Ukraine was a member of the former Soviet Union, but is now an independent country.
In Japan, only disturbing news such as Russia's annexation of the Crimean Peninsula is broadcast, but the city I visited was a very peaceful tourist destination.
However, although there were many tourists from Europe, I saw very few tourists from Asia.
There are many things to see, prices are low, and the people are very kind, so I think it's a country that more tourists should visit.
I saw many people wearing embroidered traditional costumes around town, so handmade items may also be popular.
At the hand binding workshop, the author himself, who has mastered the art of hand binding, carefully produces each book by hand.
The main text is tied with thread, making the book easy to open, strong and durable.
In addition to enjoying the photos as a small book, you can also use it as a small interior decoration for your room.
