About this place
In the central part of Cherkasy, it is hard to miss the blue building that resembles a fairy-tale castle. This is what the refined Blue Palace, designed by V. Horodetskyi, looks like. The building was erected in the Art Nouveau and Gothic styles. Its facades are decorated with balconies with pilasters and stucco, elongated pointed windows and numerous spires on the facade.
