Once upon a time animals
(to learn) that the lion, King
of Beasts, was very, very sick. The groans and moans
hear) from the cave of the lion, and the curious animals gathered about to pay (they) respects to the King of the Jungle. One by one – the little
mouse – the frog – the rabbit - the crow – the lamb — the goat - until only the fox was left at the cave. "My dear friend, you (not to come in) and tell me a word of sympathy?" the lion asked the fox. “I beg your
pardon", said the fox, "You
(to hear) many kind words and wishes to good health today." "But you will do my day complete." "Thank you kindly, King
Lion", answered the fox, "I see all the (a footprint) to your cave.
I see none coming out. Good day to you, sir." The fox quickly (to run away) from the cave. The Moral: It is (easy) not to enter into trouble than to exit from it.
Odessa is a city in the southwestern part of Ukraine. It is the administrative center of Odessa Oblast. Одесса – это город в юго-западной части Украины. Город является административным центром Одесской области.
Odessa was founded by Russia in the 1794 instead of the Turkish fortress on the coast of the Black Sea. Одесса была основана Россией в 1794 году вместо турецкой крепости на побережье Черного моря.
Total area of Odessa is 239 square kilometers. The city’s population exceeds 1 million people. Общая площадь Одессы составляет 239 квадратных километров. Население города превышает 1 миллион человек.
Odessa is divided into four districts. There are Suvorovskiy, Malinowskiy, Kievskiy, and Primorskiy. Одесса состоит из четырех районов: Суворовский, Малиновский, Киевский и Приморский.
All this makes Odessa special, incomparable and extremely attractive.
As soon as my favorite city is not called! Odessa-mother, South Palmyra, Pearl by the sea ... Who just doesn't live here and what is not here! A million people of different nationalities, ages, religions, views and subcultures ... And they all find a common language, live in peace and harmony.
Odessa is the most unusual city with a life of its own. A city that both its residents and guests are proud of.
I love Odessa for the special flavor of Privoz, amazing ancient architecture, the cozy atmosphere of small courtyards, as well as the music playing on the central streets. I like walking and watching people, taking pictures and filming something interesting. And there are a lot of interesting things here.
