Gate of Love, Cable Car and the Observation Deck on Mashuk Mountain

Other places
Directions

Mashuk Mountain in Pyatigorsk rises to 993 meters above the sea level. One can climb at its top in just three minutes by the Cable Car, which has been operating since 1971. In addition to the two stations, there are no supports all the way. Two closed cabins for 20 people always move at the same time to meet each other on a steel cable.

People climb to the top of Mashuk Mountain for the observation deck with a panoramic view of Pyatigorsk and the mountains of the Caucasus Mountain Range. The top of the mountain is decorated with a TV tower, which received dynamic illumination in 2007. In 2015 a cascade fountain appeared on the observation deck. Here there are columns with arrows indicating the direction to different cities. Anyone can beat the arrow with the name of any city. He just needs to buy a wooden pointer in the souvenir department at the station.

If one goes down from the top on foot, in the middle of the road he will meet the Gate of Love or the Gate of the Sun. This is an observation deck with a stone arch. According to the recent tradition, the newlyweds come here and the groom carries his bride through the Gate of Love.
