Welcome to the real life Soviet Atlantis where algae covered busts of Lenin loom from the depths of the sea-bottom. The underwater museum at Cape Tarkhankut is in the westernmost point of the Crimean peninsula and was created by diver Vladimir Borumensky. After the fall of the Soviet Union, thousands of busts of former communist figureheads were thrown away, so Vladimir created the "Alley of Leaders" with similar Lenin, Stalin and Karl Marx busts. The museum has expanded over the last 20 years, and currently includes more than 50 sculptures, including copies of the London Tower Bridge, Eiffel Tower, and a real life wind turbine. These pictures were taken by Russian photographer Andrey Nekrasov in the Black Sea in Crimea, Ukraine.
