YaltaYalta is a town in the Crimea in southern Ukraine, on the north coast of the Black Sea, that was the site of the Yalta Conference. It has about 77,100 inhabitants (2004). Near Yalta is the Livadia Palace, the former summer palace of the Russian Imperial family, where the conference actually took place. Throughout the Soviet era it continued to be an important resort for the Soviet elite. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union it has, however, struggled economically. Yalta is the setting for Anton Chekov's short story The Lady With the Lap Dog. External links - http://www.yalta.com.ua/yalta_engl/index_e.html
