Rivne or Rovno as it’s sometimes known, is a historic city in western Ukraine. One word that springs to mind is ‘picturesque’ when describing Rivne; sometimes this city is referred to as the country’s most attractive place. For a city so beautiful, it has gone through hard times; the majority of is ancient buildings, which make up its cultural heritage, were ruined or severely damaged during World War II. Thankfully, some of Rivne’s historic and architectural monuments survived, and are today, along with the city’s fantastic views, its main treasures.
If you are staying here for two days or a week or even longer, you will be spoilt as to what you should explore first. There are churches, museums, parks, the majestic Rivne Cathedral and the Rivne regional drama theatre. Be sure to put the magical and romantic “Tunnel of Love” in Klevan, the Intercession Cathedral in Soborna, which has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the Amber Museum with a vast collection of amber stones on your lists to see.
