Introducing Vinnytsya
Vinnytsya is another perfectly pleasant city that one would never expect to find hidden amid central Ukraine’s endless wheat, sunflower and sugar-beet fields. It famously plays host to the embalmed body of a renowned Russian doctor and to one of Hitler’s bunkers, but its true appeal lies in its centre, where several churches, a park and a pleasant pedestrian street compete for attention. Vinnytsya also makes a good jumping-off point for some interesting excursions in southern Podillya.

There are internet cafés and a supermarket on the pedestrian street, vul Kozytskoho. The city has a snazzy English-language website, www.vinnytsatourism.com.ua, with loads of practical information.
