Travelling is a good way to find out more about different countries with different traditions and customs. Some travellers prefer to spend in one country one day and then leave for another country in order to visit more places.

I am from Donetsk. So, if a foreign visitor has only one day to spend in my country I think I would advise him to visit the first metallurgic plant which was opened here in the middle of the 19th century. It granted Donetsk the status of the industrial city. The main sight of the city is devoted to its industrial prosperity. We are talking about Mertsalov Palm that was created in 1896 from a piece of rail. The original monument is acknowledged as a unique masterpiece; it has got many awards and today the monument adorns the entrance of the Mining Institute in Saint Petersburg. One of the Donetsk squares keeps the copy of the monument that was made according to the project of smith Sergei Kapruk in 1998.

Donetsk has an immense range of dining options, from Ukrainian and Russian, to Japanese, Irish, and Mexican dishes. The International cuisine is authentic and very tasty. Eating places range from inexpensive self-service to luxurious and exclusive, most big restaurants accept credit cards.

Donetsk has lots of shopping opportunities, purchasers won’t be disappointed here. Artyoma Street, as one of the main street in Donetsk, is also a big shopping area; you will find a wide range of different shops and stores offering souvenirs, clothes, books, shoes, and the world-famous Matryoshka dolls, among other things to buy.
