Canğul (Russian and Ukrainian: Джангуль, romanized: Dzhangul), officially known in Russia as the Canğul landslide coast (Russian: Джангу́льское о́ползневое побере́жье, romanized: Dzhangulskoye opolznevoye poberezhye; Ukrainian: Джангульське оползневе узбережжя, romanized: Dzhangulske opolzneve uzberezhzhia; Crimean Tatar: Canğul yer yılışuvlı yalısı) is a coast and regional nature reserve (zakaznik) located on the Tarkhankut Peninsula in Crimea, a peninsula internationally recognised as part of Ukraine but occupied by Russia since 2014.
Located on the Tarkhankut Peninsula, Canğul is known for its steep cliffs stretching up to 60 m (200 ft), several limestone formations, and frequent landslides.
In terms of flora, the coast is dominated primarily by herbs and shrubbery, though a variety of flowers bloom during the spring.
[1] The name of Canğul is derived from a Persian term from the Middle Ages, literally meaning "soul of the flower".
[4] In 2005, the Sirius, a Russian-registered ship travelling from Yeysk to Turkey, partially sank after colliding with a rock formation off Canğul.
