Ukraine occupies 8th place in Europe by the number of tourists
visiting, according to the World Tourism Organization rankings.
Ukraine is a destination on the crossroads between central and eastern
Europe, between north and south. It has mountain ranges – the Carpathian
Mountains suitable for skiing, hiking, fishing and hunting. The coastline on
the Black Sea is a popular summer destination for vacationers. Ukraine has
vineyards where they produce native wines, ruins of ancient
castles, historical parks, Orthodox and Catholic churches as well as a few
mosques and synagogues. Kyiv, the country’s capital city has many unique
structures such as Saint Sophia Cathedral and broad boulevards. There are
other cities well-known to tourists such as the harbour town Odessa and the
old city of Lviv in the west. The Crimea, a little “continent” of its own, is a
popular vacation destination for tourists for swimming or sun tanning on the
Black Sea with its warm climate, rugged mountains, plateaus and ancient
ruins. Visitors can also take cruise tours by ship on Dnieper River from Kiev
to the Black Sea coastline.
