The City Garden of Makhachkala overlooks Rodobsky Boulevard, which is called the Embankment of Makhachkala. It is located near the shore of the Caspian Sea, but is separated from it by railway tracks. The city was founded in 1844 as a port on the Caspian Sea. The railway, which was built in the second half of the 19th century, was decided to make directly along the seashore. From Rodopsky Boulevard, you can walk through an underground passage to the City Beach.
