Victory park
6. Victory park
The victory park, which is situated on Shevchenko avenue, has a beautiful pond with fountains.
When one comes along the small bridge near this pond, he could feel the drops of water on his face. And this really helps a lot when it’s hot.
Some time ago, the zoo was planned to be built here. But the place appeared to be unsatisfactory, and only the name of the street behind the park was left – the Zoo street.
There are also playgrounds and sand play grounds for the kids, different flowers and trees in the park.
And, if one is lucky enough, one has a chance to see a little squirrel nibbling nuts.
If one crosses the road down the 10th April square, there are the names of the World War I heroes written on the stella in the center of the square
