Kharkov is an interesting city for foreign guests, here you will find pretty monuments, quiet parks, interesting architecture. Here you can have fun 2-3 days, and then the question arises - what else to see not far from Kharkov.  One of the most interesting places that you can find relatively close to Kharkov is the Svyatogorsk Lavra. Svyatogorsky Monastery is one of the three largest in Ukraine. Within a few hundred years the monastery was a bastion of Orthodoxy in the wild field. It is located 150 kilometers from Kharkiv, here it is best to go by car.

Svyatogorje is a good place to spend all day here. Your personal English-speaking guide will show you the main attractions of the Lavra, take you along the Seversky Donets, we will walk along the chalky mountains, visit the old oak grove. 

Here everyone will find something interesting for themselves. Unique nature, centuries-old history, beautiful views of the chalky rocks and the banks of the Seversky Donets.

The guide will tell you about the history of these places, and, if desired, show the remote caves of the Arsenyevsky monastery.

From Kharkov it is better to leave before lunch, to have a time to see the most interesting. On the way to Svyatogorsk your English-speaking guide will tell you about Kharkov, the traditions of Slobozhanshchina region, our history and culture.

On the way, we can visit Chuguev with his art gallery. Let's stop at the observation platform on Mount Kremyanets, which offers a beautiful view of the Seversky Donets valley and the town of Izyum.

In the evening we return back to Kharkov. The optimal duration of excursion to the Svyatogorsk Lavra is 8-9 hours.
