The castle was phenomenal, so real, falling apart, easy to kill yourself with no safety or protection and riddled with bad stairs and safety hazards. But it was real and that's what I loved about it. So many castles are restored to look perfect, however this one hasn't had the financing to be restored and that's it's appeal; well that and its size, which is amazing. It's perhaps falling apart since the entrance fee is only 1.50 grevna, about $.30.

The views of the castle are just as impressive as the views of the Black Sea. If ever in Odesa, it’s not to be missed; a statement apparently only taken to heart by myself and four others, which was everyone in the castle.
