Odessa is a city with a famous sense of humor, a picturesque walking center by the sea, bright beaches, cafes and restaurants. In Odessa, I want to return to drown again in its extraordinary atmosphere. Of course, in Odessa, just a lot of interesting and beautiful places to relax.
The Potemkin Stairs
One of the main and easily recognizable sights of the city by the sea is the famous Potemkin Stairs. At the same time, it is a monument of architecture of the 19th century.
At one time, the staircase was a meaningless and ambitious construction, born only thanks to the will of Count Vorontsov, who wanted to make such an unusual gift to his wife Elizabeth. So one of the main wonders of Odessa was born. And its name was received after the release of the film "Battleship Potemkin."

House-wall
One of the most interesting places in Odessa is the original house, which is also called "Witch House", "Flat House" and "Card House". Its uniqueness is that from a certain perspective it looks like one single flat wall.
The secret of the house in a particular architecture: one of the walls of the house is at an acute angle to the facade. In order to see it, you need to move away from home. And the history of the appearance of such a house is connected with the lack of either a place for construction, or funds for the completion of construction. Whatever it was, the house has been very popular among tourists from all over the world for many years now.

"Window to Europe"
On Pushkinskaya Street in an ordinary yard in 2003, an outdoor art gallery appeared. It all began with the fact that one of the tenants became bored to live in an ordinary gray and unremarkable yard. He invited artists who gradually turned an ordinary yard into a fairy-tale world. Now tourists are flocking here to see this miracle personally.
