landscapes

nature

Dorohe's natural environment is characterized by vast plains and agricultural fields that stretch as far as the eye can see. These landscapes reflect the richness of the lands, known for their fertility and productivity.

HOUSES

The houses are typical of Ukrainian rural areas, with simple and functional structures. Many of them are built with local materials and have sloping roofs to withstand winter snowfall. Gardens and orchards adjacent to homes are common, where owners grow fruits and vegetables for domestic consumption.

CEMETERY

Near Dorohe, there is a small cemetery. This space is part of the rural landscape, in harmony with the fields and orchards that surround it. Its close location highlights the community's connection to its roots.

kurgan

Nearby we also find a Kurgan, local historical tombs where scythians (old civilization) were buried. In 19-20th centuries in Ukranie most of those tombs were carefully excavated, and archeologists were taking out scythian gold. In Kurgan cultures, most burials were in kurgans, either clan or individual. Most prominent leaders were buried in individual kurgans, now called "royal kurgans". These individual kurgans have attracted the most attention and publicity because they were more elaborate than clan kurgans and contained grave goods.

Its distinctive shape, although eroded by time, remains a landmark on the horizon, adding an air of mystery and history to the surroundings.
