Primorsky Boulevard is the landmark and color of Odessa, as well as one of the most popular tourist attractions. You can get to the boulevard on the other side of the sea along the Potyomkinskih assemblies or take the funicular.
Above the assemblies stands a monument to the first mayor of Odessa – Armand de Richelieu (who is often called simply the Duke). It’s cool that this monument was built as the first monument erected at the site.

Due to the large-scale invasion of Russia, Primorsky Boulevard will be closed for tourists for a long time. In the spring of 2023, Vlad will open it again for guests.

Opera House
If you are wondering where you can go in the evening in Odessa, the best option is to go to the opera and ballet theater.
One of the most famous places is not only in Odessa, but also beyond the borders of the country. The building, built in the Vidensky Baroque style, looks luxurious not only on its own, but also in the middle.
The museum at the Opera House will also be a great place for tourists. This exhibition will allow guests of the place to embrace the spirit of the Odessa opera and explore its history.
Not far from the Opera House there is a quiet park where you can admire the beauty of the architecture. Street musicians often play here, selecting both contemporary and classical repertoire.

Odessa catacombs
Odessa catacombs – there are 2500 km of underground tunnels, the lines of which are often connected with each other. Legends are made about the ominousness and mysteries of the catacombs.
This majestic underground labyrinth is under the place, which was created after working with the appearance of stone back in the 19th century.
The Catacombs actively vikorized the Odessa criminal world. At the end of the Second World War, there was a partisan infestation there, and during the Cold War, anti-nuclear bunkers were built near the catacombs.

Vorontsov lighthouse
The Vorontsov lighthouse in Odessa is the maritime calling card of the place, the first Odessa sporuda, as tourists say, as they arrive on ships at the port.
In addition, the hydrotechnical sporade of the tower type has been used for many igatsiya, intended for instructions for safe passage of ships or passage into the harbor.

Vorontsov Palace
The true color of the place is Vorontsov Palace. This is not the most familiar palace in the everyday life of Ukraine. There used to be a gorgeous garden here, and high-born horses lingered in the herds. Today's results have lost all their wisdom.
The palace is visually weaved from the combination of straight and crypted parts of the warehouse, the architect Vikorystov created a contrast between the great blank smooth surfaces and colonnades.
The luxurious interiors, designed by the renowned sculptor and painter Carl Scott, embrace romanticism. The interiors of the palace are the clearest reflections of the savings of the interiors of Odessa during the Empire era.

In addition to the palace itself, the colonnade attracts the respect of tourists; here you can find most beautiful photographs in Odessa .
