I live in Zaporozhye. It is a big city in the south-east of my country Ukraine. The uniqueness of my city is that within the city limits there is an island called Khortitsa. It is the largest island on the Dnieper River: the length of the island is 12,5 km, and the width is 2,5 km on average.
Khortitsa is a national historical and cultural reserve. In 2007 Khortitsa was named one of the "Seven Wonders of Ukraine".
What is the uniqueness of our Khortitsa?
1/ On the island grow unique steppe grasses and wildflowers. Many of these plants are listed in the Red Book of Ukraine and they grow only on Khortitsa.
2/ In the forested part in the south of the island there are over 30 species of animals, 120 species of birds, ten species of reptiles and amphibians.
3/ Khortitsa is called the cradle of the Cossacks. On the island and its surrounding lands in the 16-18th centuries there was a Zaporizhian Sich (as the Cossacks called the community). They were warriors and lived independently from any other countries.
4/ Khortitsa has a special energy. Therefore it is a favorite vacation spot of the locals.
If any of you, friends, come to Ukraine, be sure to visit the island of Khortitsa. I invite you to visit and I am sure you will be pleased!
