Park / garden
The "Oleksandria" State Dendrological Park of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine was established in 1793 by the crown hetman Frantsishek Ksaveriy Branytskyi and named after his wife Oleksandra.
Bila Tserkva Park was considered one of the best in Europe. The plan was developed by the French park developer Muffot. The park covers more than 200 hectares, has 25 reservoirs, and has 2,500 species of plants, including those from South America, China, and Japan: red oak, tulip tree, Kobus magnolia, Japanese rhododendron, and others.
The basis of the planning is the Great Lawn, from which a network of alleys, decorated with park architecture and sculptures, runs for 20 kilometers: "Romantic Ruins", "Chinese Bridge", "Lion" spring and others. The "Echo" colonnade has unique acoustics: a word spoken in a whisper at one end of the colonnade is heard at the opposite end. According to legend, Prince Potemkin-Tavriyskyi is buried under the Rotunda.
The summer palace of the Branytskys was destroyed during the Soviet period, but the "Ball Pavilion" has already been restored in its original form.
In the garden "Moor" (year 1816) with an area of 4 hectares, surrounded by a stone wall 3 meters high, more than 300 fruit and berry crops from all continents of the world are grown (excursions with tastings are held).
The highest point of the park is Paliy Mountain, on which a monument to Semen Paliy is erected.
The building of the "Economic Yard" now houses the directorate and Living Nature, Flora and Fauna Museum of the Park "Oleksandriya", which features marble park sculptures. You can buy seedlings here.

The Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin in Parkhomivka was built in 1906 by the will of the industrialist and philanthropist Viktor Holubev by his sons.
Architect Volodymyr Pokrovskyi implemented the project in a modern style, unconventional for Orthodoxy, using the architectural forms of Novhorod churches of the 13th century. The monumental mosaics "The Protection of the Mother of God" and "The Savior Not Made by Hands" were made based on the sketches of Mykola Rerikh, who was friends with the orientalist Viktor Holubev, one of the Holubev brothers.
There are many elements of Eastern symbolism in the external and internal design, which is why the temple was consecrated only in 1907.
