Odessa
Interesting places in Odessa:Odessa (Ukrainian: Odesa, Russian: Odessa; also referred to as Odesa) is the fourth largest city in Ukraine.^ It is the administrative center of the Odessa Oblast (province), and is designated as its own separate raion (district) within the oblast. Odessa is a major port on the Black Sea.
The most interesting thing to see in Odessa is the old town itself. The city was once the center for trade coming into the Russian empire and as such has much of the grandeur of a wealthy city. Conversely though the city appears to have had no upkeep since the 1917 October revolution and has had even less since the end of Communism in 1992. As such, vast portions of what was a magnificently wealthy old city are falling into a state of total disrepair. The old section of the city though is quite clean and feels very safe so it makes for a good two days worth of casual unguided wandering particularly with the wide tree lined avenues and large open parks.
In the much smaller and more well kept part of the Old town there is a large and beautiful Opera house and some very nice parks. There is also one main street leading through the old town that is vibrant with people selling street goods to tourists.
Also there are many interesting museums in Odessa. Perhaps the most interesting of which may be The Museum of Western&Eastern Art (Muzey Zapadnogo i Vostochnogo Iskusstva), where you can see paintings by Aivazovsky and Caravaggio and other famous artists.
