Prof. L. G. Melnyk’s lecture

Linden and sakura alley in Uzhhorod. Unfortunately, sakura have already faded and limes have only start blooming	Uzhhorod always surprises with its exoticism. Inaccessible Uzhhorod Castle, which is over 800 years old
Nevitsky castle in Uzhhorod countryside surrounded by greenery. Its history is full of legends	Even today Nevitsky Castle seems mysterious and enigmatic
City Hall (now Mukacheve City Hall)	Mukacheve residents believe that the button on the clothing of one of the last city chimney sweepers brings good luck. By the way, the prototype of the monument – a real chimney sweeper is fortunately alive
It seems to be the only Cyril and Methodius monument in Ukraine, the creators (in the IX century) of Slavic alphabet, which allowed adapting the pre-existing in Russia “Velesovitsa” Alphabet and “Glagolitic” that emerged later to the Greek alphabet	Now try to understand who is right: some people argue that the Cyrillic alphabet brought originality to the Slavic languages, while others claim that it created barriers to entry into the culture of Western Europe. Apparently, both sides are right

The depth of the well in the Castle is about 75 m. It saved the defenders of the castle many times	Mukacheve Castle panorama from high walls
It’s hard to believe that these delicate flowers do not grow on a flowerbed, …	… but on a vertical granite wall of an impregnable castle
