Svitiaz LakeNovember 12, 2009 – 4:05 pm
Natural wonders are not necessarily high summits or endless underground labyrinths. Volyn region in north-western Ukraine presents its own small and comfortable wonder in the depths of Svitiaz Lake. Chosen as one of Ukraine’s seven natural wonders, the lake’s blue waters hide other reasons for its fame: Svitiaz is the deepest, largest and one of the clearest lake in Ukraine Lutsk. Lubart’s castle.May 26, 2008 – 12:32 pm
The Lutsk (or Lubart’s) Castle is the main historic monument of the capital of Volyn. It is the only castle in Ukraine seen by nearly every Ukrainian, thanks to the fact that they hold its picture in their hand with every 200 hryvnas bill. The 28 meter-high Entrance Tower of Lutsk Castle was where the idea of a united Europe was voiced for the first time. And it happened in 1429 The Volyn Region. A Fairytale KaleidoscopeApril 21, 2008 – 3:35 pm
The Volyn land, though only 3.3 percent of the overall territory of Ukraine, holds a top position due to its natural beauty, historic significance and the number of prominent historic monuments (837 of them!). Add to that dense forests, crystal clear lakes, including the Shatski lakes – some of the clearest in Europe, and the wonderful hospitability of the Volyn people and you have the perfect mix for a perfect getaway |
