Once the playground of Russian
royalty, this city where Pushkin and Gogol lived continues as a major
cultural center. During World War II, Odessa suffered major damage, but many of the 19th century French-style buildings reminiscent of St. Petersburg survived. Among the many monuments are the Vorontsov Palace, the remains of the Turks' fortress Enu Dunia, and the former Stock Exchange. Stroll on Primorsky Boulevard, ending at the historic Potemkin staircase that encompasses 192 steps and extEnd 455 feet. The pride and glory is the neo-classical Opera House that saw musical events conducted by Tchaikovsky and ballets featuring Anna Pavlova.
Pier Information. The ship will be docked at the Odessa Port. The city center is approximately 1.5 miles from the port. If you decide to climb the famous Potemkin Steps, it will take about 15 minutes to reach downtown. Taxis are usually available at the quayside.
Shopping. Deribasovskaya is the central
street of the old city; the 6-block pedestrian mall is its main shopping
area. Here are souvenirs and designer clothing. Odessa City Garden
(Gorsad) is the famous artisan’s market, where you can buy paintings,
gemstones, amber, handmade lace, etc.
Cuisine. Odessa cuisine consists
principally of Ukrainian, Russian, and Jewish dishes. There are also
Georgian, Turkish and Italian restaurants in Odessa, and many open air
cafés along Deribasovskaya Street or near the Opera.

Vorontsov Palace, to the left of the colonnade, there is the
