What can a tourist bring from Odessa?..
If you are a tourist and would like to prove your friend that you truly have been in Odessa, then keep the straight and narrow path to Soborka or Primorskiy boulevard. Here enterprising odessites will sell you some exclusive knick-knackery, made by their skilful hands. It may have an inscription “Odessa” or “Odessa 2007”. You can also find beautiful masterpieces or rarity with interesting stories. All south of Ukraine is flooded with white peak-caps as comrade Bender was wearing. Of course, this souvenir goes with splendid inscription “Odessa” too. By the way, between two famous sights of interest – Duke and Sea port – local photographers are ready in a moment to make a picture of you with one of exotic animals. They can also put your majestic face in some typical view of Odessa for other price. In case you desire, there is a possibility to buy unique T-shirt with Opera Theatre in front or, if you like, group of Odessa criminals. It is all up to you. You can even purchase tins with Odessa air inside. But if you have a spare hour and desire to find truly valuable things, you should spend it in Sobornaya Square. Almost each seller here is a crackjack.
However, the most bright memory of Odessa will be your tan, which will remind you about warm sun, wide beaches and handsome ladies. But unfortunately the tun can disappear as time goes by. That’s why you should better picture yourself with any sight of Odessa that had fascinated you most. But genuine experts say that the best memories of Odessa will leave our beautiful girls and warm conversations with locals. Finally, I can suggest you buying a bottle of Odessa champagne with its inimitable taste.
