Odessa is a beautiful historical city

Hi friends!

We continue to get acquainted with our Sunny city of Odessa. We walk the streets of old Odessa in the city center.

In 1988, a beautiful monument to Petya and Gavrik was opened in Odessa. Sculptor Stepanov showed the characters from the story of Odessa writer Valentin Kataev.

The heroes of the story by V. Katayev “lone White sail” Peter and Gavrik are friends of mine, are totally different in nature and different operating in emerging situations. Their character traits, habits and views are mainly manifested in the attitude of these guys to others and their actions.

Petya is a dreamer and dreamer, a carefree and simple-minded family pet, for whom life is filled with romantic stories, unsolved mysteries and joyful discoveries. At the same time, Gavrik is strong – willed, reserved, accustomed to work from an early age, accustomed to non-childish worries and deprivations. But what then unites such children, different in character and position, why and in difficult minutes, and during games they reach each other?

Just answer to this question is quite difficult. Most likely, that Pete the Lighthouse was attracted by his extraordinary vitality, a veritable “sea”, a strong-willed character, boyish valour, pride and courage. All events in the story take place on the territory of Odessa.

In Odessa on Deribasovskaya street built a real Europe. The truth is it's just a shopping center where you can spend time. Many shops and restaurants where you can shop and eat. There were many controversial issues with the construction of this building. Deribasovskaya street is very old. Houses have 3-4 floors maximum. Contemporaries were against this building, because they thought it would spoil the appearance of the old street. But all went well, the building of Europe beautifully fit into the old architecture.

In Odessa, there is a beautiful architectural building of the Lutheran Church. It should be noted that it is the highest point of Odessa down the street Novoselsky. The current Church. There's an organ inside. You can listen to great music in the evenings.

Inhabitants of Odessa big inventors. Their shops and offices are always beautifully and extravagantly decorated. For example, fashion designers on Polskaya street decorated the entrance to the office with old photos with different world celebrities. It looks like a Museum, you can spend hours looking at old photos of celebrities.

There are many bridges in Odessa, but no rivers. But the hilly terrain forced to build transitions in the form of bridges. This bridge Kotzebue. Now it has been restored and beautifully decorated with street lights.

This is an old alleys near the Customs area. It is from here that we began to build our city. The territory near the seaport is still built up with very old houses. Now there are plans for a new development of the port area.

Autumn in the soul of people causes a lot of positive emotions. Decorators shops on the street Richelieu tried their best. Created a beautiful and autumn decor in the shop window

The goddess of love on Preobrazhenskaya street decorated restaurant from the outside
