Excursion "Greeks + Jews = Odessa"

We invite you to the excursion "Greeks + Jews = Odessa" Unusual format, author's approach, new route. It is known that our city was created by the efforts of many people from Odessa of different nationalities. And among them, the Greeks and Jews stood out for their active character, with whom the formation of Odessa and the formation of its atmosphere are associated. Two ancient, two eternally young people are closely intertwined with Odessa. They were present at her birth, rocked her cradle, sang their songs to her. Some of the most (in Odessa they love everything "the most") significant sons and daughters of these peoples were born, or lived a little, in Odessa. They gave their work and talent to the city, which is for everyone! We invite you to take a walk in the company of two guides who have been fascinated by the history of these peoples since their school years.
