Most visitors to Ukraine will start their travels in Kiev, the country’s capital. The country enjoys a great mixture of old and new and has been strongly influenced by both Western and European customs. Kiev is primarily a modern city, but it boasts many fine older attractions such as the St Sophia Cathedral and Monastery which was built in the 11th century. The city is somewhat cosmopolitan due to the large number of students from other parts of the world who have taken up residency here. Kiev also has a lot to see and do and you will be able to spend days here just enjoying the sights and taking in the culture.
Yalta began life as an ancient Greek colony. Situated on the Black Sea on the southern tip of the Crimea, Yalta is popular with vacationers due to its mild climate and stunning, wooded surrounds. Besides vineyards and orchards, Yalta also has lush green areas and rugged beaches. It is primarily a resort area where a number of towns and cities are clustered together to make good use of the climate. Apart from simply enjoying the climate and landscape, visitors to Yalta can enjoy a number of restaurants, cafes, bars and night clubs as well as a few live performances and a number of great shops.
A world away from the tranquillity of Yalta, Odessa is Ukraine’s 5th largest city. Its architecture has been strongly influenced by French and Italian styles and visitors can be forgiven for feeling that the town looks a bit odd in the midst of Ukraine. Coupled with the architecture are warm beaches, great weather and well shaded streets and squares. Odessa enjoys a thriving economy and is a centre for industry, science and culture. It has unlimited opportunities for the average tourist and is a great place to spend a holiday.
