Borschtbelt might refer to
Borscht Belt, or Jewish Alps, is a nickname for the (now mostly defunct) summer resorts of the Catskill Mountains in parts of Sullivan, Orange, and Ulster counties in New York. Borscht, a soup associated with immigrants from eastern Europe, was a colloquialism for "Jewish". These resorts were a popular vacation spot for New York City Jews between the 1920s and the 1970s. * Most Borscht Belt resorts hosted traveling Jewish comedians and musicians, and many who later became famous began their careers there. * The tradition of Borscht Belt entertainment started in the early twentieth century with the indoor and outdoor theaters constructed on a 40-acre (16-hectare) tract in Hunter, New York, by Yiddish theater star Boris Thomashefsky.The 1987 films Dirty Dancing and Sweet Lorraine, as well as the second season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, reflect on this bygone era. * Beginning in the 1980s, the growth of air travel made the Catskills less attractive, so many of the resorts eventually closed, although Jewish culture has remained present. A large percentage of the region comprises summer homes and bungalow colonies (including many of the historic colonies) for Orthodox Jewish families, primarily from the New York metropolitan area, as well as year-round dwellers. * Resorts still are operating in the region, including Villa Roma, an Italian American resort, Soyuzivka and Xenia, Ukrainian cultural resorts, and the Skazka and Hotel Pine, Russian cultural resorts. * Additionally, motorsports enthusiasts are drawn to the area visiting the Monticello Motor Club.*
