Tourism in Ukraine. Rest, Sport, History, Architecture

People have long been marked by curiosity and an interest in how their neighbours live. Ukraine's fortunate geopolitical position at the crossroads of trade routes fostered the development of tourism across our motherland as early as the 19th century. In our country travellers gain impressions no less vivid than abroad, but for less money. In every region you will be met with hospitality and always pointed in the right direction. We have preserved architectural monuments of various eras and styles, created all manner of national parks and arboretums, and Ukrainian cuisine is famed the world over for its uniqueness. The unchanging leaders among destinations on travellers' lists remain Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa.
