Museums in Ukraine. Rich Collections and Varied Themes

In Ukraine there are about 5 thousand museums of the most varied themes. The Ministry of Culture and Tourism owns about half a thousand museums, but far more of them exist under various departments, educational institutions and at enterprises. A great many private museum displays have been opened by collectors and at tourist locations. The map of Ukraine's museums is being replenished with new unique sites where millions of rare exhibits are kept. The largest area is occupied by the National Museum of Folk Architecture and Life in Pyrohiv.

Shabo. The Centre of Wine Culture — a Song, a Fairy Tale

Some of Ukraine's wine-making estates that I have managed to visit are very worthy agrotechnical enterprises, and I greatly enjoyed the excursions to these amazing wineries. But after the incomparable excursion to the Shabo Centre of Wine Culture, I place this super-class wine-making complex first by many measures, and what I saw and remembered I will try to recount in my own words.
