Amazing place to dig deep into the culture and history of a very ancient crossroads of the world! Worth a visit and better the second time you go!

Exhibits are average and the building is old and dirty. Restrooms were terrible.

Interesting exhibitions, but not all the rooms are open.

Interesting museum. Some information in English, but not all.

Interesting exhibits, but not very dynamic.

Very interesting, must see.

Fascinating

It is an historical island located in Zaporizhia Ukraine. You can see the dam, bridges and partially the city from this island. Beautiful place for having a walk or other activities.

Beautiful nature, great place for walk or bike ride

Amazing historical place, good views

A real treasure of the Nature. The island is the only part of the city of Zaporizhzhya where you can actually breathe freely. It has a lot of attractions, — beaches, hiking trails, restaurants, museums, theaters, etc... If you like nature, this place is for you to visit and to enjoy.

The largest River Island on the Dnieper and a vital historical site, Khortysia was named one of the Seven Wonders of Ukraine in 2007. The island’s value rests in its historical associations with the unruly Zaporizhian Cossacks. They established a “sich” (a wooden fortress settlement) here in the 16th century, and maybe the most compelling piece of trivia is that they are believed to have composed their mocking reply to the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed IV on the island. This moment is engrained in Ukrainian folklore and recorded in a famous painting by the 19th-century painter Ilya Repin. There’s a museum on Khortytsia, which we’ll visit next, while the whole island is a national reserve, featuring 50-metre granite cliffs, large swathes of steppe and oak and spruce forest.

very good

Cool place about cossaks history!

Several spots to see in the island. Depending on what you do, you can make your tour exciting. Cool place for walking, hiking, cycling, chilling, swimming, exploring.

The island feels abandoned and surrounded by brutal industrial districts. Maybe because of lockdown or maybe because of weather, it felt the wrong destination for a holiday travel. Oh, but flowers were nice :)

It has been renovated and now the place looks amazing. The newly built spiral pathway upto the flag pole looks great at night.

We have got there in a rainy and cloudy day. Anyway we've got astonished by the views on Dnepr and on the damb. The fortress was built to reproduce the old cozacs fortress to film a movie about Taras Bulba - you can find this movie online. There are some souvenir shops as well as a small restaurant (if I can name ot this way) where you can find something to eat (national food) and drink). Recommended!

Not very impressive since lack of historical info. The performance of local Kossacs shows only fight methods witch is not very safe for audience anyway. But it's always good opportunity to see how it looked like in the past.

Natural reserve in the middle of the city. Great views over the Dneproges and the city, nice routs for bycicle rides. Sould be more beautiful while all the trees are green

Business or leisure Travellers in zaporizhzhia must visit this place. This is like beauty

A real-life railway operated by children sounds like a recipe for disaster, but these narrow-gauge lines are found all over the former USSR, from East Germany to Uzbekistan. They were created to educate future railway drivers, signal operators and conductors. So in truth it’s not children, but teenagers operating this train that clatters along a track for almost ten kilometres. The teens dress up in uniform and take charge of every job, from actually operating the throttle to selling tickets. The train can be boarded at the Komunarskyi District, just down from Dubovy Gai.

Not that interesting for children

Ok

(Translated by Google) Cool place to relax. Gorgeous green area. A huge variety of plants. Very beautiful on the birch alley. Well-groomed, clean, pleasant - for which I thank the staff. The aquarium provides a wide variety of fish. I have never seen such huge piranhas and a surprisingly active crocodile. The winter garden is also okay. We were pleased with the fish in the pond and some of the living creatures But the zoo disappointed... Children, of course, like it, but adults look at it from the other side. The enclosures are relatively clean, the animals are dirty and I would even say that some are hungry. The stench... I have no desire to go to the zoo. Well, in general, this is a wonderful place for a walk and relaxation! (Original) Классное место для отдыха. Шикарная зеленая территория. Огромное количество разнообразных растений. Очень красиво на березовой аллейке. Ухожено, чисто, приятно - за что спасибо сотрудникам. В аквариуме предоставлено большое разнообразие рыб. Таких огромных пираний я еще не видела и на удивление активного крокодила. Зимний сад тоже ничего. Порадовали рыбки в пруду и некоторая живность А вот зоопарк разочаровал... Детям, конечно, нравится, а вот взрослые смотрят с другой стороны. Вольеры относительно чистые, животные грязные и я бы даже сказала, что некоторые голодные. Вонь... Именно в зоопарк ходить желания нет. Ну а в общем, это замечательное место для прогулки и отдыха!

