Donetsk Travel Guide
Donetsk (Uk. Донецьк. Ru. Донецк) is a city situated in south-eastern Ukraine on the Kalmius River (see map). With a population of roughly 970,000 inhabitants, it is Ukraine's fourth largest city and one of the country's major industrial, scientific and cultural centers.
Despite the reputation of many industrial cities (particularly those with an iron and steel industry), it is surprising to learn that Donetsk is a relatively green and unpolluted city. In fact, it is considered one of Ukraine's most beautiful cities with one of the country's highest standards of living. This is evident in the city's diverse range of cultural attractions. It has three city theaters, a philharmonic hall, a circus, a planetarium, and literally dozens of museums. It is also home to annual international festivals including The Stars of the World's Ballet, The Festival of Young Pianists, and The Festival of Smith Art.
