    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.

    Has everything you need and some very good shops. The prices are very good and the coffee is great. The restaurants could be a little better but if you are interested in shopping I recommend this mall in Southern Ukraine

    This Soviet-era park, built in a monumental style, offers a place to stroll, sit and take in an awesome view of the Dnieper and plains beyond.
    The gems for me were a small memorial to the soldiers lost in the war in Afghanistan and another to those at Chernobyl, which help give a more complex view on heroism.

    The monunent is dedicated to Kherson's shipbuilding history for both the Imperial Russian & Soviet navies. It is located at the river esplanade in a nice park. It is a good photo stop.

    Any city of this size should be proud to own such a diverse collection of works. If you are happy to just look at the art, then great.
    However, for an English speaker wanting to learn more, the options are limited to a leaflet in English which gives some background to the museum and their website after it has been churned through Google Translate.
    The staff were friendly and even fished out an old guidebook for me from Soviet times.
    The building however is showing signs of needing the roof repairing - so go and visit and give them your 30 hrivna!

    The history of Kherson starts with the emerging of life on planet Earth. But I guess it's primarily made for school children and in that sense gets the job done. For a foreign visitor, yep it's a bit like time machine taking you to Soviet times, very very cool two hours I spent there.

    This isn't something to do if you are far becasue it's really just a gate to look at. History is cool but combine it with the cathedral to make it worthwhile

    Oh, I have an unexpected SPA procedure. The best what I have ever feel. Cosmetic tools what they have use, are top notch.
    This was really surprising for me. I have the best cleansing for my skin. The Japanese products was awesome! Prefect kit! Lux. This is what I ( we ) like very much and always searching. This definitely the best choice. Thank you guys!
