Kadykovka is a district of Balaklava, located on both sides of the city's main street, Novikov Street. In the past, it was a suburb of Balaklava - the village of Kady-Koy ("Village of the Judge"). The remains of a Roman military camp were discovered on the territory of Kadykivka (between 40th Anniversary of October, Novikova, Raketna streets and 40th Anniversary of October Square), dating from the second - first third of the third century.
