The city was founded in 1789 by the Order Of Count Potyomkin of Tavria as a shipbuilding center to become the major shipbuilding base of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. Since then, the craft and the skill of shipbuilders and engineers have grown constantly from generation to generation. Nikolaev is also a part of a unique nature and complex climate made up by the South Ukraine steppe and the warm Black Sea.
Within Ukraine Nikolaev is famous as the city of russian brides. When you are sitting in Nikolaev's cafes in summer on our main street Sovetskaya you will not be able to take your eyes off the street where stunningly beautiful single nikolaev ladies are walking alone or with others.
When you come to our town on business or other cases, don't be hurry to look for a room in a hotel. It's time to think about an alternative variant - a private, comfortable, and cozy apartment in a center of the town.
