Truskavets - Ukrainian Karlovy Vary

Today, a story about Truskavets city in general is very well known, but if suddenly you are interested, then here we go:) The main thing for what they come here - it certainly did not look at the sights, and drink mineral water, but about her I will not tell, and so the information is sufficient. Let me just say only that the fabled "rotten" smell "Naftusya" absolutely nothing wrong there, you can drink, and even almost delicious:)

Another obvious plus Truskavetc - this is such a nature that surrounds the city on all sides and the corresponding clean air.



In Truskavets have 20 resorts, 21 guest house and a lot of hotels (more than 14,000 seats), but if you stay in the sanatorium "Kristall" (I was in it), it is better to choose rooms on the opposite side of the entrance, then the windows will open these types.


Buvet Truskavets two, one right next to the "Crystal" (and many other adjacent resorts), the second through the park a couple miles away. The park even has a so-called "Source Yusia dye, which is a three piece barely ongoing fountain with water containing glycerol. It is better to wash, but drinking is not necessary.





The interior inside the pump-room is absolutely boring and the Soviet:






The second pump room:



Need to drink water from a jug of that water does not impinge on your teeth, because they darken from this:



In nursing homes, of course, there are numerous treatment rooms, spa clinics, balneoozokeritolechebnitsy and a bunch of doctors from dentists to cardiologists. Medical services included in the price but all basically free-style "greetings from the Soviet Union, but in a good way. The ratio of medical staff is also quite normal behavior in the style of "do not like it - go nafig" did not notice. If anything, there is a new and modern medical centers:





In the dining room every day at the tables are put on the menu tomorrow, there will need to choose what tomorrow is, it is very convenient. But the food depends on the cost of the permit, there is a buffet, there are normal, there are vegetarian and some other:








Not to mention about the elegant and spacious park. Its presence in the city - a huge plus for the rest:




















The very same city this park is actually divided into 2 parts: one for tourists, "the other" local ". The latter differs gray and bleak Soviet architecture, even the pictures will not lead. Tourist part looks good, sometimes almost on a European (with the exception of old buildings resorts, of course):

















And this is the place if you remove Ukrainian inscriptions, generally indistinguishable from any Czech town:

Yes, another thing, being in Truskavets, you should definitely ride the bus tours, they are sold at every step in the stands or on the streets. They cost a penny and let you see a lot of interesting places in Western Ukraine, which in itself is beautiful read only. I especially recommend to go to the "Dovbush Rocks" and a long, lasting nearly a day excursion to the Hungarian and Romanian villages, towns Mukachevo, coastal, and dozens of other cool places (can not remember what this tour is called).
