You must go up the tower. The ticket to the tower is 130 Ukrainian currency per person, which is 30 yuan, which is still acceptable. It is more cost-effective than domestic attractions. It is 100 yuan per person if you don't go up the tower. You don't need a ticket at night, but you can't see the scenery. It is beautiful to take pictures during the day. It is worth a visit. Basically, there are people getting married every three or five days. You can experience the sacred local wedding. Generally, you can go to the wedding at 1 pm to see the ceremony.
The cave monastery, built in 1051, is one of the religious centers of the Orthodox Church. It was included in the World Heritage Site in 1990. If time permits, it can be reserved for half a day. There are many places to visit and sell honey.

In the evening, the autumn breeze of October accompanied by the setting sun in the Du Square, attracting citizens who came out for a stroll and retaining tourists who were walking in a hurry.
A bustling , vibrant place with panoramic Dnipro river views, strolling tourists, terraces offering Ukrainiam, Italian and Crimean-Tartar cusine, this glorious heart of a freedom-loving nation is a must-see.
