Their thermal waters, therapeutic springs and mud have rejuvenated millions of people. Among the first Russians to be treated with these waters were soldiers of the Caucasus line. The first Caucasus mineral sanatorium was built in 1803.

Stavropol Krai has more to offer than Cossacks and health resorts. Archeologists have discovered 20 settlements and towns here, some of which are more than three thousand years old. The traditional life in Stavropol is associated with vine growing and wine making. On the slopes of the Mashuk hill is a modest monument commemorating the duel fought by the writer Mikhail Lermontov.

Stavropol is a land of mountains, ancient fortresses, the first Russian resorts and Cossack villages spread out at the bottom of the former Sarmatian sea. The first Cossacks — Terek and Kuban — settled in the Stavropol region in the second half of the 18th century without the approval of state authorities, as was the way of the Cossacks.

Stavropol means “cross”. The name is explained in different ways. According to one story, a cruciform stone was dug up during the construction of the fortress that would bear the Stavropol name. According to another story, the fortress was marked on a map with a cross to distinguish it from other forts on the Azov-Mozdok line. In any case, an image of the cross is now on Stavropol’s flag and coat of arms.

It is a rich agricultural area and the traditional home of the Kuban Cossack group. Many people died here during the forced collectivization in the 1920s and 1930s.

The Kuban steppe is one of the major steppes in Europe, located in between the city of Rostov on Don and the Caucasus Mountains. It is named after Kuban River which flows through it. The Kuban flows mostly through Krasnodar Krai for 660 kilometers (410 miles) but also in the Karachay–Cherkess Republic, Stavropol Krai and the Republic of Adygea. The Kuban flows 870 kilometers (540 mi) north and west from its source near Mount Elbrus in the Caucasus Mountains, eventually reaching Temryuk Bay in the Sea of Azov.

The Kuabn Steppe is part of the Great Eurasian steppe that stretches from Mongolia and the Great Wall of China in the east to Hungary and the Danube River in the west. It is bounded by the taiga forest of Russia to the north and by desert and mountains to the south. It is located at about same latitude as the American plains and embraces a dozen countries, including Russia, China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrzgzstan and several other former Soviet Republics.

Describing the steppes, Polish Nobel laureate Henry Sienkiewicz wrote in With Fire and Sword, "The steppes are wholly desolate and unpeopled yet filled living menace. Silent and still yet seething with hidden violence, peaceful in their immensity yet infinitely dangerous, these boundless spaces were a masterless, untamed country created foe ruthless men who acknowledge no one as their overlord." Steppes are covered mostly by sparse grass or grasses and shrubs such as saxual. Trees are often stunted. Large trunks, branches and leaves require a lot of water to maintain. When the steppes meet the foot foothills, you can find wild poppies, even wild opium poppies.

Today they are visited mostly by middle class holidaymakers and workers who still have Soviet-era holiday privileges.

Known in Russian as Kavkazskie Mineralnye Vody (Caucasus Mineral waters), the region boasts 130 hot and cold mineral springs and the luxurious spas, elegant hotels, parks, gardens and recreation facilities that accompany them.

There are four main spa towns —Kislovodsk, Yessentuki, Pyatigorsk and Zhelznovodsk, each with its own Intourist hotel — plus the transportation hub and industrial town of Mineralnye Vody. The whole area is associated with Romantic writer Mikhail Lemontov who set some of his stories here and was killed in a duel in Pyatigorsk in 1841. He is regarded as Russia’s second greatest poet after Pushkin.

Generally, each spa is associated with a different ailment. In most cases you are supposed to drink the water rather than bath in it to receive its benefits. In some cases you can walk in off the street and enter a building called an “istochnik” ("spring") and drink the water, but in most cases you need a pass which is only given to those staying at the sanatoria. The most famous spas are Narzan Baths at Kislovodsk and the Lemontov Baths at Pyatigorsk. The spas around Lake Tambukan offer silt mud baths. In Stavropol Krai there are more than 120 sources of natural balneal and drinking mineral water. There are mud springs with therapeutic mud.