(Translated by Google) We've been here as a family several times before, but more than 10 years ago, exactly, when the eldest daughter was little. Now the youngest was 3 years old and decided to take a walk on the weekend (August 2019) to the sights and recreation areas of Zaporozhye (we are from Energodar). We arrived here in the morning, as it was very hot during the day (we already knew about this). Upon arrival, we realized that basically nothing had changed, but in general everything was still well maintained and the service was pleasant. We visited everything we could here: 1. The zoo is, of course, not Berdyansk or Odessa, but in principle for a ridiculous fee of 30 UAH. you can see deer, bears, wolves, foxes, birds, piglets, rams and goats, hares; 2. Aquarium - a lot of all kinds of fish and I was impressed by the rather large crocodile, which opened its mouth at us (there used to be also a terrarium with snakes). 3. Green winter garden - there is also something to see here, many different trees and bushes in one place, huge vines, ficuses, banana, lemon, dracaenas and many more, plus a small pool with goldfish. There's definitely something to see (also at a conservative price). 4. A small park area on the street - there are also a lot of green spaces and flowers, everything is well-groomed and beautiful with a landscape approach. 5. The children's train itself left a double impression, the train itself and what the children serve are interesting, but where it goes there is absolutely nothing to see, so don't expect to see anything interesting (the train simply passes through forest plantations with grass and weeds, there are no special places). Conclusion - here you can and should inexpensively visit the zoo, aquarium, winter garden and take a walk around the territory. But the train ride itself is not at all impressive, except for the child the feeling of the trip and that’s it! (Original) Раньше были здесь семьей несколько раз, но более 10 лет назад точно, когда старшая дочь была маленькая. Сейчас меньшей было 3 годика и решили прогуляться на выходных (август 2019) по достопримечательностям и местам отдыха Запорожья (сами из Энергодара). Приехали сюда с утра, так как днём очень жарко (мы уже знали об этом). По приезду поняли, что в принципе ничего не поменялось, но в целом всё также ухожено и обслуживание приятное. Посетили всё, что можно было здесь: 1. Зоопарк - это конечно не Бердянск и не Одесса, но в принципе за смешную плату в 30 грн. можно увидеть оленя, медведей, волка, лису, пернатых, поросят, баранов и козлов, зайцев; 2. Аквариум - много рыбок всяких и впечатлил немаленький крокодил, который раззевал на нас свою пасть (раньше был ещё и террариум со змеями). 3. Зелёный зимний сад - здесь тоже есть на что посмотреть, много разных деревьев и кустов в одном месте, огромные лианы, фикусы, банан, лимон, драцены и ещё много, плюс небольшой бассейн с золотыми рыбками. Точно есть на что посмотреть (тоже за консервативную цену). 4. Парковая небольшая зона на улице - также много зелёных насаждений и цветов, всё ухожено и красиво с ландшафтным подходом. 5. Сам детский поезд - оставил двоякое впечатление, сам поезд и что обслуживают дети интересно, но там где он едет там не на что абсолютно посмотреть, поэтому не рассчитывайте что-то увидеть интересное (поезд проходит просто по лесопосадкам с травой и сорняками, никаких особых мест нет). Заключение - здесь недорого можно и нужно посетить зоопарк, аквариум, зимний сад и погулять по территории. Но сама прогулка на поезде не впечатляет абсолютно, разве что только для ребёнка само ощущение поездки и всё!

