Ukraine is a country with the glorious past. It is rich in historical monuments and different places of interest. Kyiv is the capital of Ukraine and one of the oldest cities in the Eastern Europe. It has already celebrated its 1500th anniversary. That's why it is not surprising that a lot of interesting monuments are situated there, for example, the well-known to all Slavonic world St Sophia's Cathedral and Kyivo-Pecherska Lavra. It is breathtaking to wander along the streets of the old town, to feel the breath of history.
But Ukrainian places of interest are situated not only in Kyiv. Near the small town of Kanev the monument to the Ukrainian national genius Taras Shevchenko is situated. The museum, where the books, drawings and manuscripts of Shevchenko are kept, is situated in the village not far from Kanev. Even the house, where he was born, is preserved. It is very interesting to look at it. One may come to Poltava and visit the museum of the famous Poltava battle, the field where Peter the Great defeated the Swedes.
One may also go to Zaporizhia, to the island of Khortytsia, where the Ukrainian Cossacks' organization was born. One can go to Odesa and walk along the boulevards, where Pushkin walked a long time ago, and one can touch the trees, which Pushkin touched. It is also possible to visit the last house of Chekhov (now the museum in Yalta), where Chekhov lived, and where he wrote his last works, and where he died. One may visit the famous symbol of the Crimea — the castle "Swallow's Nest" or the residence of Russian tsars.
It is possible to go through Gogol places in the Poltava Region and see Dickanka, Sorochintsy. One can continue this list, because there is also Western Ukraine with the Carpathians and their legends, feudal lords' castles and cathedrals, with their unique culture and nature. There are a lot of places to see in Ukraine and to be proud of. And I am glad to live in such a country, with all those beautiful monuments.
Братик Кролик получил четыре морковки. Он был очень голоден. Он хотел съесть морковь. Но потом он подумал, что его друг брат Козел тоже был голоден. Поэтому он съел только две морковки. Он хотел дать две другие морковки брату Козу. Он взял две морковки и побежал к дому BrotherGoat. Брата Козла не было дома. Поэтому брат Кролик положил две морковки на стол и убежал. Когда брат Козел пришел домой и увидел морковку на столе, он подумал: «О, какие у меня хорошие друзья! И я тоже хочу быть хорошим другом. Я думаю, что брат Кролик голоден «. Итак, брат Козел съел только одну морковку, взял другую морковку и побежал к дому брата Кролика. Брата Кролика не было дома. Брат Козел положил морковку на стол и написал письмо: «Дорогой брат, Кролик! Эта морковка для тебя. С любовью от брата Козла. Когда брат Кролик пришел домой, он увидел морковку и письмо на столе. Он прочитал письмо, съел морковку и подумал: «О! Какие хорошие друзья у меня есть!»
