Kharkiv was founded in 1654 as a Kharkiv fortress [uk; ru], and after humble beginnings as a small fortress, it grew to be a major centre of industry, trade and Ukrainian culture in the Russian Empire. At the beginning of the 20th century the city was predominantly Russian in population, but after the Soviet government's policy of Ukrainization the city became populated mainly by Ukrainians with a significant number of Russians.

Путешествие по Украине 🌍 Змиев - Чугуев
Иногда вот так вот отправляешься в путешествие и даже не знаешь, что ты там увидишь.
Я думаю, что главное настрой. Когда открыт к чудесному, чудо происходит.
Нас покорила дорога со Змиева в Чугуев, а именно участок Мохнач - Скрипаи. Как там волшебно. Едешь и ощущение, что ты в каком-то сказочном месте.

Був сотенним містечком Лиманської сотні. ПНа території села кілька озер, зокрема озеро Світличне, озеро Чайка. Урочище Горіла долина - єдине ізольоване місцезнаходження солончаків в Харківській області та найпівнічніша точка солончаків у Європі. Лиманський фольклорний колектив Калинонька, спеціально для гостей виконає деякі свої пісні.

Eastern Ukraine 🇺🇦 - Kharkiv Oblast - Quad Bike Ride
East of Ukraine is pretty hard to visit and live in these days.
I just wanted to show that the Eastern Ukraine is lovely with its nature and offerings. We spent great family time at my parents in law's cottage house next to the Oskil, Kharkiv Oblast. Enjoyed the lake, forest, nature and delicious homemade food. I was probably the only foreigner in the town.
In between we also found chance to have a quad bike ride at a National Park where we stayed. This short video from our one hour quad bike adventure.