(Translated by Google) A good place to spend time with family and escape from everyday worries. I was there with my family for May. Clean carriages, such nice and responsible “children workers”, a small zoo. I enjoyed visiting and walking through the landscaped area. (Original) Хорошее место для того, чтобы провести время с семьей и отвлечься от повседневных забот. Были с семьей на майские. Чистые вагоны, такие милые и ответственные "работники-дети", небольшой зоопарк. Я получила удовольствие от посещения и прогулки по облагороженной территории.

(Translated by Google) There is a very beautiful well-groomed area and a railway, but when you enter the aquarium and winter garden, you get the feeling that you have been deceived. The aquarium will take you a couple of minutes; there’s nothing to do there longer. The Nile crocodile, which sits in a tiny puddle, evokes only pity. There are very hungry mosquitoes in the winter garden and it is just as boring. (Original) Очень красивая ухоженная территория и железная дорога, но заходя в аквариум и зимний сад, появляется чувство, что тебя обманули. На аквариум у вас уйдет пару минут, дольше там делать нечего. Нильский крокодил, который сидит в малюсенькой луже, вызывает только жалость. В зимнем саду очень голодные комары и так же скучно.

Cool spot during City Birthday celebrations. Cute installations and many insta places.

Nice place for an outdoor walk. There are many trails and a duck pond.

Nice park, one of the favorite wedding places.

Lovely weather and good place for photography

Pretty good Park with a cool pond which has a lot of turtles

Nice park , popular place for city events such as some concerts or fairs. Good scenery, nice pond with ducks and turtles, fountains. Children playground, many benches. Two parking lots from both sides of the park. Cozy place. Also you will find kiosks and cafe with some snacks and drinks there. Be careful in that part next to Naberezhna because drivers don't care about speed limit.

A very good park with a pond inhabited by turtles and koy fish. There are rides for the kids (paid and free), a nice water mil feature. People, please don't feed the fish, the birds and other wild life bread. It kills them. There are no signs not to feed but please don't, just know that it kills them. On another note, the park could do with a bit more benches and seating options.

Delicious and exciting food. Very good service. We had salads, sushi, ramen and all were excellent. We will visit Sir Lancelot again for sure! Music was not very loud, but as in most Ukrainian restaurants modern noise. The restaurant should try something else, or no music at all. The food is so good, noise is not needed :)

Solid restaurant with great service and tasty food. Visited five or six times during my stay in Zaporizhzhia. Only one time food came out not in a great shape (my favorite tongue was dry and my daughter’s mashed potatoes wasn’t mashed how it suppose to be), besides that no complaints. The servers were super attentive, friendly and efficient. They helped me with my stroller every time and were patient with the mess my one-year-old daughter made. Nearly every meal we ordered was delicious. The green borsch brought the best childhood memories. Such an amazing experience! Thank you Sir Lancelot!

It's the best place for me in Zaporizhzhia! We celebrated our wedding here and now we often visit this place with children! I love the Middle ages atmosphere as well as delicious food and diversity of different meals! Thank you for your work!

Good food i have eating here with my girlfriend and ordered pizza, it was super size it almost didn't fit on the table. and the atmosphere is excellent friendly service, I will definitely want to eat here more often when I am in the area.

Unbelievably tasty sushi, I had rolls with mango sauce, they were a real masterpiece and a bliss for my palate. Both sweet and a little spicy, such a marvellous combination!

Nice ambience and friendly staff aswell tasty food

If you like steaks, go here

Went there with the girlfriend. Good place for a dinner for two. Possibly the best food I have had in zaporozhye, wine choices were excellent. Waiter that night was very attentive(though the place was empty) and generally service was good. It is pricey but the food and quality of service was more than worth the money spent. 5 star place.

Great atmosphere for relaxing.

Nice place to relax...but swimming in weekends is expensive than compared to other days.....still nice place n the swimming pool is not so deep

Found the food good and very nicely presented.