Pyatigorsk (160 kilometers southeast of Stavropol) is regarded as the capital of the spa region. Located at an elevation of 550 meters and sitting below 993-meter high Mt. Mashuk and 1,401-meter-high Beshtau, it was founded in 1780 and is home to 110,000 people. Pyatigorsk is a pleasant place full of trees and fine views of mountains. Many of the springs are warm (over 60 degrees C) and have a relatively high sulfur content. There are lots of hiking, skiing and mountaineering opportunities. Horse races are held twice a week and classical music concerts are regularly held.

Activities and attractions include the cable car ride to the conical summit of Mt. Mashuk; the Aeolian Harp preservation point; Lemontov's Grotto, a small cave visited by the writer; the Academic Art Galley,; the Spa Exhibition; and Prival, a cave open to the sky where a couple used to dance on a bridge above a pond. A monument marks the spot where Lermontov died in the duel. The Central Flower Park contains the glass-and-metal Lermontov Gallery, a small artificial cave called Diana's Grotto, an eagle sculpture and Chinese pavilion. Elsewhere in town you can find the Spa Research Institute, the Regional Museum and the Lermontov Statue and Museum.

Eagle Sculpture is a famous symbol of the Caucasus Mineral Waters. The bronze eagle with a snake in its claws represents health-improving qualities of the waters. After having been bitten by the poisonous snake, the dying eagle falls into a mineral spring and is brought back to life.

Aeolian Harp (“Eolova Arfa”): An Aeolian harp (also wind harp) is a musical instrument that is played by the wind. Named for Aeolus, the ancient Greek god of the wind, the traditional Aeolian harp is essentially a wooden box including a sounding board, with strings stretched lengthwise across two bridges. The one in Pyatigorsk was built on Mashuk mountain and has a round arbor with columns. Designed by the Bernardazzi brothers architects at the beginning of the 1830s, the harp consists of a wooden case with two harps and stone floor. Under the influence of a wind the vane rotates and produces musical sounds. Now the Aeolian harp is equipped with an electromusical instrument.

It contains a Cossack hut, watchtower and Cossack fortification. There are also theater performances by folklore groups and workshops featuring Cossack crafts.

Place Associated with Mikhail Lermontov and His Death in a Duel

The famous Russian writer Mikhail Lermontov lived in Pyatigorsk and was killed in a duel there The Lermontov State Museum-reserve was founded in 1912. The Lermontov quarter contains houses preserved in their original form that the poet visited and lived in. The most famous is a house with a reed roof, where Lermontov lived the last two months of his life. Places mentioned Lermontov in his poetry include the “Princess Mary” gazebo “Aeolian harp” on mount Mashuk, Elizabethan spring (the present-day center of resort life), Lermontov Grotto (where the poet painted “View of Pyatigorsk”), Cave “Failure” with the famous lake and the rock on which the “Hero of Our Time” were shot by Grushnitsky and Pechorin and the place where Lermontov and Nikolai Martynov fought their duel. The “Tour of Lermontov places Pyatigorsk” stops at these places.

A monument marks the spot where Lermontov died in the duel with Martynov. After visiting Moscow, on May 9, 1841,Lermontov arrived to Stavropol, introduced himself to general Grabbe and asked for permission to stay in the town. Then, on a whim, he changed his course, found himself in Pyatigorsk and sent his seniors a letter informing them of his having fallen ill. The regiment's special commission recommended him treatment at Mineralnye Vody. What he did instead was embark upon the several weeks” spree. “In the mornings he was writing, but the more he worked, the more need he felt to unwind in the evenings,” Skabichevsky wrote. “I feel I'm left with very little of my life,” the poet confessed to his friend A.Merinsky on July 8, a week before his death.

In Pyatigorsk Lermontov enjoyed himself, feeding on his notoriety of a social misfit, his fame of a poet second only to Pushkin and his success with A Hero of Our Time. Meanwhile, in the same salons his Cadet school friend Nikolai Martynov, dressed as a native Circassian, wore a long sword, affected the manners of a romantic hero not unlike Lermontov's Grushnitsky character. Lermontov teased Martynov mercilessly until the latter couldn't stand it anymore. On July 25, 1841 Martynov challenged his offender to a duel. The fight took place two days later at the foot of Mashuk mountain. Lermontov allegedly made it known that he was going to shoot into the air. Martynov was the first to shoot and he aimed straight into the heart, killing his opponent on the spot. On July 30 Lermontov was buried, without military honours, thousands of people attending the ceremony.
