Національний дендрологічний парк «Софіївка» / Il parco di Sofiïvka Uman urban hromada

"Sofiyivka" is a monument of landscape type of world garden and park art of the end of the XVIII - first half of the XIX century. It grows more than 3323 taxa. In 2007, the park's plant collection included 2,103 tree taxa and 1,212 herbaceous taxa. The park was created in an almost forestless area, divided by the river Kamyanka, beams and canyons, which crashed into the granite, which often came to the surface. When creating the park, the relief was skillfully used, but without a pre-planned plan. The main composition of the park runs along the Kamyanka riverbed, where a number of independent pools and ponds have been built: Upper - more than 8 hectares, Lower - about 1.5 hectares and others, waterfalls (one of them 14 m high), locks, cascades, underground river Acheron (length 224 m). The park is decorated with rocks (Lefkada, Tarpeia), grottoes (Venus, "Nut", "Fear and Doubt"), pavilions (Flora, Pink), gazebos, sculpture. Due to the arrangement of different tree species, combining them with reservoirs, rocks and architectural structures, created views and perspectives of different plans (Main Avenue, English Park, Champs Elysees and others).
