The Fisherman’s House on Love Islet in Staryi Solotvyn
No comments · Posted by Sergei Rzhevsky in Regions, Travel
The picturesque Love Islet in the village of Staryi Solotvyn, in the middle of the Kodnyanka River, looks truly fabulous. And a small wooden hut, called the Fisherman’s House, gives this place a special mystery.
Love Islet is especially popular among newlyweds and lovers. It is a perfect place for photo shoots. Love Islet in Staryi Solotvyn on Google Maps. Photos by: Richard Zorge.

Odesa, a large Ukrainian city on the Black Sea coast, is often called “The Pearl of the South”. But it is known not only for its beautiful architecture. Odesa has an incredible system of catacombs stretching even beyond the city limits.
Most of the catacombs are former quarries, in which shell stone was mined for the construction of Odessa. Mining was done chaotically and as a result a huge underground maze appeared.
