Give yourself a present of visiting the region where number of monuments of archeology, history, culture and architecture is estimated at thousands.

You can feel special atmosphere in Svirzh castle, refined taste of Zhovkiv castle; and mystique spirit of Zolochiv castle with its strange boulders in the bailey. The mysterious stones are scattered all over the neighbourhood. You will see your own eyes the ones lying in the forest shaped as a giant altar, and a rock “Stone-giant” rising on the neighbor flat. It is said that one can easily climb it, but it is almost impossible to climb down by oneself. You will know that this stone was dropped by the devil in attempt to drop it on Dominican monastery (a cult building, a monument of architecture in baroque style).
