Little  journey at the weekends

I love Ukraine. Especially I love to find  and explore new places of native land.

Recently I've set out for a litle journey with my groupmates. It was amazing to discover unknown architectural monuments in my region (Rohatyn distric, Ivano-Frankivsk region, Ukraine). I visited small villages such a Cherche, Chesnyky, Pidozerne.

What is really interesting:

wooden Church of the Holy Spirit (1644–5) with a magnificent iconostasis (1647–50) is on UNESCO world heritage list 

estate of Count Ray in Priozerne village (XVIII-XIX century)

It was very scary inside this magnific castle. building is empty and very neglected. nobody cares about it. I was shocked by this. unfortunately, it's very common in Ukraine, when the government doesn't care about such masterpieces of architecture. 

I hope there will be found a good people, who’ll repair this building. Otherwise castle will be doomed to destruction.
