Walkwithme in the winter Sumy town. Part 2 - Historical Center

in #walkwithme6 years ago (edited)

Let me continue with a small winter tour of my city and show some pictures of its historical part. It is a small hill with several pedestrian streets and 2 churches.
Soborna (Cathedral) Street with Savior Transfiguration Cathedral

and close to it the monument to Shevchenko - the famous Ukrainian poet and fighter for the existing of Ukrainian language

Altanka - a wooden gazebo, official symbol of our town. It is said that it was built more than 100 years ago without a single nail

It is more than 300 years old. Long time ago it was used as a fortification and there were discovered underground tunnels in its basement leading to the river.
Here we are a little closer

It was my native town of Sumy (Ukraine) waiting for spring at the end of March 2018.

Хорошее время для съемки выбрали! Нет пересвета и приятный желтый свет нежно освещает. Особенно хорошо получились первая и последние фото.
Спасибо за экскурсию! Супер!

В свете заката обычно теплые фотки получаются, но в моем случае время специально не выбиралось.
Просто поздновато я в центр вылезла, хотелось все сделать по светлому и пофоткать больше, да день сейчас короткий - вот и вышло как вышло. Первая еще ничего, а все остальное уже в тени, и темновато.
А за экскурсию всегда пожалуйста:-))))) могу еще летом повторить

Таню, ви робите гарні фото і цікаво описуєте! Я захотіла відвідати ваше місто! А ви не їдете на мітап в Ужгород до Соколових?

Дякую, що читаєте:-))) Приїжджайте звісно, буду рада вас бачити!
А щодо мітапа... далекувато мені їхати, та ще й з дитиною, виходить подолати відстань через усю Україну... день на дорогу туди, день на зворотню дорогу, а взимку ж навіть по місту не погуляєш, о 5й уже ніч і не побачиш нічого. Але я подумки з вами, буду читати і підтримувати ваші звіти.

П.С. Здається ми вже домовлялись... мені ледь за 30 і зі мною можна на "ти", інакше буду ображатись:)))

I hope to visit a place like this one day, beautiful.

True friends are very beautiful. Do I get a discord you friend. So that I can communicate with you more easily

Wellcome to Ukraine!

Beautiful photos of a great town and you still have lots of snow, Erika!

Have a great weekend, you and your loved ones! :)

Thanks! Checked your blog, I see you had not boring and a very productive weekend too;-)

Yes, that's true indeed! Thanks! ;)
