    I was there in 2019, it was a cozy town and I liked it. I prefer Lviv though, mainly because I don't understand Ukrainian, and in Lviv, it was easier to find people who spoke Russian and English. Both places are worth a visit though, and I was traveling from Chisinau to Lviv so it was on the way toward Lviv.

    I haven't known we had cities like that. Kherson also have many wonderful sight things and beautiful pre-revolutionary architecture, but I'm used to the fact, that major part of our cities are full of concrete blocks where people live and unrestored old buildings. And then I've seen Chernivtsi and was like: "DAMN" :D

It's been longer in Independent Ukraine - 32 full years now. Not to mention Holy Roman/Austrian/Austria-Hungary Empire - 140 years, not to mention Ottoman Empire. There was a period before Ottomans and after Ruthenia, when Chernivtsi were a part of Moldova. But it's not Romania lol. So stop your coping please.

    This city belongs to Ukraine only since 1945, until then it was majority romanian part of Romania. Before that ist also belonged to the Habsburg Empire, but still majority romanian. It has little to do with Ukraine, that can be seen in the architecture which is very different from the typical ukrainian city. Even today all the territories south of Chernivitsi up to the romanian border is majority romanian.

  • @wyqtor
    @wyqtor 2 роки тому +9

    Cernăuți was a 50% Romanian, 50% Ukrainian city, part of Romania. It was stolen by the Soviet Union, first in 1940 by the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact before WWII, then again in 1944 as the Axis was losing the war. We gave it up completely in 1993 in exchange for a border treaty with Ukraine, which ultimately allowed us to get into NATO and avoid Ukraine's fate, as Russia wouldn't dare to invade a NATO country. A painful, but ultimately smart course of action.

    I lived in Ukraine for several years, after I first went there in 2012. I lived in several places while there and visited around 9 cities in Ukraine, but I never got to visit Chernivtsi. Obviously, I'd heard as well as read about Chernivtsi, and I also have a Ukrainian friend here in England who I've known for about 5 years who is originally from Chernivtsi. However, I never visited, as it always seemed out of the way, being in its unique geographical position in Ukraine.
    I am sure it's a very beautiful city, but it's clearly smaller than Lviv and much smaller than Prague. I would definitely like to eventually visit Chernivtsi after the war is over. But in terms of beauty, there are many beautiful cities in Ukraine. Kyiv has many beautiful parts, so do Odessa, Lviv and many other cities in Ukraine.
    It's interesting though how you pointed out that Chernivtsi was one of the few cities that wasn't devastated during WW2. Because, as I understand it, the Chernivtsi Oblast, is the only region in the whole of Ukraine, that hasn't been attacked by Russian missile strikes or drone attacks in the current war that is going on. Again, this must be partly to do with Chernivtsi's geographical location.
    I watch your videos regularly, as I love the part of the world that you are in. You and Angela, take care and thanks for the video footage that you provide for us. Slava Ukraini!

    The two secret of this city are probably these:
    1. Built by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, as Bukovina was part of the direct Austrian rule (so the finance was in safe hands, mean less corruprion). This era finished after WW1.
    2. The biggest jewish community there in the whole Monarchy boosted the economy of the city. Sadly this also finished after the WW2.
    Ukraine inherited these two diamonds (together with Lviv) as a gift from a culture, they originally do nothing...

    • @wyqtor
      @wyqtor 2 роки тому +1

      More like 'stolen' courtesy of Stalin. And if you think the Austro-Hungarian Empire wasn't corrupt, you've got to be kidding. Basically everyone who wasn't Austrian, German, or Hungarian was a 2nd class citizen, with limited to no rights. Under Romanian rule, Cernăuți prospered and had almost equal Romanian-Ukrainian populations. Only afterwards did the Ukrainians and Russians ethnically cleanse everyone else, in the name of communism, perhaps.

    No interest in going to Ukraine. A whole world out there to be in, than a country at war, with dodgy power, internet, water and such.
    But thanks for the tour.

      @@juicybear7696 And I will go back when it is. When you can fly in, and there is no war, and the power, internet, water and such are like any other country.
      But not until then. There are another 100 plus counties in the world to visit and live in.

      @@johndale1300 lol good thing I would be going for one woman then. 😉
      Interestingly, I was talking with my girl recently about black men, since I am in NY at the moment. And she saw some in my photos. And she said she had never seen one in person. But dating a black man not her thing. It doesn’t appeal.
      My last girlfriend was black, just as an aside.
      But I take your point about white guys. 🙂
      Built I don’t need to go to Ukraine to see my girl. So why would I? And gives her a good break from all that shit that is going on.
      She won’t relocate, but leaving the country for a while she is all good with.
      And when the war is over. We shall see when I go back.
