Hero City
Karyn Planett
Well, it’s spelled lots of ways, but “Novorossiysk” is a Russian seaport wedged almost between the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
Awarded the title of “Hero City,” it’s thick with statues, monuments, memorials, the Square of Heroes, and tons more we tried to see. Even at a breakneck pace we barely had enough time to sample the Black Sea oysters and Russian vodka.