The whole compound with its facilities is very nice in overall

It's more expensive than average Zaporizhzhia restaurant

Nice pool and good restaurant

If u want local Ukrainian cuisine. It's one of the best place. Clean quick and efficient. The taste is immaculate. But if u are not into local Ukrainian food u shouldn't choose the place. Over all it was a nice experience.

Excellent service. Good food with reasonable prices. Nice Ukrainian modern folk music. They serve aperitif with local vodka for free. Well atmosphere. Open until 12 and orders until 11pm.

Been to this restaurant more than once. The dishes are simple - Ukrainian and Russian cuisine. The portions are excellent, you won't have to wait long - delicious borsch, dumplings, bacon. If you want this particular cuisine, then at a reasonable price this is the right place. The flavor is very well conveyed. Fast food cafe. If you order rolls for more than 1000 rubles, then a roll and rersi cola are given as a gift. It's a bomb for foreigners :)

Went there on an afternoon and were seated at a nice table in a not too busy restaurant. The service was excellent and very helpful and the price was very reasonable. We had a delightful time in a relaxing atmosphere. The food was very ordinary though and not as good as we were expecting.

Very nice restaurant to eat ukranian food

We have really enjoyed our time in this restaurant. Bright atmosphere and good food. Деруни were really really good, this was a good surprise. This inside is pretty, specially the private room!

It's a very good restaurant. We normally have dinner and even if our menu is limited because the meal is included whit the room it's very tasty. Waitresses are very polite. I suggest it.

We went there with a group of friends. Tables were booked in advance. Very welcomed by the smiling staffs and kindly seated. Nice hot food served in an acceptable time. Presentation was excellent, every dish was delicious and one patient staff served us all! No complaints at all. Definitely the best place to be around here. Highly recommended.

Very tasty food, menu was with pictures, high level of service... just one thing, when we ordered mai tai cocktail, we dont feel the alcohol , the waiter was rude and dont want to change it

They allowed us to open our French bottle of Champagne for only 150 UAH. Food was very tasty, especially fish cooked in wok with many spices

Unfortunately its using their 24/7 schedule .. Food is ok. Sushi so so, I guess it depends on stock of fish that they have. Some problems with doing cocktails, Margarita big time. Warm margarita on photo 🤢 Service 🤭

Nice prices, tasty unique dishes, fast service, pretty interior, good location. My favourite “White fish fillet in a wok with vegetables and spicy sauce”.

A nice restaurant with delicious food and cozy interior and terrace. Nice staff. The only negative side for me is when something is grilled or accidentally burnt in the kitchen, the space inside turns smelly and foggy.

Very tasty food and elegant environment but better to book. It is very trendy thus it might be difficult to find the table. The service is as well very efficient and waiters very polite.

Nice Georgian (the country, not the state) restaurant. Pretty close to what you can get in real Georgia. I felt very welcomed there. We have Georgian cheese plate, adjaruli (a dough with cheese and egg), some Georgian snacks and khinkali (Georgian meat dumplings). Everything was pretty authentic.

Quick and welcoming service, tasty food, happy we dropped by for a dinner here :)

It's really nice restaurant. The main benefit is an original cuisine. The air is permeated with friendliness. In addition, huge respect to the administrator, who is really attentive person and professional. So I highly recommend this restaurant!

Unfortunately, I didn't really liked this place because the tables are situated in a very long room, my chair was too close to my neighbor's. The Megrelski khachapuri was fine, not wonderful and the dessert, pelamushi, was too sweet and sugary. The service was good but could be better.

Probably the best Georgian restaurant in Zaporozhye. The khinkaly are the way they should be (with lamb), khachapuri are great, make sure you try desert khachapuri with apple and cinnamon!

Delicious and great prices

That's an interesting place. You may find a good traditional georgian meals here and fast & nice stuff. They are likely to please you, so fon't forget some tips ;)
