id: 10044452

Kanev
Kanev is a small town in the Cherkasy region. It is mainly known for the fact that the Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko is buried there. The city is small, but cozy – quiet streets, clean air, clean beaches and a huge nature reserve nearby. In Kanev, the banks of the Dnieper are perfectly equipped – there are many paid and free equipped beaches, gazebos and other places to relax.

Chernihiv
One of the oldest cities in Ukraine, Chernihiv in 907 was the second largest after Kiev. Today it is a small town a couple of hours away from the capital – very convenient for those who sometimes need to visit Kiev, but do not want to live among the hustle and bustle. The city has several good restaurants, an ancient monastery with caves and huge parks.

Zholkva
Traditional tourist places in Western Ukraine, such as Lviv or Ternopil, are not suitable for a quiet life – there are too many tourists. But small towns like Zholkva are much more convenient – the architecture is just as beautiful, and the prices are much nicer. It is interesting that Zholkva was built according to the so-called concept of the ideal city, as it was seen by the Italian architects of the Renaissance. Because of this, the streets of the city are located unusually – it is worth a look.

Dzembronya
In the Ivano-Frankivsk region, the highest mountain village of Ukraine – Dzembronya-is lost in the clouds. It is best suited for a quiet holiday – there are only 300 people of the population, several hotels and guest houses. The most interesting thing about this village is the views around it, which may well rival the slopes of the Alps or the mountain ranges in Norway.

Vorokhta
A perfect compromise between wild villages without infrastructure and thoroughly touristy cities where authenticity has been sacrificed for the sake of money. In addition to the scenery, the ascent to Hoverla and the Carpathian forests, you can see the longest viaducts in Ukraine and the mountain lake with the romantic name Nesamovite-there are dozens of interesting legends about it.

Karolino-Bugaz
A small resort village near Odessa for those who want to spend the summer near the sea and in silence. Karolino-Bugaz is closely bordered by the more famous Zatoka, but there are fewer tourists here. Wide beaches, clear sea and quiet life of a small village-ideal for those who are tired of the noise of big cities.

Chernomorsk
The exact opposite of the previous point. Chernomorsk (formerly Ilyichevsk) is a young town not far from Odessa, which is full of life. There are many restaurants and cafes, as well as a clean and beautiful beach, which even received a "blue flag" (only beaches that meet several dozen criteria, such as cleanliness, environmental friendliness, and equipment, can get it.
