The local winemaker, Prince Golitsyn, equipped the entrance to it, installed doors, arranged stairs for a convenient descent to the water.
The entrance to the cave is blocked by a forged lattice. Visitors can only view the grotto from the outside, because the presence of people inside is life-threatening.

The urban-type settlement Novy Svet is located on the southeastern coast of Crimea and is part of the Sudak urban district. It appeared thanks to Prince L.S. Golitsyn, who founded here at the end of the 19th century a factory of sparkling wines on the territory of his own estate. The local natural conditions made it possible to produce champagne of the highest quality using traditional technology.
This was noted by high-ranking guests of the prince, who repeatedly visited this place, which until 1912 was called Paradise (Paradise). In the same year, the settlement received its modern name, and in 1978 the status of an urban-type settlement. The area in which it is located, due to the unique natural conditions, is recognized as a biosphere reserve. This, together with other attractions, attracts many tourists here.
It was carved in 1912 in the limestones of Mount Orel overhanging the sea for the arrival of Emperor Nicholas II in these places. The trail runs high above the water. While traveling along it, there is a large grotto, in which there was once a cave monastery. A well with fresh water, cells in which collections of wines were kept have been preserved here. There are also other grottoes. A one and a half kilometer trail leads to Cape Kapchik. On it through a relic juniper grove you can go to the center of the village.
This well-known winery is located in the center of Novyi Svet. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that the production of sparkling drinks here is organized according to the classic French method of bottled champagne.
In twenty adits with a total length of seven kilometers, different varieties of wine are aged. In total, the plant annually produces a million bottles of champagne and more than 600,000 bottles of sparkling wines. During tours of the factory, tastings of different brands of champagne are organized.
Location: Chaliapin street - 1.
To receive guests, Prince Golitsyn built a house in the center of the estate in the Moorish style, which was popular in the Crimea at the beginning of the last century. With its three-story towers with crenellated roofs and the same wall with gates, this house resembles a monumental fortress.
Through gates stylized as minarets, guests entered the cozy courtyard of the building. Today this house is used for offices, housing and auxiliary premises.
Location: Lev Golitsyn street - 18.
It is located in the manor's house, where the prince's family lived. Mountains rise almost close to the building. Its façade is made in oriental style with a wooden terrace and richly carved railings. In the museum you can get acquainted with the life and work of the prince, his painstaking work on the creation of domestic champagne and wine production in the New World. In the study of the founder of the plant and in the exposition of the museum there are unique materials about famous people who visited the estate.
Location: Shalyapinskaya street - 11.
This is the name of the rock mass, which is directly adjacent to the sea, and separates the village from the city of Sudak. The only road leading to the New World runs along its southern side.
Its name in the Crimean Tatar language means "cave rock". From the southern part of the village, it enters the sea with a high wall, separating the Green and Blue bays. Before the arrival of Emperor Nicholas II in 1912, a path was built here, which later received the name of Golitsyn, and unique grottoes in the rocks. Today it is one of the most popular places for excursions.
This natural cave carved by waves in Mount Orel is sometimes called Chaliapin's Grotto or Variety Grotto. Its height reaches 30 meters, and its width is seventeen. This allowed a Christian monastery to be located here in the Middle Ages. Spring water was collected in a small well. Later, Prince Golitsyn set up a wine cellar here with stone arches that have survived to this day. For the performances of musicians, a stone stage was equipped, which is still used for its intended purpose.
In 2008, on the occasion of the 130th anniversary of the famous champagne factory, a monument to the founder of the enterprise, Prince Lev Sergeevich Golitsyn, was erected on its territory.
A brilliantly educated young aristocrat, an expert on Roman law, who spoke several foreign languages, he organized the production of champagne wines of the highest level here for the first time in Russia. He gave his knowledge and experience to the development of winemaking in the Crimea, being since 1911 the chairman of the Viticulture Committee of the Imperial Society of Agriculture of Southern Russia.
Having passed the Golitsyn grotto, along the path you can go to the shore of the Blue Bay. The blue color of the water is given by the stones overgrown with algae at the bottom of the bay. There is a legend that in ancient times pirate ships found refuge here, which is why the bay is sometimes called Robber Bay.
From the east, it is protected by the Eagle or Cave rock, and from the west by Cape Kapchik. This is also an ancient coral reef, which is a narrow cape with an isthmus. In outline, it is sometimes compared to a diving dolphin. Behind it opens the Blue Bay with the Royal Beach.
To the west of Cape Kapchik is the Deliliman or Golubaya Bay. Along the path from Cape Kapchik through a juniper grove you can get directly to the village. The bay is widely known for its beach, which was used by members of the royal family. Since then it has been called Royal. Due to the fact that it is located on the territory of the Novy Svet nature reserve, and due to the risk of collapse, its use is limited.
Among the bays of the New World, Zelenaya is the largest. The emerald green color of the water in it is associated with the peculiarities of light reflection of the sandy bottom. This is the most peaceful bay of the village. It is no coincidence that the Genoese merchants used it to shelter their merchant ships. The beach and the Green Bay embankment have a modern infrastructure that provides a comfortable stay.
In the summer of 1912, L.S. Golitsyn invited the last Russian emperor to visit his estate, which at that time was called Paradise (paradise). The emperor, who was keenly interested in the achievements of domestic production, was delighted with the quality of the wine produced and the delightful local nature.
The monument was opened to commemorate the centenary of the visit of the Russian emperor to these places. It is a full-size sculpture of the king and the great winemaker, talking at the edge of a juniper grove.
The settlement of Novyi Svet was very lucky with its location. There is also the sea in the form of the Green Bay, and rocks with grottoes and caves, and endless juniper and pine forests. All this beauty attracts thousands of tourists every year.
What can travelers see while walking around the village? It so happened that part of the natural monuments and almost all the historical sights of the Novy Svet in Crimea are associated with the name of Prince Golitsyn, the founder of the Novy Svet estate and the winery.

From its top, local residents used to watch the appearance of enemies, and today tourists, during excursions, look at huge expanses of forests and the coast from it; - The Royal Bay (Golubaya) is located between Cape Kapchik and Mount Karaul-Oba. In 1912, Nicholas II visited Prince Golitsyn and swam in the Blue Bay. Therefore, the beach and the bay itself are popularly called "royal";
