Mouth to mouth from Russian tourist. 3-4 years ago, Russian tourist are not too much as nowadays.
In the end of side street have the big hotel that very popular for Russian tour. i don't know why's popular,
i think the hotel is look like a small complex and a lot of activity inside and located on the beach. Very Comfortable for tourist.
Then Guide always advise most of tourist on stay here so the most of local shop in front of the hotel are farseeing to up selling from tourist.
They upgraded and changed their product to satisfy Russian tourist such as Hotel, Guest house, Restaurant with Russian food, Massage,
Fresh Fruit shop, Shashlik stand, Kebab booth, souvenir etc.
Nowadays, Russian tourist are 98% in here, they come to stay and enjoy walking around to find some food and some shopping and someone is heading to the beach by pass this street.
So, Local people called Russian Walking Street.
