A powerful defensive fortification of the Old City, a fortress and a bridge, monasteries and churches- all leave an unforgettable impression. Among the places of interests there are a Cathedral Roman Catholic Church of Apostles Petr and Pavel (XVI-XVIII cent.), a Turkish Minaret (Mosque), a Franciscan Roman Catholic Church (XIV-XVIII cent.), the Town Hall (XIV-XIX cent.), the Nikolay’s Church (XIV cent.), etc. The Old City is located on the peninsula, surrounded by a picturesque canyon of Smotrych River. This is why it is still preserving a fantastic view of old times and has a tremendous historical value.
