General information about Vorzel
The resort village of Vorzel is located among pine and oak forests 20 kilometers northwest of Kyiv, on the Kyiv-Sarny Warsaw highway.
It arose at the beginning of the 20th century as a country village near the Kovel railway. The country house of Countess Uvarova, daughter of patron Fedir Tereshchenko (1913), has been preserved.
Academicians Feofil Yanovskyi and Mykola Strazhesko were the first to note the benefits of Vorzel's climate, due to the mixed oak-pine forest. Thanks to the exceptional natural and climatic conditions, the development of the sanatorium-resort infrastructure began. Vorzel sanatoriums specialize in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
A natural landmark is a relict 30-meter tulip tree.
Курортне селище Ворзель розташоване серед соснових та дубових лісів в 20 кілометрах на північний захід від Києва, на Варшавській трасі Київ-Сарни.
Виникло на початку XX сторіччя як дачне селище поруч з Ковельської залізницею. Зберігся дачний будиночок графині Уварової, дочки мецената Федора Терещенка (1913 рік).
Користь ворзельського клімату, обумовленого змішаним дубово-сосновим лісом, першими відзначили академіки Феофіл Яновський і Микола Стражеско. Завдяки винятковим природно-кліматичним умовам почався розвиток санаторно-курортної інфраструктури. Ворзельські санаторії спеціалізуються на лікуванні серцево-судинних захворювань.
Природна пам'ятка - реліктове 30-метрове тюльпанове дерево.

The country house of Countess Nataliya Uvarova in Vorzel was built at the beginning of the 20th century by the manufacturer Karl Septer.
Countess Uvarova (in maidenhood Tereshchenko) liked the then fashionable architecture of the building with a romantic tower and weather vane. After buying it, the countess decorated her possessions with various rare plants and trees of valuable breeds. A fountain was installed near the house, gravel paths were laid.

Tulip Tree
Natural object
The tulip tree or tulip liriodendron is not directly related to tulips - it is a relative of the magnolia.
It comes from the north-east of America, where it reaches a height of 50-60 meters. It has a leaf of an unusual shape - without a tip. The tree got its name thanks to the delicate yellow-green flowers, similar to tulips.
In Vorzel, a tulip tree was planted in 1914 at the manor of Zherebtsov, secretary of the Kyiv Zemstvo Administration. This tulip tree is one of the largest in Ukraine (they say that there are only two of them in the country, but in fact there are about 30). Its height is about 30 meters, and the diameter of the trunk is more than one meter. Blooms in late May - early June.
