Underpass Art

Reviewed By emfromsydney - Sydney, Australia

While I wouldn't travel to Rostov just to see it; if you're already going, it's worth taking a look as it is the only city in all of Russia with this particular type of mosaic art. It depicts typical soviet scenes of education and lifestyle and also scenes from World War II. You can find this art in a number of underpasses along the main street: Bolshaya Sadovaya Ulitsa.

This is not just a historical and cultural place. It is also one of the most beautiful observational points with a great view on the city. Going up or down the steps is a fun activity, too.

Reviewed By Alex03011980 - Moscow, Russia

В первую очередь хочется отметить, что вся эта красота бесплатно. Территория ухоженная, множество декораций, садово парковых скульптур, все стилизованно под настоящие русские былины и сказки, на территории искусственные водоемы с золотыми карпами, мини зоопарк, к слову животные ухожены, а территория для многих не хуже, чем в известных зоопарках. Не понимаю предидущие отзывы, охрана присутствует и это замечательно, к сожалению наших граждан, для сохранения чистоты и культуры стоит стабилизировать и большинство почаще . На территории строиться гостиничный комплекс, жаль что еще не готов. Несколько ресторанов, отмечу заведение “Тетерев” очень вкусно, цены адекватны, выбор блюд шикарный, южный колорит полностью выдержан! Пробуйте абсолютно все! Особенно хорошо окрошка с рыбой, баранина и настойки! В выходные людно, съезжаются со всей области, но если Вы едете через Ростовскую область, не задумывайтесь и поезжайте, а если к тому же еще и с детьми, подарите им маленький праздник, их эмоции сделают Вас счастливыми!

Rostov Zoo

Reviewed By mihhail i - Thailand

Of advantages - a large collection of animals over a large area. Of the shortcomings - needs renovation, both the animal rooms, and walking paths. Some species (like tigers, wolves) are still kept in cages. In my opinion, having such a large territory, the administration could think about how to extend the laws for animals, and do not keep them in cages as it did 100 years ago.
