THE "BIG FOUNTAIN" DISTRICT (BOLSHOI FONTAN)

Street square and neighborhood to visit

By bus No. 127 which leaves from the train station or bus No. 161, we pass through the very nice district named Grande Fontaine, occupied by very nice dacha. When you spend more than four days in Odessa, this neighborhood is a real pleasure to visit. By staying in the bus to the station "16 th station" (16 aya stantsia), you can reach a beautiful monastery built on a course. Attached to the Moscow Patriarchate, this monastery has always played a major role in the seminar. Currently 300 seminarians are studying. You can visit a small church where you will recognize three murals: Annunciation, Visitation and Epiphany. The by the backwash of the sea deafening on the walls of the monastery, this visit is a true moment of peace and serenity.
