The Sights
Opera and Ballet Theatre
The building of the Odessa National Opera and Ballet Theater is included in the 11 most interesting sights of Eastern Europe according to Forbes magazine (2008). It was built in 1809 by the project of the famous Petersburg architect (of French origin) - Jean- François Thomas de Thomon. Initially, the main entrance was facing the sea and the building resembled an ancient temple. In 1873 it was completely destroyed by fire. After 14 years, the theater was built from scratch and in a different style. In this appearance, it exists nowadays.
Deribasovskaya Street
Deribasovskaya is the central street and the heart of Odesa. Each brick pavement on the street witnessed some famous events. Despite the fact that the pedestrian part is a small part of the street, its age-old plane trees and the road paved with cobblestones create an incredible feeling of comfort and coziness.
The Potemkin Stairs
Potemkin Stairs is among the ten most beautiful stairs in Europe. It got its name from the film "The Battleship Potemkin" directed by Eisenstein. To date, the staircase consists of 192 steps (originally there were exactly 200, but, during the expansion of the port, eight steps were lost) and a dozen spans. The length of the Potemkin Stairs is 142 meters, it is created promisingly - its base is much wider than the top, which makes it appear that it is the same width along its entire length. By the sides of The Potemkin Stairs, there are located Istanbul and Greek parks.
Maritime Station
The passenger complex is the hallmark of the port of Odesa. The best in Ukraine and one of the largest in Europe.When tourists arriving in Odesa by sea, they meet the Maritime Station first of all. Odessans say, that the embankment in its form resembles a horseshoe “for good luck”. A magnificent view of the seascape of the harbor attracts not only guests but also residents of our city. Having walked for 5-10 minutes with easy steps, you will enjoy the view of the majestic “Potemkin Stairs”, and at the very top you will meet the monument of Duke de Richelieu - as one of the founding fathers of Odesa. Just walk around the world-famous Deribasovskaya street and visit the magnificent Opera and Ballet Theater.
"Privoz"
There is a saying that Odesa begins with "Privoz". They say that there you can "buy everything and a little more." But this is not important. Odesans say that ”Privoz” is not just a place for shopping, but the heart and soul of Odesa. Here the guests come for an excursion of the city.
