stay in Gagra! Abkhazians remained at the level of development of the 90s

Gagra. Old town. A snow-white colonnade with a fountain. A very beautiful and extremely exquisite architectural structure. You can look at intricate columns and arched patterns for a long time, watch and touch this man-made work with fascination. The business card of the city of Gagra. You can make a date here...a meeting... or just relax by the fountain, take beautiful photos. It offers a view of the endless sea and beaches with white stones. You can walk along the embankment or turn into the Seaside Park. Impressions and emotions can be obtained before the next vacation.

Annoying animators with their own attribute ruined the whole mood.
It is very unpleasant when you are walking with your family and children and these under-actors run up to you and start forcing you to try on their national clothes, grab their hands and the like. It almost came to a fight. Be careful. They put clothes on first, you take photos, and then they demand money from you for clothes, and they really demand it.
