Odesa Region
In Odesa, you definitely should visit the Odesa Christmas Tree Museum, as well as stroll along the famous Deribasivska Street. The unique central street of Odesa gains a "new breath" in winter and fills with a unique atmosphere.
Transcarpathia
Ukraine is renowned not only for its Carpathians or capital but also for the stunning beauty of Transcarpathia. Moreover, Transcarpathia is appreciated by tourists from all over Europe for its affordable and democratic prices.
