Potemkin Stairs
The Stairs was built in 1837. It was a gift of Prince Vorontsov to his wife.

The length of the stairs is 142 meters and it is made of 192 steps. The top of the stairs seems perfectly straight. This effect Odessa engineers have achieved with the help of perspective construction: the bottom of the stairs is 7 meters wider than the top. On top of the stairs you can find amazing panorama of the harbor; you will see the sea port and the gulf of Odessa from there.
Sea Port
Potemkin Stairs leads you to the seaport.

You can take 40-minute boat tour on the waterfront. After the tour you may see the port itself. The large passenger liners come into this port in summer time.
Aerial Ropeway
This is an unusual transport which helps you to get from the beach to Frantsuzsky Boulevard (French Boulevard). You have to jump in and jump out of it while it moves very slowly. You will enjoy nice views on your way.
Privoz Market
The first Privoz buyers and traders appeared in 1827. Since then, the market changed a lot. But no matter how advanced it has become, at first glance it is a typical bazaar where you can taste the local food and buy the best and the freshest fish. On Privoz, as on the Turkish Grand Bazaar, you should definitely bargain.

Privoz has a lot of interesting stories. According to one of them the treasure is hidden somewhere on the market territory. It was the treasure of the former market owner who disappeared one day and was never found.
Catacombs
Odessa catacombs cover the underground workings of XIX and early XX centuries. This is a grand system of partly linked underground quarries. The history of Odessa catacombs is not fully investigated till now. To get there you can book a tour.

Palaces
If you want to get away from the present and plunge into history you should visit the palaces and museums of Odessa. Vorontsov Palace is an architectural pearl of Odessa. It is located at the end of Primorsky Boulevard. Irrespective of the fact that the palace is a mixture of different architectural styles it gives the impression of lightness and elegance.
