Ukrainian nature, Ukrainian land looks very awesome here. Ancient fighting, bridges, canyons.. they are all here in this city. Ukrainian blogger shows you awesome city, and blogger girl love to show Ukraine for you)
Kamianets-Podilskyi Castle (Ukrainian: Кам'янець-Подільська фортеця; Polish: twierdza w Kamieńcu Podolskim; Russian: Каменец-Подольская крепость; Turkish: Kamaniçe Kalesi) is a former Ruthenian-Lithuanian castle and a later three-part Polish fortress located in the historic city of Kamianets-Podilskyi, Ukraine, in the historic region of Podolia in the western part of the country. Its name is attributed to the root word kamin', from the Slavic word for stone.
No epithet is able to describe fully the splendor of this ancient city, which no other city can match, even in Europe. Founded on an island, which was created by the Smotrych River bend, Kamianets-Podilskyi has a history, which has formed its diverse appearance. An incredible quantity of amazing 11th – 19th centuries' monuments and landmarks are concentrated on the territory of the Old City. They are a big reason why this city is on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
For over a thousand years, Kamianets-Podilskyi, located at the crossing of European trade routes and influenced by different cultures, had been a frontier castle, for which the East and the West fought constantly. The first fortification buildings appeared here in times of Kyivan Rus. However, most consider the city to have been founded in 1362 by the Lithuanian Koryatowicz princes. Legend has it that while out hunting, the brothers chased a beautiful deer, which led them to an unusual island surrounded by a deep canyon. In that place, a location saved by nature from outer threats, the Lithuanian princes decided to build a fortress.
The city grew so rapidly, that it soon turned into a large trade and craft center and began to compete with Kyiv and Lviv. But Kamianets-Podilskyi experienced real prosperity in the 15th century, when it passed to Poland. At that time, three ethnic communities lived here - Poles, Armenians and Ukrainians - each of which decorated its neighborhoods with distinct architecture. During the Polish period, Kamianets-Podilskyi became known for its impenetrability. According to legend, a Turkish sultan, who had tried in vain to enter the city, asked the local citizens: Who built this fort? The God himself did! - was the answer. So let God conquer it!” - the sultan conceded.
Ironically, in 1672 the fortress surrendered to the Turks, who left a big imprint on the city during their 27 years of governance. Later, in 1699, Kamianets-Podilskyi returned to the guardianship of Poland, and a century later it passed to the Russian Empire.
Despite the twists in history, Kamianets-Podilskyi has managed to preserve its priceless buildings almost unchanged. The main sight is still the Ancient Fortress, considered to be one of the best samples of fortification buildings in Eastern Europe. Massive walls and bastions continue to inspire with their might and majesty. Among the fort towers, the ones that stand out are the Black Tower, which contains a 40-meter well, and the Karmeliukova Tower, which is the tallest tower and was named in the 19th century after its prisoner - Ukrainian national hero Ustym Karmeliuk.
In the towers and dungeons of the fortress are unique exhibitions, which brightly illustrate the pages of Kamianets-Podilskyi’s history: scenes of medieval trials, defenses of the fort, and weapons collections are all depicted. The “Antiquities of Podolia” exposition, describing the past of the region, is especially interesting. The castle bridge that leads to the fortress is separate tourist attraction on its own. It is often called the Turkish bridge, because in 17th century, when the Ottomans ruled the city, the bridge was considerably rebuilt.
Since that time, it has been supplemented by a Turkish minaret. The complex of the Dominican Monastery also bears the imprints of different epochs and styles. And St. Nicolas' Catholic Church, included in the complex, is considered to be one of the most ancient city temples.

Orthodox Holiday of Epiphany (Twelfth-Day) in Ukraine. January 19th. http://kiev-tour-guide.at.ua
Private guide in Ukraine Sergey Tsarapora
Tours, excursions, transfers in Ukraine and Crimea with Sergey private guide.
The Epiphany, celebrated in Ukraine and Russia on January 19, marks the baptism of Jesus in the Orthodox Church. Believing that on this day water becomes holy and is imbued with special powers, Ukrainians and Russians cut holes in the ice of lakes and rivers, often in the shape of the cross, to bathe in the freezing water.
I was one of many participants in the ritual may dip themselves three times under the water, honoring the Holy Trinity, to symbolically wash away their sins from the past year, and to experience a sense of spiritual rebirth. Orthodox priests are on hand to bless the water, and rescuers are on hand to monitor the safety of the swimmers in the ice-cold water. Other less intrepid people may limit their participation in the Epiphany rites to those conducted inside churches, where priests perform the Great Blessing of Waters, both on Epiphany Eve and Epiphany (Theophany) proper. The water is then distributed to attendees who may store it to use in times of illness, to bless themselves, family members, and their homes, or to drink. Some Ukrainians think any water - even from the taps on the kitchen sink - poured or bottled on Epiphany becomes holy water, since all the water in the world is blessed this day. In the more mild climate of the southern cities of Odessa, Sevastopol, Mykolaiv, Evpatoria, Balaclava, Yalta meanwhile, where air and water temperatures both hover in the low to mid 10 degree Celsius range in January, thousands of people jump into the Black Sea at midnight each year on Epiphany and begin to swim in celebration of the feast.
First steps of Orthodox Bisantine Christianity in Kievan Rus medieval state started on the second half of 9th cent. The definitive Christianisation of Kiev dates from the late 980s (the year 986 is disputed), when Vladimir the Great was baptized at Chersonesos (Crimean peninsula), proceeding to baptize his family and people in Kiev. The place of Vladimir's baptism is marked by St. Vladimir's Cathedral (Sevastopol towm nowdays).
