The faces and colors of Ukraine

The land of Bukovyna, where Olga lived, worked and died is a delightful world of nature with thick forests and rippling waterfalls. It is also rich in national culture and traditions, legends, and songs, and golden waves of corn fields. The Hutsels, folk costumes, wood-carving, embroidery and painted Easter eggs can still be found here. This area has also been rich with famous people; the talented Ukrainian poet Yury Fedkovich (1834-1888), the outstanding Ukrainian actor and film-producer Ivan Mykolaichuk (1941-1987), a famous composer Sydir Vorobkevich (1836-1903) and numerous contemporaries such as writer Myhailo Ivasyuk, famous author, singer Volodymyr Ivasyuk and many others from the world of dance, art and science.
