Voronezh attracts guests with sights of historical and cultural value (there are business centers and new buildings, noble estates and "Khrushchevs"), as well as the opportunity to view them from a bird flight (observation platforms of Voronezh will help to cope with this task).
Review of the best observation decks
- The Chizhov Gallery Center (the height of the Voronezh skyscraper is 100 m; 25 floors): from here you can see the whole of Voronezh with its suburbs. It is worth noting that all the floors of the building are decorated in different ways, so thanks to the original design solution you will be able to “visit” Tokyo, Paris, Cairo, London, Amsterdam and other cities, as well as admire the vertical “Waterfall” fountain and the “Clock” fountain. Address: Koltsovskaya Street, 35. Free excursions involving the ascent to the observation deck are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 18:00, on Fridays and Saturdays at 16:00, and on Sundays from 12:00 to 14:00. Interested in an individual approach with the ability to attend an excursion at a convenient time for you? This pleasure will cost you 300 rubles (pre-registration).
- Observation deck located at Children's Lane. Arriving here, you will be able to admire the Admiralteyskaya embankment and the Voronezh reservoir.
- Annunciation Cathedral (Russian-Byzantine style; the height of the cathedral is more than 80 m): in order to climb the bell tower (an elevator is provided for this purpose), you must first register at the cathedral shop (on Easter, everyone is allowed here to ring bells decorated with bas-reliefs with faces saints, and in addition, they tell about the structure of the belfry, how to “ring” correctly, what ringing is characteristic for various church holidays). Address: Revolution Avenue, 14B.
Cafe "Il Tokio"
Having visited the institution in the summer, you should sit on the summer veranda to admire the city, enjoy Japanese and Italian cuisine, and forget about everyday worries (at other times of the year it makes sense to sit at a table near the large panoramic windows). Address: Revolution Avenue, 33B (8th floor).
Bald mountain
From its top (it rises almost 50 m above the level of the river), you will see a picturesque view of the left bank of the Voronezh River, where pine forests darken. It is worth noting that there are small Scythian burial grounds there.
Flight excursion
Having resorted to the services of the Solnechny helicopter club, you will be able to admire the Annunciation Cathedral, Alye Parusa park, Admiralteyskaya Square and other objects from a height (approximate cost - about 10,000 rubles / 15 minutes for two).
