Відвідали виставку картин Івана Марчука. Дуже цікаво бачити, наскільки Україна багата на творців...

I went in looking for someone simply to ask where I could buy tickets, two people approached me, sorry but especially this woman who just wouldn’t stop talking, it was annoying. Have these people ever considered that in a museum in one of the world-famous cities, there might actually be tourists who don’t speak Ukrainian? This female staff who talked endlessly and at way too fast a pace, without letting me interrupt, just wasted my time. She didn’t even bother to realize that my broken Russian might make understanding Ukrainian even more impossible. It felt more like she was monotonously reciting a memorized script, completely ignoring what her conversation partner actually wanted at that moment. I thought, just leave me alone and show me where I can buy the tickets finally.. I didn’t ask for a presentation. Also, I wish the museum would live up to its name a bit more. I asked about the older history of the city, but it seemed like the language barrier was less the problem than their actual willingness to engage with the visitor.

Мне понравилось не дорого по 100 грн на человека и очень красиво картини Марчука
