Unbelievable Carpathians

The famous Dovbush Rocks, located in the village of Bubnyshche in Ivano-Frankovsk region, are a unique sight in the Carpathian Mountains. The rocks cover an area of 100 hectares. The highest ones reach a height of 30 meters. Here are the towers with the names "Tulip" (forty meters high), "Doll", and "Windmill". In the caves you can see benches and stairs, ditches, ramparts and wells. According to scientists, all of the above mentioned fragments are either from a rock monastery or castle, or from the fortifications of the IX-XIII centuries. Some researchers believe that the caves and structures located in them are directly related to the leader of Oprishkov movement, Oleksa Dovbush. If you climb the stairs to the rocks, you can see a fabulously beautiful panorama of the majestic ranges of the Carpathians, including mountains - Klyuch and Parashka.

Among the list of attractions of the Carpathian Mountains is "old tub", located in the village Lumshory in Perechinsky district, which has been known since the XVII century. Its healing warm mineral waters are rich in hydrogen sulfide and help cure diseases of cardiovascular system, digestive tract, musculoskeletal system.

In the Ukrainian Carpathians, in the eastern part of the village Chinadievo, there is a unique landmark - a two-story, rectangular shape, castle St. Miklos, built in the early 15th century in the Romanesque style. At one time the castle served as a residence of the Hungarian rulers. After the object lost its strategic importance, its premises were used as a storehouse. Later, St. Miklos Castle served as a prison. The ancient building was restored in 2001, after it was rented by the artist Josef Bartos. Currently, exhibitions of paintings and music concerts are held in the renovated building.
