Windmills in Vodyanyky
The complex of ancient windmills in the village of Vodianyky, Cherkasy region, is almost identical to the famous windmills in Kinderdijk near Rotterdam.
Thanks to its good location, tourists can also visit the Buksky Canyon, one of the most beautiful places in central Ukraine. The Hirsky Tikych River flows through here, surrounded by high rocky banks. This unique area, characteristic of steppe Ukraine, is often called “little Switzerland” for its incredible scenery and natural beauty.
Plebaniv Viaduct
In the Ternopil region, near the village of Plebanivka, there is an impressive railway viaduct. Built in the 19th century by the Austro-Hungarians, it consists of nine stone arches. A similar viaduct is located in the Scottish village of Glenfinnan and became famous thanks to the Harry Potter films, where the Hogwarts Express rushed along it.
The Plebanivskyi Viaduct attracts tourists with its majesty, power and cinematic beauty. Today it is the hallmark of the city of Terebovlia. Fascinating excursions and cycling routes are organized here, allowing you to enjoy not only the architectural beauty of the viaduct, but also the picturesque surroundings of the region.

Lake Synevyr
The famous Synevyr Lake in the Zakarpattia region is one of the main symbols of the Ukrainian Carpathians. It is located at an altitude of almost 1,000 meters above sea level and is surrounded by centuries-old spruce and pine trees. The lake is also surrounded by mystical stories and legends that add to its special appeal.
Similar in beauty and mystery to Synevyr is the Green Lake in Austria, located among the alpine mountains and forests near the town of Trages. This lake, also called the park under water, is known for the fact that its water level rises only in certain months, flooding the valley. Then divers from all over the world come to the lake to swim among the flooded benches, shrubs and trees, which creates unique underwater landscapes.
The main reason to visit Synevyr is its beauty and clean mountain air, but there are several other interesting things to do here. For example, you can order a horseback ride, a photo shoot, go rafting or cycling, and taste real mineral water, which has a good effect on the gastrointestinal tract. Every year in August, the All-Ukrainian festival “Trembitas Call to Synevyr” is held on the banks of the Synevyr.
