The Lviv Theater of Opera and Ballet is one of the most beautiful buildings in Ukraine. This is the second oldest theatre that was built in Ukraine. The theater was built between 1897 and 1900. It is interesting that the avenue where the Lviv Opera theatre stands didn’t exist until 1879. It is stands on the location where the now hidden river Poltva once ran (and is now buried deep underground). In my opinion…
People in Turkey say that Pamukkale is the eighth wonder of the world. Although, other than Turks, Ukrainians, and Russians, not many people have even heard about this place. And if with Turkish people it is understandable, for Ukrainians and Russians I need to give a small explanation. It is quite simple that for my country, which is Ukraine, Turkey is one of the most popular spots to vacation. It is warm, beautiful, the flight…
One of the must visit places in Turkey is the ancient city of Ephesus. This is one of the best preserved Greco-Roman cities I have seen in my life and I have been to Greece and Italy many times. Ephesus, to me, is a new understanding of how the cities looked like thousands of years ago. If you know something about the seven wonders of the Ancient World you would know that there is…

When visiting Pamukkale many people don’t really care about where they lodge. In fact, many people only come to Pamukkale as part of a day trip to see the famous travertine terraces. We, however, decided to spend two nights in this little town as we aimed at getting into Heiropolis and the pools right when it opens. Thus we had to take on the mission of finding a hotel for our stay. This review…
Ephesus is an ancient city that is located next to the modern city of Selçuk. The ruins of this Greco-Roman city are very well preserved and worthy of a visit while travelling around Turkey.

Kaleiçi, the historic center of Antalya, is a beautiful port city on the Mediterranean. Pronounced Kah-Lay-Chi, the city has a rich history dating back to Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire, and until recently was entirely contained within the old walls. My favorite thing to do in Kaleiçi, Antalya is to simply wander down the cobbled streets and get lost in the maze of stone houses, parks, cafes, and viewpoints. In…
When people think of visiting Ukraine, Kherson (6 things to do in Kherson) is rarely on their lists. And to be honest, the city doesn’t offer much.