Returning from Crimea to Kiev in triumph, Vladimir baptised his 12 sons, guards and many nobles. He destroyed the wooden statues of Slavic pagan gods (the statue of Perun — the supreme god — was thrown into the Dnieper). Then Vladimir sent a message to all residents of Kiev, rich, and poor, and beggars, and slaves, to come to the Dniper river on the following day, lest they risk becoming the prince's enemies. Large number of people came; some even brought infants with them. They were sent into the water while Orthodox priests, who came from Chersonesos for the occasion, prayed. To commemorate the event, Vladimir built the first stone church of Kievan Rus', called the Church of the Tithes, where his body and the body of his new wife were to repose. Another church was built on top of the hill where pagan statues stood before.
By the way, Moscow [Moskva - in Slavonians transcription] was faunded, as known, in 1147 only (it was a very smal village on little island on the river Mokva [swamp - from Slavonian languages]. But Kiev was one of the biggest towns in Europe on that time.

Покровский женский монастырь. Pokrovsky female Monastery.
Покро́вский монасты́рь в Киеве — православный женский монастырь в Киевской епархии Украинской православной церкви (Московского патриархата).
Основан 11 января 1889 года великой княгиней Александрой Петровной Романовой (в девичестве Александра-Фредерика-Вильгельмина Ольденбургская, в иночестве — Анастасия)
В 1881 году великая княгиня Александра Петровна покинула Петербург и поселилась в Киеве, где приступила к осуществлению своей мысли создания монашеской общины. Последняя задумывалась ею не только как женский монастырь, но и как лечебное учреждение для бедных, в котором роль младшего медицинского персонала выполняли бы монахини и послушницы монастыря. Великой княгине удалось реализовать задуманное, пожертвовав новому монастырю все свои средства . В течение 1889—1911 годов на территории монастыря было построено около 30 зданий — церкви, церковно-приходская школа с общежитием, корпуса для сестёр, золотошвейные и иконописные мастерские, гостиница. В том числе были построены и лечебные учреждения — бесплатная больница с терапевтическим и хирургическим отделениями, приют для слепых и немощных, амбулатория, аптека с бесплатным отпуском лекарств. Главным врачом монастырской больницы был назначен Николай Викторович Соломка, который стал главным помощником великой княгини Александры Петровны, активно оснащая больницы монастыря современным оборудованием, достаточно сказать что первый рентгеновский аппарат в Киеве (и в России) появился именно в монастырской больнице.
Великая княгиня Александра Петровна скончалась в монастыре 13 апреля 1900 года, но осуществление её планов продолжилось и после её смерти.
Проектированием и строительством монастыря занимался Владимир Николаевич Николаев (1847—1911), епархиальный архитектор Киева (позже архитектор Киево-Печерской лавры). Покровская церковь и величественный Никольский собор, эскизный проект которого был составлен сыном великой княгини Петром Николаевичем , были построены Николаевым в псевдорусском стиле. Закладка Никольского собора состоялась 21 августа 1896 года. Первый камень в основания собора заложил император Николай II , второй — императрица Александра Фёдоровна, третий — великая княгиня Александра Петровна. Собор построен на средства, выделенные киевским благотворителем Николой Артемиевичем Терещенко. Строительство собора продолжалось 15 лет. 9 мая 1911 года епископ Чигиринский Павел (Преображенский) освятил главный его престол.
В настоящее время Никольский собор имеет два этажа и шесть престолов.
Pokrovsky Monastery in Kiev - an Orthodox convent in Kiev diocese of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate).
Founded January 11, 1889 Grand Duchess Alexandra Petrovna Romanova (née Alexandra Frederica Wilhelmina Oldenburg, in monasticism - Anastasia)
In 1881, Grand Duchess Alexandra had left St. Petersburg and moved to Kiev, where he launched his idea of creating a monastic community. Last I thought it not only as a convent, but also as a hospital for the poor, in which the role of nurses to perform the nuns and novices of the monastery. Grand Duchess was able to realize his plan, sacrificing new monastery all their money. During 1889-1911 years on the territory of the monastery was built about 30 buildings - church, parochial school with a dormitory, housing for nurses, gold and icon-painting workshops and a hotel. Including were built and hospitals - free hospital with therapeutic and surgical departments, a shelter for the blind and infirm, clinic, pharmacy with free dispensing. Head physician of the hospital of the monastery was appointed Nikolai Straw, who became the chief assistant to the Grand Duchess Alexandra Petrovna actively equipping hospitals with modern equipment of the monastery, it is sufficient to say that the first X-ray machine in Kiev (in Russian) appeared exactly in the monastery hospital.
Grand Duchess Alexandra, died in the monastery of April 13, 1900, but the implementation of its plans and continued after her death.
Design and construction of the monastery was engaged in Vladimir Nikolaev (1847-1911), a diocesan architect of Kiev (later the architect of Kiev-Pechersk Lavra). Church of the Intercession and the majestic Cathedral of St. Nicholas, preliminary draft of which was made son of Grand Duchess Peter Nikolayevich Nikolayev were built in pseudo-style. Bookmark St. Nicholas Cathedral was held August 21, 1896. The first stone in the foundation of the cathedral laid the Emperor Nicholas II, who second - Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, the third - the Grand Duchess Alexandra. The cathedral was built on the funds allocated to Kiev benefactor Nikola Artemievichem Tereshchenko. Construction of the cathedral lasted for 15 years. May 9, 1911, Bishop Paul Chigirinsky (Transfiguration) consecrated its main altar.
Currently, St. Nicholas Cathedral has two floors and six thrones.
