After the tour, guests can be offered a tasting of finished products and workshops on the production of cheese.

Trayan's Wall near the village of Tabaky is part of a system of earthen ramparts preserved from the times of the Roman Empire, which was built on the territory of Podillya, Bessarabia and Dobrudsh. It was a kind of southeastern border of the empire during its heyday in the 2nd century AD, during the reign of Emperor Trayan.

Trayan's Wall in the territory of Bessarabia is 150 kilometers long. It originates from the village of Vadul-lui-Isac (Moldova), then extends into the territory of Ukraine, crosses the village of Tabaky and rests on a high steep bank against Lake Sasyk. A memorial sign to this ancient border has been erected between the villages of Borysivka and Hlyboke, which are located on the shore of Lake Sasyk.

Near the village of Tabaky, crossing modern highways, sections of the rampart have been preserved, which give an idea of ​​the power of these engineering structures.

In the middle Dnipro region, similar structures are called Serpent's Wall.
