Chernivtsi, Regional capital in southwestern Ukraine

Chernivtsi extends across the Prut River, with modern neighborhoods expanding on both banks and connecting to the Carpathian foothills.

The city transformed from a Moldavian settlement in 1408 to an Austrian administrative center in 1774 and later became part of Ukraine.

The University of Chernivtsi, established in 1875, operates from a former Metropolitan residence building with detailed architectural elements and decorative patterns.

Multiple railways connect Chernivtsi to Lviv, Ternopil, Moldova, and Romania, making it an important transportation center in southwestern Ukraine.

The city developed separate quarters for different ethnic communities, resulting in distinct architectural styles within each neighborhood.
