And the biggest miracle is that this park is man-made. The tones of the stones and water have changed own previous places by human hands and together with the plants created the monument of love. It was love of Polish Count Stanisław Potocki to his wife Sofia. Since he loved her and she was Greek this park is filled with Greek Mythology and is named Sofiyivka in her honor.

Yes, beautiful photos and beautiful places! And plus that it is connected with mythology. Looking at the photo feel some kind of mystery and calm.

This really mystery place is especially nice in early spring and in late autumn when there are not a lot of visitors. Thank you very much for your friendly and deep reply!
