Temryuk
Temryuk, a town in
Russia's Krasnodar Krai, rests on the Taman Peninsula near the Black Sea. This region boasts a rich history, evident in
the area's gradual transformation from a Tatar fortress (Tumnev) to a Genoese
settlement, and finally to a Cossack town in the 19th century. Temryuk's unique landscape is another
fascinating aspect. The town is situated
amid mud volcanoes and on the banks of the Kuban River, which flows
into the nearby Temryuk Bay. The seaport itself lies
a few kilometers away from the town center.

town's history at the Temryuk Historical Archaeological Museum, showcasing artifacts
