Caucasian Mineral Waters is a resort area located in the very center of the North Caucasus, on the northern slopes of the Main Caucasian Range, just 90 km from Elbrus and almost at the same distance between the Black and Caspian Seas. It occupies the southern part of the Stavropol Territory of Russia, being approximately at the same latitude as the resorts of the French Riviera and the Italian Adriatic. Its area is about 2/3 of the area of the island of Cyprus and 1/7 of the area of Switzerland. The Caucasian Mineralnye Vody resort group includes Kislovodsk, Essentuki, Zheleznovodsk and Pyatigorsk. These are small towns comparable in size to such European spa centers as Karlovy Vary and Baden-Baden. All of them are located close to each other and form a single resort area. The official history of the Caucasian Mineral Waters begins on April 24, 1803, when Tsar Alexander I signed a decree recognizing this region as state property. Since that time, settlements began to appear near the springs: Goryachevodsk (since 1830 Pyatigorsk), Kislovodsk, Essentuki, Zheleznovodsk.
