St. Catherine's Cathedral

Reviewed By harryatkck - Kansas City, United States

The cathedral was built in honor of Catherine the Great of Russia. The grounds have several beds of flowers & there are other monuments & buildings to see. The inside is very beautiful. The grave of Grigory Potemkin is also inside the cathedral. He was a consort of Catherine the Great & started the Black Sea Fleet in Kherson in 1778. This is worth a visit.

Biosphere Reserve Askania-Nova in the name of F.E. Falz-Fein

Reviewed By juliapM7130TB - Kyiv (Kiev), Ukraine

Amazing huge territory consists of 3 zones - 1) open steppe where you can take a safari and just be among animals which are located free of any caves. You can feed them and communicate with them. Second zone is a huge zoo. And there is a dendron-park. So in order to visit everything you would need a full day. The problem is that the place is from post-soviet times so there is no necessary infrastructure. The toilette is awful, the car for safari is very old. There is no bar, cafe or restaurant there on the territory. But there is a small village exactly next to the Reserve where there are hotel and cafes but we don't know what the level is. We've just had safari. The nature is so amazing and the emotions are so great that you do not pay attention to the absence of infrastructure. The tour guide was truly great - Olga Andreevna. Please take with you pieces of apples, carrot and bread in order to feed the animals (you won't be able to buy this stuff there on the place.

Park of Glory (Park Slavy)

Reviewed By harryatkck - Kansas City, United States

The park is dedicated to the WW II liberators of Kherson. There are several plaques in the park that contain information on how the Soviets eventually defeated the Germans in WW II. There is also a great view of the Dnieper River here. This is one of the better Soviet memorials I have visited.
