This picturesque spot is called a fairy tale corner of
Ukraine-everything
about it is sheer poetry, it is so exquisite and beautiful.

Wherever you look, you see something, distinctive or inimitable.
There are the Elysian Fields, the English Park whose collection of plants
comes from many countries of the world, and the Caucasian Hill which seems
to carry you to sunny Georgia. One finds luxurious pavilions and pergolas,
beautiful grottos and waterfalls, an underground waterway…
At every turn you are spellbound by the symphony of a stretch of water,
by the singing of green strings among the trees and bushes. The views in Sofievka
are always new, varying with the weather or time of day-morning, noon or evening.
Sofievka is beautiful in any season of the year. In springtime it is arrayed in pink
and white blossoms and resounds with singing nightingales; on a hot summer day,
the breezes waft fragrance of parched grasses over the oak groves while the pleasant
coolness of shady alleys beckons you; in golden autumn when the red and yellow leaves
are falling, the park is carpeted with silver by the morning frost. Sofievka is lovely
in the winter silence, too, when the great frozen waterfall looks like a giant
iceberg and the steep grey cliffs wear cap of snow.
All who have visited the park
are enraptured by its beauty, uniqueness and lyrical perfection of its landscaped
compositions.
