Parks & Nature
In the park "Syretsky" there is zip-line (rope-park) facility for both adults and children.
Also, it's where infamous children railroad is located. Beginning from the first days of May and until summer's end one can take a memorable ride through the park which (park) itself is a great place for jogging, running, cycling and BBQ-ing from April to late November. During winter snowy months it becomes a place for XC-skiing fun.

Nice large park. Kind of abandoned at places but a lot of cool nature and large trees - the air is fantastic! There are horse riding club (you can rent one) and 2 cafes. Also several playgrounds for children one of which is new and modern.
