    - Только хорошие впечатления!
    Saturday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Speciality Museums
    
    
    Как добраться к музею спрашивайте у людей на улицах. Либо просто сверните с трассы направо и идите все время прямо, пока не увидите музей (его сложно пропустить))
    Экскурсовод - очень милая женщина! Интересно рассказала историю Леси (Ларисы) и ее семьи, а так же ответила на все-все вопросы. Не экономьте на экскурсии, она того стоит!
    Понравилось панно с "Лесной песней". Да и вообще весь музей великолепен!
    Домики Леси и ее родителей требуют отдельного рассмотрения. За них нужно платить платить отдельно, но плата символическая (вроде по 5 грн. за каждый).
    И приезжайте пораньше, потому что экскурсия долгая и увлекательная) See more..

27. 4.5 Assumption Church St. Anne (3 reviews)
    - Impressive. Wooden. Fortified. Acting.
    Spent < 1 hour Religious Sites • Churches & Cathedrals
    
    
    Impressive large wooden St.Anna's cathedral of 1771, relocated from Vyshenky village in some 60km south-east from Kovel, was the main reason for my road trip to this otherwise not-too-impressive town, mostly known as a busy railway hub. In the course of relocation, the cathedral was restored, yet again in its long history. So unlike many wooden churches in Ukraine, it’s in amazingly good condition now. And it is definitely one of the best, if not the top, things to see in Kovel. A rare sample of two-tower wooden cathedrals, one of the oldest in town, one of the largest in the area, and just amazingly scenic. You don’t come across with such wooden sacral architecture in large Ukrainian cities too often, except in Skansens perhaps, which are akin to rural theme-parks, in my eyes. For fine photo-opportunity of the façade and towers, better come here in the afternoon. Before noon, the frontispiece is in the front-lighting. At the same time, the cathedral’s structure is best perceptible from its sides. The architecture in general is rather simple, but side contreforts make St.Anna’s seem like a fortified point. Such type of exterior is more typical to stone cathedrals, which makes this wooden one so special. Unfortunately, there was an ugly building erected right behind the cathedral, which has largely ruined St.Anna’s fine lofty appearance. There once was a bus depot at a place, where the cathedral was relocated to, so there’s plenty of space around; it’s not squeezed in between the houses. That spacious open air made me feel like a little part of the village was relocated here, too, to preserve the spirit. The territory is very well kept, with lots of greenery and flowers and comfortable paved tracks. St.Anna is an acting rome-catholic cathedral, with services in Ukrainian and Polish. But it is a pleasure to just stay here for a while, even if you are not religious. There's no hassle at all. See more..

    - Настоящий курорт
    4WD, ATV & Off-Road Tours • Bike Tours • Boat Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Kayaking & Canoeing
    
    
    В сезон на Свитязе отличный движ - музыка играет (ненавязчиво), волейбольные и футбольные площадки, прокат разных катамаранов. Главный пляж приятно окультурен. Слегка раздражает множество бродячих торговцев съестным, но и они создают колорит :)
    Вообщем есть ощущение настоящего курорта и праздника.
    По воде можно идти чуть ли не километр, рай для маленьких детей. See more..
