Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi
The Lopukhin-Demidovs' estate is a vivid example of how a person can interact harmoniously with nature. Here, the majestic branches of the Ros River, rocky rapids and Mount Yantalka are perfectly complemented by an oriental-style palace, cosy manor houses, elegant bridges and picturesque parks.

Karashyna
The village of Karashyna is located near Korsun-Shevenkivskyi, where you should definitely visit for the long suspension bridge over the Ros, the cute weather station house on the rock, and the Fourth Noise rapids, one of the most turbulent obstacles on this river.

Smila
There are many attractions and interesting cities in the Cherkasy region. One of them is Smila, where you can see several old buildings that in the current district centre remind you of the patriarchal town of the Cherkasy district.
These include the local history museum, the Intercession Cathedral and the Church of the Assumption.
Kholodnyi Yar
Nature and history lovers should make a stop at Kholodnyi Yar, a historic forest in the Cherkasy region. This place is associated with the struggle of the Ukrainian people for independence, starting with the Cossacks and ending with the partisans of the Second World War. Here you can see the famous Kalnyshevsky Church, the Maksym Zalizniak Oak, and enjoy walks along the shady forest paths.
Alexandria
In the centre of Oleksandriia, you can see how the county town looked like in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The buildings of the men's and women's gymnasiums, a Jewish school, a theatre, a school, a city administration and merchant houses have been preserved here. However, the firehouse with a tower decorated with a clock stands out the most.
