Sights

This is a medium-sized, attractive, and cozy little town. In the town center there is a large square graced by a charming fountain, with a market and a yarmarka nearby. The town's central park is a particular draw: carousels, swings, benches, green pathways, and an abundance of various trees. Also worth noting is the extraordinarily beautiful, grand railway station, which resembles an ancient castle.
